Turmeric Curcumin w/Coconut Oil & BioPerine® - 120 Count

So, I ordered this because it was listed as a natural supplement for depression, and I can't take St. Johns Wort because of other meds. Fish oil supposedly helps with depression, but it hasn't helped with that. I'm not diagnosed with depression, but I suspected it because I'm on Chantix (quit smoking pill) which can cause it and my symptoms started when I started taking it. My symptoms are extreme sleepiness, lack of motivation, fatigue, and brain fog.The turmeric helped with every single one of those symptoms within 2 days. I feel normal again and don't want to sleep 24 hours a day. I'm ready to tackle life all over again.I can't say if it helps with pain or not because I'm already on other supplements that help with that, and I will list my supplements below because I know that can be a factor in my experience.I will say to make sure you eat with this. Directions say one pill 2-3 times a day, and 2 does just fine for me (I'm 5'1 and 130lbs, Female). The capsule is about the size of those larger vitamin E capsules, so keep that in mind if you have issues swallowing pills (I do not, but I know some people do).I will be ordering this again, especially since I notice an immediate return in my symptoms if I skip 1 day of taking these. Your burps can have a weird taste sometimes, and I think it's a natural detox because it causes some (not painful) gas. Like a lot of gas (lol) but nothing that'll be uncomfortable.My other supplements (most are from SR also):SR Total Omega 3 capsSR Multi Collegen caps (pills not powder)SR Garlic OilSR CLA (before workouts)Oregano Oil from some other brand (SR doesn't make one)Multi VitaminI take all according to directions and daily.

UPDATED 5-Star Review:I originally bought and starting using this product in May 2016. It seemed to help with some toe swelling issues I was having. Unbeknownst to me, however, was that it was reducing swelling elsewhere, too! I have had a really tight budget for about 2 months now, so I did not re-order this Turmeric at the beginning of October. Well ... since then I have been struggling with really severe migraines. I finally broke down and went to the doctor and then a chiropractor. The diagnosis: inflammation in my neck/head! It suddenly clicked for me that I've not been taking the Turmeric. So, I started up again, and guess what? While I still have headaches (I imagine it will take time to take full effect), the intensity is no where near as it was before. This stuff works!Original 4-Star Review:I have been taking this product for only 2 weeks, but I can already feel a difference. I don't know what the problem is, but my toes become very swollen and painful quite often. I've tried to pinpoint the cause, but I've been unsuccessful. They usually hurt me 3-4 days out of a week. Since taking this Turmeric Curcumin supplement, the pain has decreased. I still feel it, but it is more manageable and it seems to be continuing to improve. I've taken 1 star off because the decrease in pain is not so significant that I "love" the product. Maybe it will continue to get even better with further use; if it does, then at that point, I will upgrade my review to a 5-star. Good product and worth taking a chance to see if it gives you relief of pain.

So far the product seems to be working. I have tendinitis in my right knee to the point that if I try to run I get a aggravating sharp pain. I've been taking this product for 5 days, and initially was taking the recommended dosage the first 2 days. I didn't notice anything at first, so I doubled the dosage for the next 3 days. I played basket ball and my knee was as sore as quickly as usual within the first 2 games. I will take the product for another week and post if I see if this product has a long term healing effect. But hopefully with the way I'm feeling now, this product keeps helping with the nagging inflammation I've been having.I'll come back and leave an update by next Saturday!Review Update (6/29/2015)I've been using for over a week now, and I can testify that majority of the pain in my knees have gone. I haven't been sore getting up first thing in the morning, and I've actually played basketball with limited pain problems. I did stop most of my jumping and running activities over the course of the last 10 days (something I've done before and still felt pain) just to see if there was any difference. I must say that outside of squeezing my knee in certain areas just to see if those areas still felt pain (which they did, just not as much as usual). I will say that my knees felt considerably better, to the point that as of 6/27/15 I played 5 games of basketball and didnt feel any discomfort until around the end of the 4th game. I'm sure the inflammation probably kicked in, but I used to feel that pain during the second game I played in the previous weeks before. I believe other than going under the knife, this is the best alternative I've had. Better than Motrin, Ibprofen, Aleeve, and even the 800 mg pain killers I used to get from my doctor.

I've had this for a couple of weeks now. I love the ingredients. However, if I take two of these in a day, even staggered out, I get the gods awful worst heartburn, and it never stops. There is nothing in these capsules that would cause heartburn, I'm not allergic to any of the ingredients. I've tried them with food, without food, drinking milk, drinking extra water, eating bread, etc. I can't sleep it hurts so bad. It causes no intestinal distress, just heartburn. So, that's why I am taking away one star.When I stop taking them, it takes about 18 hours to all the raging flames in my chest and throat to subside. When I take two again, it's back with a vengeance. So, I am taking one a day, and doing ok with it. I will try the two pills again in a couple of weeks.For now I am going splits with my elderly dog, one for him and one for me. I can really see it's making a huge difference in him, he is ancient, arthritic, blind, deaf, and hobbles around in a bit of pain. Since starting him on the one pill a day, (just mixed in his food) he's awake and moving around a lot more, he's happier, his tail is wagging often, and giving indications that he is not experiencing his usual levels of pain. I love the addition of the coconut oil, since I have been supplementing him with that as well.I do wonder what the issue is. I don't think it's the bioperine, because the last supplement I tried had 2.5mg bioperine in it. Very annoying, but I like these pills. They are HUGE, but go down very easily, and I am one of those that tend to choke on horsepills, lol.Update Dec 31st 2016.I did continue on the one pill a day for that couple of weeks, and went to the 2 pills. It worked out just fine. No more heartburn. I think I just needed to get used to them. They worked great, my pain levels decreased as my inflammation reduced. I could skip my celebrex and take these and would be totally ok.I also used them to brush with! I could get 2-3 brushings out of each gelcap. The taste is not good at all, lol. Stains everything in sight, so be really careful when you do it, and be prepared to clean it up quickly. My teeth are whiter than ever. I could see a difference with the first try and I used strips and those "whitening" toothpastes with zero success. Because of that, I keep doing it once or twice a week.

All I can say is I was using another brand of this same product with minimal results and the night I started using this product, I seen amazing results. It was the first night I slept well in months.Not only does the product work amazingly well but I ordered it at 3 in the afternoon and received it by 5.Unbelievable in all areas.

Been using these for about a year and I'm happy with them. Good value and great packaging.

Works really well for inflammation. Big difference.

Was recommended this product for inflammation I’m starting one pill a day and gradually I will increase my dosafey

Very good

وقفتو يوم رجع لي امي الامساك ورجع لي الصداع

I've been taking this brand/product for quite a while. I love it, it's been the only brand I buy now and I wait for it to go on sale. It helps tremendously with my inflammation and pain for my TMJ Issues. I found out how much it helped when I ran out and the pain started to come back with a vengeance. For me, this has been the best brand of Tumeric I've taken and trust me I've tried many different brands over the years. I highly recommend it.

As expected.
