Re: Turmeric
Just getting on this as I haven't been on the board in a while. I take 300 mg. (Solaray brand with 95% curcumin) twice a day, for a total of 600 mg.
But, I also sprinkle turmeric on my oatmeal (weird, I know! I've gotten used to it and like the color and taste), along with lots of pepper when I'm cooking it. I event put a splash of olive oil on top, too. Both turmeric and pepper are really great additions to many different dishes, from vegetables to rice!
