A little over a month ago we were discussing the uses of turmeric for various health problems. Well, I'd like to report that after five weeks of taking 1000 mg of curcumin with bioperine (pepper) in capsule form, the itching, the pain & inflamation in my lower extremities and shoulders, arthritis AND restless leg syndrome have all decreased significantly. I'm also using turmeric in my cooking.

I'm also using turmeric in my cooking. That's pretty cool stuff but it's useful to recognize curcumin is an isolated piece of a whole food which fits the definition of drug. This is potent stuff capable of causing a large reaction in the gall bladder. It's always useful to check nutritionfacts.org when seeking more information. The entire site is dedicated to disseminating the findings of the latest scientific studies. Curcumin. Start here. Indian and Pakistani foods use turmeric and many recipes are plant based and low fat like most of the world's diet. Chana Dal Fry with rice and vegetables is a standard at casa gracomanFollowing is a basic recipe to start with if you are unfamiliar with these cuisines. Google Channa Dal Fry for many other recipes. I like Garam Masala in mine. Don't let the whole cloves put you off. That is some spicy meatball with a ton of flavor. Turmeric may be found at Indian and Asian markets for a fraction of the price grocery or health food stores charge. One can literally buy pounds of turmeric in one of these markets for what a few ounces cost at an American market. Fresh root should also available there. You'll need to visit for the Chana Dal anyway. Check the spice, rice and other ingredient prices. You will be amazed. Chana Dal Fry
