Do you regularly cook with Tumeric? Or do you take it as a supplement?

I found these links for you:

Placebo effect, 10 mins is not long enough for most substances to be well absorbed from the gut mucosa (try 2-4 hours)

It is supposed to be lipid soluble --try heated in coconut milk

I was taking turmeric for awhile to help with some GI inflammation. If I remember from all the searching I did on it has low bioavailability that is increased by piperine. There was something about a company looking to market a supplement based on that combo, never really looked into it. Pretty sure you can just get both as supplements in capsule form. if youre taking it for GI issues I also had luck adding licorice (DGL), l-glutamine and caprylic acid.
