I have been taking 500mg capsules for 2 weeks. No side effects. Waiting to see if it helps with the swelling in my hand after surgery for arthritis. Very easy to take . Will report back in a month

Comment:
There are interactions with other medications from turmeric. People need to know what they are and also to stop it 2 wks in advance if having surgery. It is also sold by a multi marketing agent and people that aren't familiar with your health history. Be careful!! Most studies have been done on mice or rats.

Comment:
My back pain is significantly decreased except when I overdo working in the garden, but recovery lasts only a day instead of 3 or 4 days like before.
