I was doing a little snooping around looking for other anti-inflammatory herbs and ran across this article:

http://www.naturalmedicinejournal.co...mmation-update

I found it interesting because it was a revisit of curcumin which apparently has anti inflammatory properties, BUT the article also mentioned the curcumin-PC-phytosome which I had previously read about. The Curcumin-PC-phytosome increases the bio availability of curcumin 18 fold! On a whim, I googled "curcumin-PC-phytosome" and discovered that the stuff is commercially available from many "health stores." Now THAT is news. Here we have a curcumin that is FAR more bio available than standard curcumin? ...and it is readily available? I"m going to have to do some more reading, but my mind is sufficiently piqued.
