ramakentesh Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 Just curious how soon people noticed some improvement on dosages of turmeric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jump Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 I took 450 mg of root extract (95% curcuminoids) and 50 g of turmeric root twice. Both times it gave me such a horrible stomach ache that I couldn't continue taking it. I didn't notice a change, but I only took it for two days.However, the second time I took it, I had a stomach ache for a whole week. This could easily have been a coincidence, but it was an "unusual" stomach ache that I've never had before except when taking turmeric.I hope it's working better for others!!!!!

ramakentesh Posted April 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Well The reason I asked is because I took it yesterday and it brought on POTS. I was pretty much asymptomatic before I took it.I also read that it is a potent scavenger or nitric oxide. While this may be helpful in MAST cell forms of POTS and Normal Flow POTS, it may be unhelpful in other forms of POTS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramakentesh Posted April 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Ive only tried it once and ive been pretty what I call 'reactive' lately - in that because im just coming out of a crash all sorts of things seem to trigger symptoms at present.That being said I took around 500mgs of it I think in tablet form and within five minutes I was struggling not to pass out while sitting in my chair.

MelissaCrystal Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 I kept feeling ulcer-ish in my stomach after I took it. Really hungry, weak feeling, burning stomach. It just didn't agree with me =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest brianala Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 I tried it for several days also, and had stomach problems so I quit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
