My husband has been taking tumeric for 3 months. Two masses have disapeared and two have shrunk. He also had pin point radiation . Hard to know if it helped or not. Will continue to take anyway.

Hi Marian, I take a turmeric supreme, extra strength ( maker, GAIA ), it is a natural herb, it has helped me and I also take 250mg. Magnesium with it. Ask you doctor if that is good for you?? 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

1,000 mg. turmeric plus 5 mg perperine, usually it comes together. It comes
as a quite yellow pill oval form.

Hi, there are so many different brands out there, do you see a big difference in your energy since you are taking them? I am still very tired ( most likely the after effects of chemo ) getting better though. Lacey

Thanks , I do not have any pain ( thank God ) , but I do get acid reflux, I don’t see the tumerick helping in that area, but I will keep using it, It will get better results the longer you use it.

@meemer

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.

things change every day, chemo can have a different effect on anyone, so hang in there, your doctor should be able to tell you if there is a association there?? Lacy
