Lurking for a cure,
I have never had stomach ache from curcumin. What gave you the idea it gives you "belly ache"? The Indian population eat it in copious quantities, and is probably the reason why their PD incidence figures are 14 and USA/UK is 280 per 100,000 people.
Rick,
Yes, we do have a wide range of relationships to food in our group, but many similarities, we both take half an hour on a good day to kick in. We both need 2 hours on a bad day, the Sinemet lasts the same time no matter when it kicks in. The sinemet builds up in the system and later doses last longer than earlier doses.
My main problem is the dreadful off I get when a sinemet wears off, I am far worse than the off before I took the sinemet.
