3.6 g/ day
However, the finding that 7 days of oral curcumin supplementation (3.6 g/day) decreased the number of oxidative DNA adducts in malignant colorectal tissue suggests that curcumin taken orally may reach sufficient concentrations in the gastrointestinal tract to inhibit oxidative DNA damage (7).
Much as I love the food, that's a lot of curry! And what's the scuttlebutt about needing some form of pepper to properly metabolize the curcumin?
