Organic Turmeric Curcumin with Black Pepper Extract 2000mg - High Absorption Ultra Potent Supplement - 95% Curcuminoids - Vegan, Non GMO - 120 Capsules

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.

If there were ten stars I would give this product ten.I purchased this product for my husband and myself about two months ago. I had the classic symptoms of a bone spur in my right heel, all of the pain is gone. I don't take these religiously with a hectic work life sometimes I forget and I have still found excellent results. Now for my husband he is 62 years old and is your typical stubborn male who balks at any suggestions I have given him to take any type of supplements for his health. He complained about how all of his joints ached and it takes him awhile "to get going" before he didn't have pain in his ankles, his hands hurt him after he played his guitar, he has carpal tunnel in both hands. So I told him that I wanted him to try the Turmeric and to pay attention to his body and how it feels, and that I had read that this could help him. He was desperate enough this time that he didn't put up much of a fight. I handed him the pills the first week to make sure he took them, after a week he told me he thought they were working. I knew that they must be because soon when I would go to give him his pill he started saying he had already taken them on his own. Then when he was packing for a business trip and without me asking if he was bringing them I saw him put them in his suitcase. Now I was really convinced that they were helping him. He told me that at about three weeks is when he noticed that he had no more pain! He told me that Turmeric Curcumin has changed his life and that he plans on taking this product the rest of his life. To hear him say that is just amazing! When I told him that I was writing a review for this product he said if you did a commercial about this product he would want to be in it. He also asked me to tell a coworker where I got it from so he could try it. For my husband to be talking about this and how it has helped him you know it is working for him. Yesterday at Thanksgiving he gave some of his pills to his brother so he can try them out as well. Thank you for creating such a quality affordable product. The reason I chose this product over some others was because it is made with organic turmeric and there are no fillers etc. We are also giving it to our 11 year old dog who is showing signs of age and have seen improved mobility with him as well.

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.

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!

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!

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.

I was looking for an organic option that included black pepper for better absorption, and this one checked all the boxes. It’s a great value for the price and seems to be very high quality. I feel like it’s been a nice, natural boost for my overall wellness. Definitely worth a try if you’re on the fence!

I've been a health nut all my adult life, so I don't have any serious conditions like many of the reviewers here. However, their reviews intrigued me. Here's why... A couple of years ago, I changed the cushion on my home office executive chair and didn't realize how difficult it would be to align it. The next day I awoke with a back sprain that took many weeks to heal, but ever since that time I would experience sporadic low grade pain - either in the lower or upper back or sometimes on the side. Not enough to stop me from functioning, but still very bothersome and distracting. It would bother me when I would sit - I do a lot of writing at the computer - and also when I would stand for a period of time. Even stretching when working out would set it off. As I said, I'm a health nut, take a lot of nutritional supplements but would never rely on over the counter medications. I had thought of seeing a chiropractor but didn't feel intuitively prompted to do so (I had never been to one before). Over the past year, I had been noticing the research on turmeric as a "superfood" and it's many benefits. I decided to find a good brand (and one that contained the black pepper component). When I read through the reviews for Dr. Danielle's brand, I thought it might help with my back situation. I ordered. I began taking the capsules twice a day and eventually just took one each day. I've been very busy (have a book deal with Penguin Random House that's taking my focus and attention). Time has gone by... But this week I had a striking realization. It suddenly dawned on me that I have not even finished the first bottle of Dr. Danielle's product, and it has not just helped my discomfort - it has eliminated it entirely!! That's it. I thought back over the past month and realized that I haven't felt that pain at all - whether I sit, stand, work out. It's gone...two years of apparent inflammation in my muscles or tissues - gone for good. The most wonderful part of all is that this superfood is so good for so many aspects of our health, we can take it continuously as a supplement. I will never stop. On a side note, I had noted a couple of reviews here from buyers who were helped with depression - and that intrigued me even more. I don't have that problem, but I'm always delighted and amazed to find that mother nature provides us with wonderful natural substances to help us and that much of the population may no longer have to rely on dangerous pharmaceuticals. I checked this out and curcumin has been medically proven to be as effective as prozac for healing serious depression! Nutritional science is waking up! Thank you, Dr. Danielle, for your research and fine products - and for bringing my body back to its natural state. Marilyn
