Health Thru Nutrition Curcu-Gel 650mg BCM-95® Curcugreen Turmeric Curcumin| High Absorption | Healthy Inflammation Response | Clinically Studied | 3rd Party Tested | Non-GMO (Pack of 60)

I stopped using this about a year ago and recently started again...glad I did. I use it with pepper extract and it seems to enhance overall well being and pain relief (i.e.inflamation)...this is the best cucumin product I have found and I wish they would enclude the pepper extract.

This product was recommended by a doctor friend specifically because it was concentrated and fast absorbing. The pills are large, but swallow easily with no aftertaste. Though subtle, these seem to be helping reduce some inflammation symptoms I was experiencing. I personally have had no side effects. I'm new to using supplements and use very few. Sometimes, however, the physical body needs a little help in rebalancing itself, especially after a stressful period in life. I have learned that some supplement combinations are absorbed more quickly and effectively than others. Remember to always read and educate yourself to know the differences.

I have been suffering from high inflammation that I never discovered until I went to see my doctor last year around August 2013. He took blood tests and it showed that I had low iron, low vitamin D, and my hormones were out of whack. Also, he tested my inflammation levels and they were pretty high as well. My gamma globulin and protein levels in my blood were also very high. That was a big concern for him because it can lead to cancer and other problems down the road so he had me come in every 3-6 months for blood tests to check my inflammation/gamma globulin levels. I was on iron and vitamin d supplements as well. On my own research I decided to take curcumin to see if it will help with the inflammation. After not seeing my doctor for about 6 months I went back for my blood tests. The news came back that my inflammation levels have dropped and so has my gamma globulin levels! I honestly feel that taking this particular brand of curcumin has helped with my inflammation levels dropping. My husband over the years had to massage my legs before going to bed because they were always sore and swollen. But now he asked if I need a massage and I tell him no that I'm fine. We used to take the other brand Terry Naturally which is also really good, but it is also more expensive for the same thing you get with this product. You gotta take it for at least a few weeks. I took it religiously, one pill first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. By the time I started taking it to the time I saw my doctor for my blood tests, 5 months had passed. So give it a try because I'm ordering another bottle as soon as I'm done writing this. Good Luck!

I ordered this after a nurse instructor said that this is the one they use in many of the Turmeric studies that have such great results. That is why I choose this Turmeric even though it is more pricey than some. I want consistent high dosage. This nurse is a very dynamic 65 year old who doesn't want knee replacements because they "don't ski well" She takes this 3X day and is able to do a daily walk with stairs without knee pain despite needing knee replacements. I was interested in a good anti inflammatory and didn't want to take tons of them. I don't have joint pain but I am overweight and eat too much sugar which I know causes inflammation and damage throughout the body. Imagine my surprise when I got an unexpected benefit. I have been low energy most of my life and I have recently tracked it down to adrenal fatigue. It seems that Turmeric helps a calcified pineal gland which helps the adrenals. (Floride in our drinking water will calcify the pineal gland) All I know is that I have more energy than I have ever had in my life. I am 47. I have always had to push myself to do things. I was always thinking about how to do things in ways that conserved energy. Anyway, I have been able to work 30% more and earn 30% more which is energizing in itself. I always thought my energy level was depression or a character defect of laziness. (no anti depressants ever helped by the way) What a surprise to discover it was a physical, nutritional problem. I have been taking the Turmeric 2X day for 8 months now and have had persistent sense well being that is entirely new to me. I also am prone to swollen painful feet each summer in the heat. This year after taking turmeric and a high dose Vit B 50 Complex since December I have no swollen feet, even on hot days with a a lot of walking. There are lots of supplements out there. I have been looking for a few fundamental ones that cover a lot of bases. I will be taking this product ongoingly. Another positive side effect. People in India who eat a lot of Turmeric don't get Alzheimer. Turmeric is a hack of a lot cheaper than Alzheimer's.

Helps to reduce knee pain......for about two months I suffered with knee pains. I could not sleep at night, and just fell asleep from sheer exhaustion. I had several xrays and MRI's, and was scheduled for orthoscopic surgery on both knees this past December. I found these and another supplement on Amazon and ordered both. Meanwhile, I started praying for relief, because my knees hurt so badly, especially when I tried to sleep! I prayed every night......before I realized it, my pains were actually diminishing! It got to be where I was virtually pain-free! I still pray every night, but now I give our Lord "thanks" for healing me! I'm going to continue these supplements, as long as I can afford to buy them, but I must say that I WAS HEALED, and I truly believe it was a MIRACLE! Thank You, Jesus!
