Has anyone besides me used curcumin to address autoimmune diseases.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Autoimmune Diseases Support Group.

Hi @vonbaron36, and welcome to Connect. There have been several members discussing their experiences with curcumin for autoimmune diseases, including @lisa54, @bonniecanby and @mrsdeecee. @vonbaron36, can you share your experience with curcumin with the group?

I have been taking 1000 mgs. of curcumin per day for almost a year. Started out with 500. Hoping to help treat Lymphoma. Will go into more detail if anyone is interested.

Hi, this is Lacey, I also had non-hodgkins lymphoma and I swear by curcumin, I take one pill a day ofTurmeric Supreme with my vitamins and Ensure, every morning with a light breakfast, it has given me back some of the energy I lost from chemo and my tests have been clean and perfect numbers. I have been in remission since Jan. 2015, so we are doing something right. Good Luck.

I have used turmeric but frankly I don't see much change.

Hi Donald, it's true, everyone is different, some it works and others no change. I used the regular turmeric, but I am now
using Tumeric Supreme , maker is Gaia.but I also take Magnesium 250 mg. with a vitamin . I use Ensure once a day, my
cancer doctor got me started on that and it is full of vitamins also. I could hardly open my eyes in the morning and now
my energy level is almost normal, feels good to feel alive again. I see the difference ; as my cancer is gone since Jan. 2015
so it is working for me. Hope you feel better and stay with the program. Good Luck, Lacey

I have Sjogren's and Celiac and I was using turmeric with bioprine for awhile as I was told it was good for autoimmune diseases. I thought it was affecting my bowels: diarrhea,etc. Anyone else have this problem? Maybe I should to back to it to prove one way or another.

Thank you for the information, if the Chinese have been using it, it has to be good for you, they live very long lives and I use the new one they came out with, it seems to be working for me and I am feeling good finally. Thanks ,
but I don't see the bioperine in the ingrediants, I guess every developer is different. Lacey

So does diet, play any part in autoimmune disease. My wife wants me to see a nutritionist who uses Leap (lifestyle , eating and performance. They use a MRT (mediator release test which is blood work. The whole deal will cost me close to 1000.00 this includes three meetings with a nutritionist to go over results and set up a plan. Good idea or not
