Hope This Helps Someone
Anyway, I decided that I wasn't going to let it go to waste. Although I had my RA pain under control, I though I would take this and see what happened.
My results were very interesting. I'm at that age where I had started getting "hot flashes" and after 3 days on Curamin they completely disappeared. WHAT ARE RELIEF!
I don't take the curamin all the time, but anytime I experience a hot flash I go back to taking Curamin, I swear by it to control hot flashes, haven't noticed other benefits but I don't usually take it long enough for it to do alot. (I have a strong aversion to taking pills).
Just to let you know that Market America is known for their quality products and they have a product called Curcumin Extreme. You can access it through www.marketamerica.com/headedtotop It is listed under Health and Nutrition and then general health. I also wanted to tell you about a product called OPC-3 that has changed my life. It attacks inflamation in the body and can be used to help arthritis, lupus, rheumatoid a. Also proven effective on asthma, allergies and even autism. If you do a search on the web, you will find testimonials supporting effectiveness. It is under Isotonix brand name on the same web site. I have 4 severly injured discs from a car accident and osteo. Took away so much pain and stiffness. Helped to cut down on pain killers. Check it out and if you have any questions, you can email me at Headedtotop@aol.com. Good luck to you!
from New Chapter has turmeric in it, but didn't help me as much as the pure curcuminoid tablets (1,000mg ach)2x daily with meals. Vibrant Health is the company producing this curcuminoid. I would really like to find the actual brand MD Anderson used.I have shared this information with my doctor.
