For what it's worth I will tell you my experience with Turmeric.
=A0
I have been taking turmeric for years,-----at least a heaping teaspoon each=
 day,---usually in my morning hot cereal. Why? Because of it's anti-inflamm=
atory properties.

I have had PD for almost 5 years and sinemet helped me tremendously. I am d=
oing quite well and I tell everyone I think the Turmeric has something to d=
o with it. I was even able to cut down on my sinemet(from 450mg to 300mg) a=
bout a year ago,-----with no adverse change. I'm now at the point where I'm=
 tempted to cut down further!! I swear by Turmeric.

I find now that I usually function better before I take the sinemet than af=
ter.For example I find I usually walk best in the early morning before the =
sinemet and walk less good an hour or two after the sinemet. But even more =
interesting, I walk better at 4PM than I do at 6PM(after the 5PM dose of si=
nemet!). I can't prove it but I think the Turmeric has a lot to do with it.

I don't agree that Turmeric is not bio-available. I use the powder and norm=
ally have some olive oil with it(in my cereal),

That's my two cents worth,----------------------------------------Sam
