Re: Turmeric
We have cancer patients at M.D. Anderson who are just on curcumin
I suppose this is given as a supplement at M.D. Anderson?? I have not looked for curcumin as a supplement.
My onc has told me he puts turmeric on all kinds of foods. As an onc, I'm sure he realizes the benefits of knocking back inflamation as much as possible for a number of reasons.
