After checking with my doctor to make sure tumeric would not interfere with medications that take regularly, I ordered and received a 60 count bottle at the end of the year. I have been taking 2 capsules per day for the last three weeks. As a first time user of tumeric, I was surprised in such a short period of time to find that this supplement does seem to have alleviated the many of aches and pains I feel after cardio work and weight lifting at the gym at least three times per week. I was under the impression (perhaps mistakenly) that the beneficial effects of this supplement would have to build up of a longer period of usage. I have not experienced any negative side effects from usage. Given the relief I have felt so far I will definitely continue to use this brand.
