TURMERIC QUESTIONS FOR CHILDREN'S ALLERGIES
10/02/2008: Amy from Cincinnati, Ohio writes: "I have been giving my kids 1/4-1/8 tsp Tumeric in honey, once daily, heated for chronic allergies for about a week. Is this an appropriate dosage? I opted to put it in honey instead of milk because that is how they like it best. Does this make a difference? When do most people start seeing an improvement in their allergies?"

08/21/2008: Beverly from Houston, Texas writes: "Can everyone please give feedback on how you take the turmeric. I know it says with water but does it have to be water? Is that what makes it work? What are some of the other ways everyone has taken it and gotten good results."
Earth Clinic replies: "Please check out our Boils page for a few Turmeric recipes:

"In order for curcumin to be maximally effective against cancer, it MUST be introduced into the body in a bioavailable form. Curcumin is almost totally insoluble in water. On the other hand, it is completely soluble in fat.
Curcumin dissolves readily in coconut milk or cream, especially if they are warm. There is NO reason to boil coconut milk or cream in order to dissolve curcumin. Never boil anything unless you are absolutely certain the heat will not damage the medicinal properties of the natural medicine. I have no idea how heat stable curcumin is for medicinal purposes. So don't boil it.
Curcumin that is dissolved in fat will be introduced into the lymphatic system with the fat. There is exactly where we want curcumin to be introduced into the body. The lymphatic fluid bathes all the tissues in the body. We are NOT interested in directly introducing it into the blood.
People complain about the taste of curcumin. So add other spices, such as turmeric, or other spices to the mix to change the taste.
How much curcumin do we need to treat cancer and leukemia? No one knows but I would recommend at least 10 grams a day, 5 grams twice a day dissolved in fat. Since curcumin is not toxic, why screw around with low doses?
You must use glutamine, at least 20 grams a day, with the curcumin to make it maximally effective. I blogged on this issue yesterday.

03/30/2009: Lizbet from Vancouver, BC replies: "I have tried to ingest curcumin, but have had problems with diarrhea. Have tried several brands (some with medium chain triglycerides) and always the same: cramping and diarrhea. I think eating yogurt at the same time might help a bit - seems to, but not significantly. I've dissolved the curcumin in oil, taken it with cod liver oil etc. No luck. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?"
