I suffer from myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) - a multi-system autoimmune disease. Among the many physical malfunctions ME encompass, neuroinflammation is one of them. I experience great improvement by taking 1 teaspoon of curcumin mixed with a teaspoon of freshly grined pepper, and a teaspoon olive oil - all disolved in juice, tea, coffee, or yoghurt naturel. Curcumin does NOT taste good, but it certainly helps on my headaches, fatigue, and cognitive problems. Thanks for a great science channel ❤🙏❤

I hurt my back years ago due to a herniated disc and I am currently going through a flare-up. I am doing a number of things to get better, but I've been taking a curcumin (with piperine!) supplement daily to reduce inflammation in my sciatic nerve. I don't think it has made a dent in pain levels, but I'll continue going through the whole bottle in case the anti-inflammatory effects compound and help me get back to a pain-free state quicker. Diabetes also runs in my family though, so as I get older, I'll definitely keep a close eye on this one. Hopefully by the time I'm getting into late middle age these supplements are cheaper!

Nice video. I think we need to start acknowledging though an inconvenient gap between what the studies say and what happens in clinical practice. Curcumin is often touted as this magic anti-inflammatory, and yet we still have people with autoimmune diseases having to go through strong immunosupressants. As an alternative therapy, I'd be much more interested in seeing the mechanism of Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) than Curcumin, which has been gaining a lot of traction, in special now with the Long Covid RCTs. In general, people that seek LDN prescriptions have already tried things like Curcumin and other supposedly anti-inflammatory supplements. This leads me to believe that Curcumin is great in paper, but not so much in practice.

My doctor recommended curcumin to help with some medication side effects. I have suffered with migraine since late childhood, although it could be weeks between attacks, they tended to be in clusters leaving me low for a few days without early use of my medication for whenever I had an attack. After taking curcumin with success for many months, I noticed that my migraine medication (which I carried in my wallet) was out of date. I then couldn't remember when I last had an attack. I have now been free from debilitating migraines for over a decade. Interestingly, the only other period that I was migraine free was while I was on steroid treatment, so I am suspecting that my migraine was, to a degree, related to inflammation.

I routinely test on the high side of normal for fasting blood sugar (95-105 typically). Type II diabetes runs in my family. I get a lot of exercise and my blood sugar hasn't gotten any worse in five years. Nonetheless, I still am mildly concerned. So I did some checking on curcumin. What I've found is that I can routinely see my morning fasting glucose drop by about 10 mg/dL about an hour after taking curcumin and some black pepper. Yes, I just grind some up fresh and take it with the pill. An hour later, my glucose will be about 10 units lower. I've also tested an hour later multiple times with no curcumin and see no similar pattern of blood sugar dropping. There has been, however, one exception out of about 7 tests so far where my blood sugar did not drop after taking curcumin. Given that Metformin has real side effects (maybe reduces some of the beneficial effects of exercise and inhibit skeletal muscle gains) I'd like to avoid the medication. So maybe @Physionic is on the right track. This may very well be a good supplement for borderline/borderline people like myself.

Your previous video touched on how curcumin isn't absorbed into the blood stream or is inactivated by the liver. The conclusion of that video was that curcumin needs to be taken with pepperine. Is that combo what was given to the subjects in these studies? Something doesn't match if curcumin isn't absorbed into the blood but it does have an effect on insulin resistance and diabetes.

If curcumin increases insulin sensitivity then it should reduce C peptide meaning less stress from insulin production and possibly weight loss and reducing the risk of diabetes further in so-called healthy people. In other words, consider the impact of curcumin on the HOMA IR score before you conclude that healthy people see no benefit.

I eat a lot of spicy foods and turmeric gets thrown in, it would seem incorrect not to do so. I dont think i need any more.

Thanks for a very interesting and thought-provoking video. Question: Is curcumin the only beneficial compound in turmeric? In addition to it's anti inflammatory and and anti diabetic properties, I've also read that turmeric has some neuro-protective and anti-cancer ones as well. Is there any truth to this and if so, can they all be attributed to curcumin alone or are there other compounds in turmeric that could be responsible?

@Physionic Жыл бұрын

It's the main compound, but it's still possible other compounds could also be of benefit. I would probably focus on curcumin, however. I haven't looked into those areas myself, yet, but I can tell you that I've read similar claims in the scientific reviews.

There’s an original Brazilian high D protocol & some in the US have been very successful, too (sorry I cannot remember their names, but should come up in a search💔)

The conclusion made me curious. Has there ever been a nutrient/supplement shown to be a good alternative to medication, actually ? I can't think of any whatsoever.

I know I'm not answering your question strictly speaking (like a 1 for 1 swap of curcumin for metformin), but there are examples where meds might be eliminated in lieu of non-phamaceuticals. Exercise has tremendous anti-depressant effects over many drug treatments. Or changing what you eat reversing some metabolic disease when the meds are only managing symptoms. (I'm not against meds, but they aren't the only answer... Though sometimes they may be). I'd rather take turmeric instead of ibuprofen. But if the pain is bad enough, I'll take it or acetaminophen.

I take some Tumeric evry day a table spoon in my lemon drink with some garlik and oliv oil and blackpepper( lowered my blod pressure) it do not do anything for my bloodsugar levels they are the same, Normal, but it does help with two fingers on right hand. If i stop taking it i get some pain back in them and i have stopped many times mostly because Tumeric taste like shit so i skip it and then after a couple of days i get pain back in my two fingers. My wife however have another response She have twice as high bloodsugar levels as me normally but they go down to be the same as mine when she takes it. I got her some berberine a couple of weeks ago and she is of Tumeric will check Her blood sugar and see if it works as said.
