I have been dealing with chronic pain since 2008. I have severe degenerative disc disease and severe osteoarthritis. My feet are beginning to get deformed and I am very limited to what kind of shoes I wear. My neck is a mess, my spine and my shin pain adds to my condition. This tumeric has made a huge difference in my nights sleep plus my daily pain. I have friends that are having success with it also. Don't let the price scare you away if you can afford it. I recommend anyone start off with 6 daily the first 3 or 4 days then level off to 4 a day, 2 twice daily. I can take them with or without food. I am sure without food would make them more bioavailable. I go off of them 2 or 3 days and my pain increases. I try not to let myself run out. If you are suffering with chronic pain I hope this helps you as much as it has me. UPDATE ️I have been taking this supplement well over a year. It is the best thing I have ever used to help with my severe arthritic pain. I have talked with the companies representatives. They informed me it is being used for cancer pain with good results. The best information I received on the phone call was if the consumer stops taking it every 6 weeks for 2 to 3 days then resumes their dosage it will reboot the effectiveness. I do it for that reason only. When I do it it is hard because my pain is so bad on those days it shocks me into reality just how much this has done for me. It rids me of probably 75% of my pain. I am so thankful. It is comforting to know I am not taking toxic drugs with bad side effects. For this I am grateful.

I got this product based on another review and I'm glad I did! I was diagnosed with RA in 2004 and over the years, I've been able to control the pain with IBU, but NSAIDs are just not good for you. So I'd been searching for a good product that was natural without negative side effects. I'd try other curcumin products without any success. But, it wasn't until I started researching about bioavailability and certain products. That's why I knew that this time it would be different! So I thought that it would take a cookstoves of weeks before seeing changes, but I was WRONG! I felt a difference the same day! I started with 2 capsules then added 2 more. I've settled on a regime of 4 capsules in the morning on an empty stomach, that gets me through the day, then 2 capsules at bedtime. I've seen a difference in the mornings when getting up there is less aches and pains. I'm grateful!!!
