Tumeric has curcumin.. Curcumin is essential for the body. Taking tumeric with some sort of fat allows the body to absorb curcumin by 2000%. My daily routine is taking a shot of; tumeric, black pepper, 1 tea spoon of avocado oil, half lemon, 2 tea spoons of apple cider vinager and water with a lil honey for taste .. Aside from that i also take all my daily vitamins with a peice of ginger and a raw garlic. It is important to crush or slice the garlic and let it sit approx ten minutes so it can produce allicin. This is non expensive and i do this every morning. Im 33 years old and havnt been sick in 15 years. My day is filled with good energy and i sleep great!

I'm happy to know this, because I am taking Turmeric daily with flaxseeds. I wanna say thank you, because your channel changed my life. I'm 50 years old, but looking 40. :) Share my Turmeric recipe here, basically it's a modified Keto cocoa, 1). MCT oil ( c8 100%) 1tbsp 2). Grass fed butter 1oz 3).Dutch processed cocoa powder 5g, 4).Turmeric 10g 5).ground Flaxseed 10g 6).200g hot water. Blending together. I usually make it in the morning together with my keto coffee, then put it in the refrigerator for dinner. I've been taking it for a year, and tried different Turmeric recipes. This one is the best for me, good absorption rate and tasty. Black pepper gave a lot of pain to my stomach. Coconut oil can make Turmeric tasty but it's not a good idea to take too much Coconut oil. Ground chia seeds make it bitter to me. Hope you can find a better one based on this recipe.

For me I started with a powder that I put in a veggie capsule so I could take the same amount everyday. First few doses gave me soft stools (sorry to be blunt but…) and kept increasing that effect so I backed off and let my body get used to it. So I took 1 every couple of days for a few weeks until I was at 1/day. I tried 2/day after a month and it was fine but when I added milk thistle and dandelion root to my regimen I backed down to 1/day again due to the side effects from all 3 products. All this to say, each person is going to tolerate it differently based on their health and what other things are in their diet. I believe turmeric is a great help to our body. If I get to 12 capsules per day, which is about one teaspoon I will probably stop there. That is about 5.5 grams. I do not think my body will tolerate more than that. Each person must self regulate their dose as no one else can as each body, their absorption level etc. and lifestyle is different. Cheers

Man kann tumeric in Kapseln abfüllen, die Magengängig sind und sich erst im Darm auflösen

Hi @thomas, i love your videos and had been a fan for 10 years. can you please make a video or comment because there is huge thread on reddit that turmeic supplements cause liver damage. Many reputed news agency as well covering this , whats going on here. I am an Indian , we are consuming turmeric for 1000 of years. anyways , cheers for the good work :)

[@taylorlibby7642]

Does turmeric act as a blood thinner? Does it interact well or negatively with prescription blood thinners?

[@thedarkknight221]

I've heard that it is, so you have to consider that if you are on blood thinners. Maybe small doses.

[@nuurie107]

In a meal for 6 people, we add a quarter teaspoon of turmeric... Twice daily.... That is how it is done in our region... Hope this helps

[@nuurie107]

Also... If someone is suffering from any kind of inflammatory issues... Quarter to half teaspoon in warm milk with honey at night, like a medicine, till one gets better....

What do you think about turmeric supposedly being one of the highest oxolate-containing plants? Oxolates in high quantities (turmeric has very high levels) can cause gut inflammation and other issues which may negate some of the benefits of taking it. Maybe we'd be better off if we were taking an extract, perhaps?

[@MoJams901]

you can purchase a liquid curcumin product through Amy Myers MD that is liposomal with high absorption that does not cause any gut issues for me.

[@PatrickDAllen1]

@@MoJams901 Oxolates are very water soluble. So if you did a fat-based extract (liposomal usually is), then oxolates should not be a problem. But turmeric also has other compounds that are beneficial too, not just curcumin. That's why it's tricky to just extract one compound from the plant and assume you have all the benefits. Turmeric is a complex plant. Look up the list of "active compounds" in Turmeric and the list is miles long. Curcumin just has the most research on it as an isolated substance.

[@lizparsons7301]

Take magnesium citrate and you won't get kidney stones. It works! Also calcium binds to oxalates and will help excrete them

How do I know how much turmeric I have to take!?

[@StaverHealth]

These benefits are amazing! This is exactly why we made our product Turmeric Curcumin Plus by Staver Health. Thank you so much for this video!

[@toriarose]

Yep, turmeric am good, use it daily. I've been wanting to try pork again, after years of not eating it. I like that they take good care of their animals. But not good with ingredients: "natural flavors" (what's that?), "water" (not filtered?), "sugar" (aka refined, bleck), "vinegar" (you mean, like what I clean stuff with?), and all the other non-organic ingredients (no indicators of being so).

[@jf1890]

I take turmeric every day. Great to hear some new info on it!

[@dchance0]

Gawd u R a smart man!

[@vkahri]

Great, but what is the best source of turmeric? Best way to take it, right amount, best time, and what other ingredients, if any should it be consumed with for best absorption? What, if any, ingredients could hinder absorption, so you can avoid taking them along with turmeric?

[@cubalkan]

What about the high lead concentrations in turmeric?

[@GizmoFromPizmo]

So in my smoothy, I want to include turmeric along with my avocado in order to better absorb the Omega 3s in the avocado. I like that!

[@LisePlansandJournals]

Don’t forget to add black pepper so the curcumin is absorbed in the body

[@rj5822]

Bareorganics has the best turmeric coffee. It’s infused with ginger, cinnamon and dark cacao

[@damxn7303]

See the comments saying mix it with blk pepper …. I say be careful with that. It messed my stomach up. I was doing it everyday though.

[@brandongordon2521]

I’ve heard that Tumeric can work as a DHT inhibitor which could help prevent hair loss. Not sure how much evidence there is of this though

[@lancer717]

You have my attention 👀…

[@bryce-bryce]

Why no information on dosage and the fact that it should be combined with black pepper?

[@ahmadgabriel535]

Hi Thomas, I'm curious what you think about staying away from turmeric according to Andrew Hubberman, thank you before

[@lucky2653]

Don't forget that it's a telomerase inhibitor. Not great for telomeres. Maybe some of its other benefits outweigh the shortening of telomeres but for now I choose other options besides turmeric. If I had cancer I would use turmeric but for now I really don't think telomerase inhibitors are a great choice for me personally.

[@lancer717]

Very interesting

[@bk9384]

Finally, some actual science on it. So sick of videos saying 'studies show... It's thought to be...My granny told me...' without any context, evidence or even any sort explanation

[@rsmith7292]

Thanks! I'm starting to learn and know what some of the terms mean (before you explain them!) (Maybe it's the turmeric I'm taking!). Happy Holidays!

[@billiecomeaux]

Please note that in most, if not all of these studies, curcumin is used, not turmeric. Curcumin is the active ingredient in turmeric, and is concentrated for supplement use. You would have to eat a great deal of turmeric to get the curcumin levels referred to in these studies.

[@robm2707]

So what shall we do to get the benefits? Please explain.

[@yogimaster1]

Thomas can you look into how we can get curcumin to pass through the blood-brain barrier more efficiently? I wonder if a liposomal turmeric extract might have a better effect on the brain.

[@indyfamily6412]
