GSK2606414 is definitely NOT either turmeric or curcumin. Their molecular formulas are not even close:
GSK2606414: C24H20F3N5O
Turmeric (curcumin): C21H20O6 (with minor variations depending on the chemical formulation)
From what I've read, GSK2606414 is a plant based derivative. So. maybe its a turmeric derivative. In which case, it certainly could have serious side effects (which it did in this study) along with more prion controlling benefits than everyday curcumin.
