Curcumin
Thanks Rick for the mention of my work on curcumin. I have been using it and praising its virtues for 4 years now, It has so many virtues, i have counted 13 so far, but haven't the time to look them all up. they include powerful antioxidant, anti inflammatory, chelator of heavy metals, etc. It is so safe too, 6 human studies have been carried out and pronounced it safe. I originally started it when I saw the incidence figures for India at 14 per 100,000 compared with USA/UK at 280 per 100,000. Curcumin is in curries, and is heavily consumed in the Indian diet.
The only point I would add to Rick's comprehensive list is bioavailability is enhanced considerably by adition of piperine (patented form is bioperine)
You can buy curcumin at iHerb cntaining bioperine.
