Turmeric Curcumin with BioPerine 1500mg. Highest Potency Available. Premium O...

I've read a lot about the benefits (real and imagined) of various herbal compounds. I became curious about several of these compounds, because of some health issues I have experienced (sadly, I keep getting older, so I have to concern myself with these things). I'm not a big believer in superstition and heresay. I really prefer solid evidence. However, I am also sufficiently open minded and willing to try things for myself. What doesn't work for some people, might work for others. That being said, I decided to try Turmeric supplements. The first time I took one, I experienced some major flushing (e.g., I turned bright red), which I suppose is expected. The good news was, Turmeric seems to help alleviate some of the symptoms I was experiencing (I'm being vague because I don't care to discuss my health history for the entire Internet). I later learned that the particular brand of Turmeric I was using, had a hidden California Prop 65 warning sticker on the bottom of the bottle. That really disturbed me. The advertisement on Amazon did not mention this little detail. I decided I would not use that particular brand again. Other customers had also discovered this little fact, as evidenced by their Amazon reviews. So I decided to look for another brand to try. I presume that if a product doesn't have a CA prop 65 warning or sticker on the product, that it doesn't need one (I really am hoping that's true). After searching through the various products on Amazon, I narrowed my choices down to a few brands, including Dr. Danielle's Curcumin. Clearly, there was a significant price difference between what I'd previously purchased, and the other products I was examining. I have to assume that's because the previous product I was using, was somehow deficient or flawed (you can search through my reviews if you're truly curious as to what the other brand was). So I decided to pull the trigger and try Dr Danielle's Turmeric. I was attracted by the fact that this is an organic product, and contains a compound intended to enhance its effectiveness (Bioperine). Apparently this is a special sort of black pepper extract that makes the Turmeric more effective. My education is not in chemistry, so I did a little searching and learned that this Bioperine is a product that can also be purchased alone, for the purpose of enhancing the effectiveness of other compounds. So Dr. Danielle's product is really offering a little extra bang for the buck, as it were, by including this compound in their product. I also noticed that most of the other Turmeric compounds I compared, did not also include Bioperine. It is unclear why that is the case. So earlier this week, I received my bottle of Turmeric, and took one immediately. I noticed that once again I became flushed, which had not happened in quite some time. I don't know if that's because I was taking a compound that was more effective than the other brand I had been using, but I can't really think of any other reason why that would happen. More importantly, I noticed that it helped alleviate my symptoms from (the health condition that I'm not discussing openly). It's not a huge effect, but it is noticeable. So, is it worth the extra effort and cost? I suppose that depends on your point of view. I look at this as a quality of life issue. If I can help improve my quality of life a little, by taking an organic supplement, that other cultures have used for medicinal purposes for a Really Long Time (thousands of years, if you believe Wikipedia), then why not? Yes, it's among the more expensive brands. But it didn't come with a hidden CA prop 65 warning sticker on the bottom of the bottle! Which is a big plus to me. And it's working just as well, if not better than what I had been using before.

I am always looking for good quality organic products and this one does not disappoint. They do not cause stomach upset as most I have tried have. They are not so big that it is difficult to swallow. Has truly helped with my inflammation! Highly recommend!

Dr Danielle is really a brand that deeply care about people's health! I have been using this supplement a while, the biggest benefit I've noticed is significantly faster recovery after physical activity - I used to be sore the next day after busy or intense days, but that's dramatically improved since starting this supplement. The anti-inflammatory effects are noticeable within just a couple weeks. I have more energy and less general aches and pains. The inclusion of black pepper extract (BioPerine) really makes a difference for absorption - many other brands skip this crucial component. The clean, organic formula with 95% curcuminoids has no fillers or bad taste. Created by a naturopathic doctor, it's worth the higher price for the quality. Will definitely reorder!

All natural ingredients. No harsh after taste. Easy to take. Helped almost immediately with joint pain. This was wonderful as its been awhile since I have felt this much relief in my knees. Great product!!

Big fan of turmeric curcumin. I love that black pepper is added to enhance the benefits! I used to just use powder but it's time consuming, and taking it like this instead saves me time and ensures I get the right dose! No side effects either. The powder with water usually causes an upset stomach for me. This is a great product, and I will order once I'm out for the overall health benefits and joint support.

I recently turned 51 yrs old, am NOT overweight (5'6" and 133 lbs), and have a fantastic blood pressure level. Yet over the past 6 years, I have seen a ridiculous number of doctors... all of which have been unsuccessful in figuring out why my legs swell, to the point of pain that keeps me awake, and ruins my days. I have also been battling fatigue over that time period. I do not like taking medications long-term, so I was doing what I could in order to at least get temporary relief. I would lay on my back, with my feet up on the wall for 15 to 20 minutes at a time. I also used electronic leg compression pump sleeves, but could not get far from an electric outlet -- plus, the leg sleeves would slide down when I stood up. Both of these methods of relief aren't exactly something I can do while working, grocery shopping, etc. I decided to try turmeric, and purchased a big container of loose powder.... But soon discovered I don't like the taste of turmeric. So I was not consistent in taking it. It was at this point that I decided to try capsules, but discovered many of the brands on the market use gelatin, which I find disgusting as a vegan. This brand works very well in preventing pain in my legs -- though they do need to be taken BEFORE the swelling begins. Because it's not a drug, I find it understandable that it takes awhile for my system to absorb and respond to the turmeric. Overall, I am very pleased with this product, BUT I wish the manufacturer would use environmentally-friendly packaging and nix the plastic bottle. It's for this reason that I deducted one star from my overall rating. As far as the size of the capsules go, I don't have a problem swallowing them, but I could see where some people may. By the way, I eventually figured out it was the consumption of APPLES and WHEAT making my legs swell/hurt. Thankfully, I have no need to be strict about gluten contamination, because I do not have celiac. Although I have figured out the main causes of my pain, when I go out of town and need to eat in restaurants a lot, I find it extremely difficult to avoid wheat. So a week or two prior to the date I am due to leave, I start taking these capsules regularly, and am able to spare myself the misery of painful legs.
