Yes I take it daily. You need to speak with your doctor to make sure that it doesn’t interfere with other medication you have been prescribed.
Don’t know if it’s doing any good but I know it’s not doing me any harm, there’s no definitive evidence of it’s anti cancer properties, although there’s plenty of anecdotal evidence from people who swear by it.

Welcome David, I take Tumeric and curcumin every day. It does seem to help my joint pain. How much did your doctor say to take? Which brand? That's the questions of the day

However, there is not yet enough evidence to suggest that people with MGUS should take curcumin supplements. It's important to speak with your health care provider Show Full Answer
