How much do you take, Patty? And brand?
I was taking 4 gms daily of Thorne curcumin and my FLCs dropped about 25%.
I got tired of taking 8 capsules a day and cut back to 1 gm/day. They went back up. So considering resuming the higher dose. The m-spike remains low though, regardless. Thanks, and glad you’re doing well.

I am taking QUNOL ultra strength turmeric curcumin complex. I take 1000 MG twice a day.
My PCP hooked me up with the PharmD associated with her clinic and we went through all my medication's and talked about dosage. I have no Gastro issues with the dosage.
I think physicians need to have more data before they jump on this bandwagon. The studies that I have found related to curcumin have been very small samples. This one that I'm posting below is 25 patients. So the information is anecdotal and thus physicians consider it unreliable. I'm good with that. I don't think that the risk associated with taking curcumin (for me anyway) is prohibitive.
