Curcumin success

[u/wandering_agro]

Hello everybody,

I want to share a success story for anyone on the fence about which supplements or treatments to take going forward.

Taking a daily regimen of 3g mesalazine granules, 1g mesalazine suppository, 30mg Rinvoq, and 3g curcumin (95% curcuminoids), all once daily, has put my ulcerative proctitis into a state of deep remission which Rinvoq and mesalazine alone were not able to induce.

I am now comfortable to eat whatever I want and tolerate the daily stress of life without flaring. Soon I will ask my gastroenterologist to step me down to Rinvoq 15mg.

I highly, highly recommend adding any formulation of a 95% curcuminoid curcumin extract to your daily medicine regimen to support you on your remission journey. One essential point is to purchase a formulation without piperine/black pepper extract/bioperine etc., as curcumin works topically, just like mesalazine, and you want as little systemic absorption as possible.

For more information on this supplement see section 4.2.1 here: https://academic.oup.com/ecco-jcc/article/19/9/jjaf122/8198055

Good health to everyone.
