I was over 500lb recently.. You might not believe it, but I just lost 25lb in under 2 weeks. A big part of the reason for this of course was my diet and fasting window. But what’s really funny is that most of my meals had Turmeric as part of the meat seasoning.. It’s just funny and awesome to me that this video just got uploaded when it did. Thanks for all that you do Thomas. You’re helping to inspire me to change my life 😊🙏🏾
I was almost 300lbs and I’m a paraplegic so I was convinced there was no way I could lose weight. Then I found this channel and by mixing up my diet and fasting, I’ve dropped down to 200lbs in only 9 months. Don’t give up. You can do it .

Tumeric has curcumin.. Curcumin is essential for the body. Taking tumeric with some sort of fat allows the body to absorb curcumin by 2000%.

@@arkadifomintsev3679 I take Schwartz Turmeric Curcumin 1500mg, which is 3 capsules, every morning at breakfast. On days where I lifted extra hard and think I might be a little sore, I will take 2 capsules at bedtime. The daily intake in the mornings seems to really have helped me. I'm a believer.
These kind of topics and how you present it: marvelous. I just want to add 2 little things... First, there is a holy trinity of plants in the ginger family: curcuma, ginger, and galangal. Ginger is even stronger for pain relief and anti-inflammatory than curcuma. dried ginger also enhances metabolic base rate. Second, curcuma is known to activate the feeding =waste clearing potential of macrophages, without intesifying the inflammation on that path. thanks again, keep this up!
I was on vacation with a toothache. My dental appointment wasn't until I returned, but I drank turmeric and pepper every morning with water heated in the hotel room coffee maker. It kept the pain and inflammation at bay well enough to enjoy myself.
I started buying free-range meats a few months back and my health has skyrocketed hard since then. I am absolutely gobsmashed. Now I ordered Biodynamic meat... Which is both "ecological" and fed a natural diet ie no wheat or other mass produced food pills. Retentive farming as well is a prerequisite to do biodynamic meats. I believe the solution is many small local farms with restorative farming techniques. Both for health and mother Gaia.
As an Indian I can confirm whenever we are injured, we take turmeric in warm milk at night. Works wonder. In the last 6 months, I have injured my leg, tore finger ligament (sports injury) and recently was in a car accident. Took turmeric and inflammation reduced and recovered faster.
I put this in my broths I drink everyday along with cayenne pepper and ginger . It helps with my arthritis most days so I don't have to take my meds so much . 🙃
Man, I've been using turmeric (and ginger) every day, practically, since 1978! I got into the habit when I lived with east Indians in Canada. I've always purchased it organic, by the pound. It really makes soups and many foods pretty without adding any overwhelming taste. I use full turmeric juice (and ginger juice) in my ACV tonic every day.
@@thinkgood7412 Phenomenal! I'm 62 years old and I feel great. No aches, pains or illnesses. I seldom tire. My weight is ideal. I need reading glasses. That's about it for age related decline. Also, folks guess I'm in my forties.

i had a friend die from acute liver failure from taking too much ibuprofen and motrin and acetaminophen when he tried to come off of pain killers so yeah, don't take them too often or too many at a time and don't take them with alcohol.
I've been taking turmeric for several years and it's been working great for me And it's very interesting to find out exactly why it's been working and how good it is for you so thank you
Turmeric I love it. Lost 40 lbs with turmeric mixed with ginger and black pepper I rather buy the root. Put it in a blender with a little water take it in the morning on an empty stomach and before bed time along with fasting It’s a miracle.
Take your tumeric with black pepper . When I have spices I put all my spices and water and just drink it like paprika turmeric cumin Ginger and thyme. Cloves cinnamon nutmeg what-have-you. Maybe at some apple cider. But I have never thought of combining tumeric and chia seeds with black pepper
Thank you my friend you’ve been very useful last August. I had open heart surgery and I’ve been following your nutritional information which is helped a lot and I’d like to take this opportunity and thank you .😊
My husband and I love turmeric and give it to our pets as.well. Understanding how it helps brain muscles and joints is extremely useful information for me right now. Thank you so much.
@@jannmaryrose I have some turmeric.mixed in.my coffee creamer that I make with cacao & maca and some monkfruit and I sprinkle it.on my food when I remember. I fed a large sprinkle to our senior beagle and applied it with coconut oil to some weird spots on her it helped a lot. I give it our 1yo.pitbull when I think about it. For a golden retriever as a nutritional supplement I would say up to a.tea spoon daily but I prefer to start with less and let the animal adjust to it. I hope the best for you and your awesome dog.🐾
The past few weeks I started to double dose of turmeric powder in every food and drink I consume (coffee, matcha and even making golden milk adding ceylon cinnamon). I had a stubborn blood glucose that was always over 100 fasting test in the morning, for Decades. Since last year IF and low carb diet brought blglucose down to the 90s. After increasing turmeric consumption in the past 2 weeks, this morning my blood glucose result show 75!!!!!for the first time in 20 years.
Chai made with heavy cream or coconut milk seems ideal cause the pepper helps the absorption and fat too. Trying to research what a daily dose of turmeric would look like. 1-3 grams / 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon seems to be the daily recommended anyone care to chime in on the daily amount?
If you buy organic tumeric then it should be a good quality; cheap tumeric can contain dyes and heavy metals such as lead (can RUclips how to tell apart). Getting the cellulose capsules with tumeric inside is fine; can take with water or break the capsule. Should get tumeric and black pepper; black pepper increases absorption
I take it every day with pepper. I use ground turmeric when I have no fresh turmeric available. I don't know if it does me any good or not but if I knock back quickly, I can't taste it. I do the same for garlic.
I throw equal amounts of fresh turmeric and ginger in the blender and add it to a jar with a little honey, ground pepper and lemon zest. I keep it in the fridge and take a teaspoon a day straight from the jar. The honey may be frowned on by most but it's my one guilty pleasure and saves chopping the ginger and turmeric in small amounts every day.
Some guidance on how to determine dosage is important. I sprinkle some turmeric into my coffee on fasting days, but it’s hard to know how much is a minimum effective dose.
Most of the beneficial compounds in turmeric are fat soluble. Simply placing turmeric in coffee will result in minimal absorption. I'd suggest taking it along with some sort of fat to get the benefits and enhance absorption. Also with a sprinkle or two of black pepper. Just FYI.
@@jeccym8715 Turmeric is fat soluble (or a large percentage of the good stuff inside of it such as curcumin, is). You need the fat to get proper absoprtion of the beneficial compounds. So boiling in plain water would not be as effective for absorbing the turmeric into our bodies.
For me I started with a powder that I put in a veggie capsule so I could take the same amount everyday. First few doses gave me soft stools (sorry to be blunt but…) and kept increasing that effect so I backed off and let my body get used to it. So I took 1 every couple of days for a few weeks until I was at 1/day. I tried 2/day after a month and it was fine but when I added milk thistle and dandelion root to my regimen I backed down to 1/day again due to the side effects from all 3 products. All this to say, each person is going to tolerate it differently based on their health and what other things are in their diet. I believe turmeric is a great help to our body. If I get to 12 capsules per day, which is about one teaspoon I will probably stop there. That is about 5.5 grams. I do not think my body will tolerate more than that. Each person must self regulate their dose as no one else can as each body, their absorption level etc. and lifestyle is different. Cheers
Now I know what the problem has been all these years! My brain is just not elastic enough! I've just drunk my first turmeric tea and couldn't believe how good it was. Your advice is good thankyou.
I'm sure most of you who watch T.D regularly are aware of this, but if you pause the video when Thomas refers to the studies, it is the curcumin within turmeric that is doing all this work. If you consume turmeric, black pepper is needed to help absorption, or you may buy a liquid liposomal curcumin product that gives you the curcumin directly. I buy mine through Dr. Amy Myers MD. It is excellent!!!
Hi Thomas! I love your videos and just thought maybe I could give you a new idea (if you haven’t done this already) and that is how to continue weight loss after an injury. I recently broke a bone in my foot and cannot do the running and walking I was doing to sustain my weight and further weight loss. I’m unsure of a sustainable way to get cardio with a broken foot and how I should combat this with my current caloric intake. I’m sure injuries are very common for people who are fairly active or just getting active.
If you have an injury you need to rest that injury until healed. However, if you're adamant on continuing some form of exercise you'll find that swimming has very little strenuous effects on joints. If you don't partake in any exercise and shift your dietary lifestyle to ketogenic and combine this with intermittent fasting it is very unlikely you will gain weight
1 teaspoon of turmeric in a small glass of full fat milk and a sprinkle of black pepper daily. Very beneficial. also good handful of mixed nuts each day 👍
Hi @thomas, i love your videos and had been a fan for 10 years. can you please make a video or comment because there is huge thread on reddit that turmeic supplements cause liver damage. Many reputed news agency as well covering this , whats going on here. I am an Indian , we are consuming turmeric for 1000 of years. anyways , cheers for the good work :)
We've been adding turmeric to our cooking for quite a while, now, and feeling pretty good about doing it. However, I came across a couple of different news items that said significant amounts of lead that have been found in spices, turmeric being the one with the highest levels and the most abundantly available. The article said it was added to enhance color and add weight. The samples were purchased from stores like Whole Foods and other supermarkets. The article said the amounts found could pose a health risk, especially to children. My question for you is: Have you heard about this and, have you found out if there is any credence to these reports? After coming across these stories, I have stopped adding it to our food. If there is any veracity to these reports, I figure it is better to be safer than sorry. What are your thoughts?
Generally in the powder where they add as a colour enhancer, I had to find fresh online and freeze it. There are ways to test for it in powder if you do a search online.
I started taking turmeric after my abdominal surgery(Hysterotomy and hernia repair) . I decided not to take Motrin. It is two weeks post operation and my swelling has gone completely.
I make my own 50/50 blend of tumeric & neem (900mg) pills. I take one daily. I've been doing the OMAD thing, too and have went from 294lbs to 275lbs in two weeks. And my stomach is not bloated since cutting all carbs. I'm excited, but my goal is to up my game. 36hr FAST kicks my azz. I'm getting closer to finishing one successfully.
Are you taking electrolytes when you fast? I only ask because I recently did a 36-hour fast successfully, but near the end of it, my heart was racing, and I did not feel good at all. I realized with more research that I should have been consuming electrolytes with my water intake.
@@FelineAdrenaline Absolutely. I use a company called BRAIN FORZA - 'SUPER FAST' electrolytes. It cost $39.99 on eBay. I use a teaspoon in my coffee and it is the #1 support for fasting. Yeah. You could've passed out.
How much turmeric should we consume in a given day to target inflammation? I'm 41 years old and have arthritis in my hip. I'm prone to use raw turmeric blended into smoothies. Maybe about 1/2 inch or so. I'm always unsure of how much I should consume
6-8 grams have been tested to be safe for long period. even 12 grams actually have been tested but just for 3 months to be safe. So I'd say 4-6 grams is the best to take to be safe side and get therapeutic effects
I was searching online and can't find my answer. Do you know which from of turmeric is best? I see turmeric, curcumin, and turmeric extract. Then I seen some seller saying they have BCM-95. My wife has very severe dry eye. She produces no tears whatsoever and we are hoping that this will help with the inflammation because she is in pain constantly and can't hardly go outside during daylight hours and I have moderate arthritis in my back and was hoping this could help with my lower back, but I don't know which one to buy. I was going to buy the powder and put them in capsules myself to save money. Thanks.
Hi, Thomas! I love, love your videos and appreciate the science!!! I am, however, getting overwhelmed in trying to figure out what my daily vitamin supplement regimen should be!!! I am doing a protein heavy keto diet, I'm 50 yrs old and trying to lose weight and maintain muscle and skin tone. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! I understand that you are not a doctor. 😉😊 (ps: my PCP is not interested in addressing supplements.)
I was drinking/eating turmeric daily for a long time. It can slow liver function significantly, and I ended up severely caffeine sensitive. Once stopping, it took over a year for my liver function to return to normal. Be careful.
@@rebecca3745 I would have golden milk (turmeric latte) 3-4 nights a week before bed, and also eating it with meals. Probably consistently for about 6-9 months before I noticed I couldn’t sleep if I had any caffeine (it never bothered me before.)
So you became caffeine sensitive but did you actually get the test done to discover that your liver was failing? Or are you assuming due to the caffeine sensitivity?
Great explanation of the benefits of Turmeric mate. 2 x query, I have is how much Turmeric is required to achieve the benefits you discussed. Is there anything else you can take with Turmeric to release more of it's benefits. Personally I'm in favor of Fresh Turmeric with black pepper and Nigella Seeds over tablets. your thoughts?
Hi. Sounds good. You should grind nigella seeds in coffee grinder for absorption, Also add flax whole flaxseed for great fiber and protein. Keep ground flax in freezer to o protects it precious oils.
turmeric more effective if you have some black pepper. For congestion and remove mucus from lungs, I take egg, turmeric, black pepper in coconut milk and warm it.also add ginger.
I take a magnesium suppliment that includes turmeric once a day. I imagine that it would be a trace amount. What would be a reasonable amount of turmeric to take daily for anti inflammatory benefits? Thanks😊
Yep, turmeric am good, use it daily. I've been wanting to try pork again, after years of not eating it. I like that they take good care of their animals. But not good with ingredients: "natural flavors" (what's that?), "water" (not filtered?), "sugar" (aka refined, bleck), "vinegar" (you mean, like what I clean stuff with?), and all the other non-organic ingredients (no indicators of being so).
What do you think about turmeric supposedly being one of the highest oxolate-containing plants? Oxolates in high quantities (turmeric has very high levels) can cause gut inflammation and other issues which may negate some of the benefits of taking it. Maybe we'd be better off if we were taking an extract, perhaps?
@@MoJams901 Oxolates are very water soluble. So if you did a fat-based extract (liposomal usually is), then oxolates should not be a problem. But turmeric also has other compounds that are beneficial too, not just curcumin. That's why it's tricky to just extract one compound from the plant and assume you have all the benefits. Turmeric is a complex plant. Look up the list of "active compounds" in Turmeric and the list is miles long. Curcumin just has the most research on it as an isolated substance.
Hi Thomas: Thanks for all the information but can you clarify the following. In this video, are you talking about the benefits of Turmeric or just curcumin? Are all the different benefits you mention here from either, or, or both Turmeric and curcumin? What I am taking mentions only the curcumin content and not any other compounds that turmeric contains. Thanks in advance.
Although Curcumin has been studied the most, whole turmeric is better overall as it contains many analogs of Curcumin (called Curcuminoids) which have a more wide and varied medicinal effect on different cells in the body.
Good morning Thomas happy Thanksgiving to you and your family I have a quick question the new book you have on Amazon coming up or they include the meal plan in there I need to order one thank you.
Great, but what is the best source of turmeric? Best way to take it, right amount, best time, and what other ingredients, if any should it be consumed with for best absorption? What, if any, ingredients could hinder absorption, so you can avoid taking them along with turmeric?
Dr. Paul Saladino, a person you have had on your podcast in the past, would call the benefits identified here as b s in a podcast 28 Oct 21 on Spotify. For instance many of the benefits, like reducing inflammation, is not necessarily the best because this approach is not addressing the cause of the inflammation. Dr. Saladino did find studies that did point to quite a number of negative effects of ingesting Tumeric and or Cumin, that were scientifically sourced. As Board Certified Nutrition Specialist, I would love to see him on your channel, in a back and forth discussion to help us with making a safe and best decision on using Tumeric. This would be much like you did when Dr. Layne Norton came on your channel after he called you out for claims you made, that changed your mind. We need to see a granular examination of best case scientific studies that are not just limited to some narrow or one off indication of some positive effects, so we can make the best choices possible for our health and safety.

These kind of topics and how you present it: marvelous.
I just want to add 2 little things... First, there is a holy trinity of plants in the ginger family: curcuma, ginger, and galangal. Ginger is even stronger for pain relief and anti-inflammatory than curcuma. dried ginger also enhances metabolic base rate.
Second, curcuma is known to activate the feeding =waste clearing potential of macrophages, without intesifying the inflammation on that path.
thanks again, keep this up!
I take a daily supplement containing turmeric and it helped me immensely with my knee and shoulder pain.
I was on vacation with a toothache. My dental appointment wasn't until I returned, but I drank turmeric and pepper every morning with water heated in the hotel room coffee maker. It kept the pain and inflammation at bay well enough to enjoy myself.
I started buying free-range meats a few months back and my health has skyrocketed hard since then. I am absolutely gobsmashed.
Now I ordered Biodynamic meat... Which is both "ecological" and fed a natural diet ie no wheat or other mass produced food pills.
Retentive farming as well is a prerequisite to do biodynamic meats. I believe the solution is many small local farms with restorative farming techniques. Both for health and mother Gaia.
As an Indian I can confirm whenever we are injured, we take turmeric in warm milk at night. Works wonder. In the last 6 months, I have injured my leg, tore finger ligament (sports injury) and recently was in a car accident. Took turmeric and inflammation reduced and recovered faster.
How do you make it? Cook or just mix and drink? Why in the night?
@@jeccym8715 just mix powder and drink
How are you doing now ?
You are living on the edge.
@@geistreichtube lol, living on a shoestring maybe
I put this in my broths I drink everyday along with cayenne pepper and ginger . It helps with my arthritis most days so I don't have to take my meds so much . 🙃
Man, I've been using turmeric (and ginger) every day, practically, since 1978! I got into the habit when I lived with east Indians in Canada. I've always purchased it organic, by the pound. It really makes soups and many foods pretty without adding any overwhelming taste. I use full turmeric juice (and ginger juice) in my ACV tonic every day.
How is your health?
@@thinkgood7412 Phenomenal! I'm 62 years old and I feel great. No aches, pains or illnesses. I seldom tire. My weight is ideal. I need reading glasses. That's about it for age related decline. Also, folks guess I'm in my forties.
@@delphinekirkland1757 wow that's amazing, grt to hear how you keep away from big pharma and save thousands maybe more. I had stopped taking turmeric for about 2 years. I plan to take it for the rest of my life along with ginger and garlic too.
@@thinkgood7412 Yes, I cook with those three everyday. It's great being healthy and feeling good because it makes it easier to stay active and fit. I live in the mountains and hike 5 miles or more most days. Just started skipping rope. Love it!
@@delphinekirkland1757 omg living in the mountains is my dream! Everything natural literally. Skipping wow that's awesome, I am waiting for the day I can sprint again God willing soon but I need to first get away from all the polluted toxic food that's making us all sick
i had a friend die from acute liver failure from taking too much ibuprofen and motrin and acetaminophen when he tried to come off of pain killers so yeah, don't take them too often or too many at a time and don't take them with alcohol.
Starting to increase my turmeric use, and this video was awesome. Happy Thanksgiving TD.
I've been taking turmeric for several years and it's been working great for me And it's very interesting to find out exactly why it's been working and how good it is for you so thank you
11:40 🤣🤣🤣I had to watch it over three times again just to see what you actually said ! Thanks for sharing and keep ‘em coming !
Turmeric I love it. Lost 40 lbs with turmeric mixed with ginger and black pepper
I rather buy the root. Put it in a blender with a little water take it in the morning on an empty stomach and before bed time along with fasting
It’s a miracle.
Love the topic, I supplement and sprinkle turmeric with any nuts. Consuming nuts w/ turmeric info came from you!
Take your tumeric with black pepper . When I have spices I put all my spices and water and just drink it like paprika turmeric cumin Ginger and thyme. Cloves cinnamon nutmeg what-have-you. Maybe at some apple cider. But I have never thought of combining tumeric and chia seeds with black pepper
Thank you Doll😘! Love your mini classes 💞
Thank you my friend you’ve been very useful last August. I had open heart surgery and I’ve been following your nutritional information which is helped a lot and I’d like to take this opportunity and thank you .😊
My husband and I love turmeric and give it to our pets as.well. Understanding how it helps brain muscles and joints is extremely useful information for me right now. Thank you so much.
Christine, how much do you take per day and how much per day should I give my 70lb golden retriever? Tia
@@jannmaryrose I have some turmeric.mixed in.my coffee creamer that I make with cacao & maca and some monkfruit and I sprinkle it.on my food when I remember. I fed a large sprinkle to our senior beagle and applied it with coconut oil to some weird spots on her it helped a lot. I give it our 1yo.pitbull when I think about it. For a golden retriever as a nutritional supplement I would say up to a.tea spoon daily but I prefer to start with less and let the animal adjust to it. I hope the best for you and your awesome dog.🐾
Possible word of caution: I was anemic and turmeric may have made it worse. I read that it inhibits iron absorption/ chelates iron. Just a note.
Thats actually good to know. Especially for men.
The past few weeks I started to double dose of turmeric powder in every food and drink I consume (coffee, matcha and even making golden milk adding ceylon cinnamon). I had a stubborn blood glucose that was always over 100 fasting test in the morning, for Decades. Since last year IF and low carb diet brought blglucose down to the 90s. After increasing turmeric consumption in the past 2 weeks, this morning my blood glucose result show 75!!!!!for the first time in 20 years.
Can you review black turmeric? I have already been taking turmeric with water and other natural supplements. You are always the best!
Damn Tom , how the heck did you know I started with turmeric last Sunday. Its starting to show to be beneficial. Thanks...
Chai made with heavy cream or coconut milk seems ideal cause the pepper helps the absorption and fat too. Trying to research what a daily dose of turmeric would look like. 1-3 grams / 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon seems to be the daily recommended anyone care to chime in on the daily amount?
How much should we take a day? And what one is best? Pill, root,? Who has the best in store pill form??
If you buy organic tumeric then it should be a good quality; cheap tumeric can contain dyes and heavy metals such as lead (can RUclips how to tell apart). Getting the cellulose capsules with tumeric inside is fine; can take with water or break the capsule. Should get tumeric and black pepper; black pepper increases absorption
I use organic turmeric powder and use a teaspoon per serving
@@davidbrachetto1420 i have turmeric in seasoning form (just called Kurkuma in my country) to just sprinkle on my rice. Is that a good form?
I take it every day with pepper. I use ground turmeric when I have no fresh turmeric available. I don't know if it does me any good or not but if I knock back quickly, I can't taste it. I do the same for garlic.
I throw equal amounts of fresh turmeric and ginger in the blender and add it to a jar with a little honey, ground pepper and lemon zest. I keep it in the fridge and take a teaspoon a day straight from the jar. The honey may be frowned on by most but it's my one guilty pleasure and saves chopping the ginger and turmeric in small amounts every day.
great video... black pepper activates turmeric. adding a little black pepper to turmeric makes turmeric more beneficial
Some guidance on how to determine dosage is important. I sprinkle some turmeric into my coffee on fasting days, but it’s hard to know how much is a minimum effective dose.
Most of the beneficial compounds in turmeric are fat soluble. Simply placing turmeric in coffee will result in minimal absorption. I'd suggest taking it along with some sort of fat to get the benefits and enhance absorption. Also with a sprinkle or two of black pepper. Just FYI.
@@PatrickDAllen1 how about boiling it with tea or milk (less fat) or just with water?
@@jeccym8715 Turmeric is fat soluble (or a large percentage of the good stuff inside of it such as curcumin, is). You need the fat to get proper absoprtion of the beneficial compounds. So boiling in plain water would not be as effective for absorbing the turmeric into our bodies.
@@PatrickDAllen1 patrick is right
For me I started with a powder that I put in a veggie capsule so I could take the same amount everyday. First few doses gave me soft stools (sorry to be blunt but…) and kept increasing that effect so I backed off and let my body get used to it. So I took 1 every couple of days for a few weeks until I was at 1/day. I tried 2/day after a month and it was fine but when I added milk thistle and dandelion root to my regimen I backed down to 1/day again due to the side effects from all 3 products. All this to say, each person is going to tolerate it differently based on their health and what other things are in their diet. I believe turmeric is a great help to our body. If I get to 12 capsules per day, which is about one teaspoon I will probably stop there. That is about 5.5 grams. I do not think my body will tolerate more than that. Each person must self regulate their dose as no one else can as each body, their absorption level etc. and lifestyle is different. Cheers
Now I know what the problem has been all these years! My brain is just not elastic enough!
I've just drunk my first turmeric tea and couldn't believe how good it was. Your advice is good thankyou.
Could you look into Neem powder and what effects it has on your biology?
I want to know about NEEM too!!!
Turmeric is a miracle. I drink my cup of turmeric tea every night. I add black peppercorn, ginger, cardamom, anise, and clove.
I'm sure most of you who watch T.D regularly are aware of this, but if you pause the video when Thomas refers to the studies, it is the curcumin within turmeric that is doing all this work. If you consume turmeric, black pepper is needed to help absorption, or you may buy a liquid liposomal curcumin product that gives you the curcumin directly. I buy mine through Dr. Amy Myers MD. It is excellent!!!
Hi Thomas! I love your videos and just thought maybe I could give you a new idea (if you haven’t done this already) and that is how to continue weight loss after an injury. I recently broke a bone in my foot and cannot do the running and walking I was doing to sustain my weight and further weight loss. I’m unsure of a sustainable way to get cardio with a broken foot and how I should combat this with my current caloric intake. I’m sure injuries are very common for people who are fairly active or just getting active.
Look up chair workouts
Thank you I will
my old gym had an arm bike (ergometer) it was pretty fun
If you have an injury you need to rest that injury until healed. However, if you're adamant on continuing some form of exercise you'll find that swimming has very little strenuous effects on joints. If you don't partake in any exercise and shift your dietary lifestyle to ketogenic and combine this with intermittent fasting it is very unlikely you will gain weight
Eat less
1 teaspoon of turmeric in a small glass of full fat milk and a sprinkle of black pepper daily. Very beneficial. also good handful of mixed nuts each day 👍
Thomas...which brand is best? Liquid or powder? How much per day? Please let us know. Thanks as always!!!!
Thks for sharing this video about turmeric!
Hi @thomas, i love your videos and had been a fan for 10 years. can you please make a video or comment because there is huge thread on reddit that turmeic supplements cause liver damage. Many reputed news agency as well covering this , whats going on here. I am an Indian , we are consuming turmeric for 1000 of years. anyways , cheers for the good work :)
We've been adding turmeric to our cooking for quite a while, now, and feeling pretty good about doing it. However, I came across a couple of different news items that said significant amounts of lead that have been found in spices, turmeric being the one with the highest levels and the most abundantly available. The article said it was added to enhance color and add weight. The samples were purchased from stores like Whole Foods and other supermarkets. The article said the amounts found could pose a health risk, especially to children.
My question for you is: Have you heard about this and, have you found out if there is any credence to these reports? After coming across these stories, I have stopped adding it to our food. If there is any veracity to these reports, I figure it is better to be safer than sorry. What are your thoughts?
I have heard the same thing....i am tryiny to track down the good turmeric...
Interesting. I’ll see what I find as well And report back
Generally in the powder where they add as a colour enhancer, I had to find fresh online and freeze it. There are ways to test for it in powder if you do a search online.
if you don’t feel safe with the powder but still want the benefits then you should buy the actual turmeric root.
Or just ask for the COA and see if they test for such contaminates.
Thanks! I'm starting to learn and know what some of the terms mean (before you explain them!) (Maybe it's the turmeric I'm taking!). Happy Holidays!
Truly appreciate this nerd. And I say this with a full complement behind it
I started taking turmeric after my abdominal surgery(Hysterotomy and hernia repair) . I decided not to take Motrin. It is two weeks post operation and my swelling has gone completely.
I make my own 50/50 blend of tumeric & neem (900mg) pills. I take one daily. I've been doing the OMAD thing, too and have went from 294lbs to 275lbs in two weeks. And my stomach is not bloated since cutting all carbs. I'm excited, but my goal is to up my game. 36hr FAST kicks my azz. I'm getting closer to finishing one successfully.
Are you taking electrolytes when you fast? I only ask because I recently did a 36-hour fast successfully, but near the end of it, my heart was racing, and I did not feel good at all. I realized with more research that I should have been consuming electrolytes with my water intake.
@@FelineAdrenaline Absolutely. I use a company called BRAIN FORZA - 'SUPER FAST' electrolytes. It cost $39.99 on eBay. I use a teaspoon in my coffee and it is the #1 support for fasting. Yeah. You could've passed out.
How is your journey going? Update
Great information, thank you Thomas. 🍵
How much turmeric should we consume in a given day to target inflammation? I'm 41 years old and have arthritis in my hip. I'm prone to use raw turmeric blended into smoothies. Maybe about 1/2 inch or so. I'm always unsure of how much I should consume
6-8 grams have been tested to be safe for long period.
even 12 grams actually have been tested but just for 3 months to be safe.
So I'd say 4-6 grams is the best to take to be safe side and get therapeutic effects
Can tumeric drink help straighten bent neck , heal shoulder pain and lmprove chewing of food food ?
Can you add Tumeric to the ACV as well as ginger ?
I take turmeric every day. Great to hear some new info on it!
Please more info on how much when taking dried tumeric powder and how much when using the fresh root for optimal benefit. 🌸🤔🌸
Thank you soooo much that’s a great scientific content. It’s very helpful and reliable ❤
What about the dosages? Or the best form of it , powder or fresh shredded or just supplement it?
I was searching online and can't find my answer. Do you know which from of turmeric is best? I see turmeric, curcumin, and turmeric extract. Then I seen some seller saying they have BCM-95. My wife has very severe dry eye. She produces no tears whatsoever and we are hoping that this will help with the inflammation because she is in pain constantly and can't hardly go outside during daylight hours and I have moderate arthritis in my back and was hoping this could help with my lower back, but I don't know which one to buy. I was going to buy the powder and put them in capsules myself to save money. Thanks.
Please address how much and how to take and when.
Hi, Thomas! I love, love your videos and appreciate the science!!! I am, however, getting overwhelmed in trying to figure out what my daily vitamin supplement regimen should be!!! I am doing a protein heavy keto diet, I'm 50 yrs old and trying to lose weight and maintain muscle and skin tone. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! I understand that you are not a doctor. 😉😊 (ps: my PCP is not interested in addressing supplements.)
yeah, your right, it can get a bit complicated sometimes
I was drinking/eating turmeric daily for a long time. It can slow liver function significantly, and I ended up severely caffeine sensitive. Once stopping, it took over a year for my liver function to return to normal. Be careful.
Oh wow, good to know!
Monica, do you have an idea of specific quantity and length of time?
Big Pharma don’t want us to know about Turmeric
@@rebecca3745 I would have golden milk (turmeric latte) 3-4 nights a week before bed, and also eating it with meals. Probably consistently for about 6-9 months before I noticed I couldn’t sleep if I had any caffeine (it never bothered me before.)
So you became caffeine sensitive but did you actually get the test done to discover that your liver was failing? Or are you assuming due to the caffeine sensitivity?
Great explanation of the benefits of Turmeric mate.
2 x query, I have is how much Turmeric is required to achieve the benefits you discussed.
Is there anything else you can take with Turmeric to release more of it's benefits.
Personally I'm in favor of Fresh Turmeric with black pepper and Nigella Seeds over tablets. your thoughts?
Hi. Sounds good. You should grind nigella seeds in coffee grinder for absorption, Also add flax whole flaxseed for great fiber and protein. Keep ground flax in freezer to o protects it precious oils.
Thomas, do you know if the lemon juice or acid destroys the curcumins and cancel turmeric benefits?
Can (should) you take tumeric OR curcurmin during your fast period? If so when would be best?
These benefits are amazing! This is exactly why we made our product Turmeric Curcumin Plus by Staver Health. Thank you so much for this video!
Gawd u R a smart man!
turmeric more effective if you have some black pepper. For congestion and remove mucus from lungs, I take egg, turmeric, black pepper in coconut milk and warm it.also add ginger.
Great info!! Could you please tell me how much turmeric would be recommended per day to reap the most benefits?
Does it hinder iron n can you take it every day?
Thomas. Can you do a video about HOW MUCH of various supplements you need, and how much is too much?
Knowledgeable. Should have been better if mode of consumption when, in what volume and form turmeric should be taken
See the comments saying mix it with blk pepper …. I say be careful with that. It messed my stomach up. I was doing it everyday though.
I take a magnesium suppliment that includes turmeric once a day. I imagine that it would be a trace amount. What would be a reasonable amount of turmeric to take daily for anti inflammatory benefits? Thanks😊
I Add turmeric and cinnamon into my morning coffee. And then have apple cider vinegar and water in the morning as well you're off to the Races.
Excellent info. Thx Thomas
Thanks for all the info🙏🏼amazing
I was diagnosed with ALS a year ago, and have been taking Curcumin 2X daily ever since. Any advice?
Thanks Thomas!!!
Yep, turmeric am good, use it daily. I've been wanting to try pork again, after years of not eating it. I like that they take good care of their animals. But not good with ingredients: "natural flavors" (what's that?), "water" (not filtered?), "sugar" (aka refined, bleck), "vinegar" (you mean, like what I clean stuff with?), and all the other non-organic ingredients (no indicators of being so).
Bareorganics has the best turmeric coffee. It’s infused with ginger, cinnamon and dark cacao
What do you think about turmeric supposedly being one of the highest oxolate-containing plants? Oxolates in high quantities (turmeric has very high levels) can cause gut inflammation and other issues which may negate some of the benefits of taking it. Maybe we'd be better off if we were taking an extract, perhaps?
you can purchase a liquid curcumin product through Amy Myers MD that is liposomal with high absorption that does not cause any gut issues for me.
@@MoJams901 Oxolates are very water soluble. So if you did a fat-based extract (liposomal usually is), then oxolates should not be a problem. But turmeric also has other compounds that are beneficial too, not just curcumin. That's why it's tricky to just extract one compound from the plant and assume you have all the benefits.
Turmeric is a complex plant. Look up the list of "active compounds" in Turmeric and the list is miles long. Curcumin just has the most research on it as an isolated substance.
Take magnesium citrate and you won't get kidney stones. It works!
Also calcium binds to oxalates and will help excrete them
How many teaspoons of turmeric powder is safe for taking daily??
Some big words!! Very interesting!
Definitely would enjoy connecting with you
Hi Thomas: Thanks for all the information but can you clarify the following. In this video, are you talking about the benefits of Turmeric or just curcumin? Are all the different benefits you mention here from either, or, or both Turmeric and curcumin? What I am taking mentions only the curcumin content and not any other compounds that turmeric contains. Thanks in advance.
Although Curcumin has been studied the most, whole turmeric is better overall as it contains many analogs of Curcumin (called Curcuminoids) which have a more wide and varied medicinal effect on different cells in the body.
Good morning Thomas happy Thanksgiving to you and your family I have a quick question the new book you have on Amazon coming up or they include the meal plan in there I need to order one thank you.
Great, but what is the best source of turmeric? Best way to take it, right amount, best time, and what other ingredients, if any should it be consumed with for best absorption? What, if any, ingredients could hinder absorption, so you can avoid taking them along with turmeric?
Hi Thomas, I'm curious what you think about staying away from turmeric according to Andrew Hubberman, thank you before
Does it matter when you drink it as a tea during the day or right before bedtime
Dr. Paul Saladino, a person you have had on your podcast in the past, would call the benefits identified here as b s in a podcast 28 Oct 21 on Spotify. For instance many of the benefits, like reducing inflammation, is not necessarily the best because this approach is not addressing the cause of the inflammation. Dr. Saladino did find studies that did point to quite a number of negative effects of ingesting Tumeric and or Cumin, that were scientifically sourced. As Board Certified Nutrition Specialist, I would love to see him on your channel, in a back and forth discussion to help us with making a safe and best decision on using Tumeric. This would be much like you did when Dr. Layne Norton came on your channel after he called you out for claims you made, that changed your mind. We need to see a granular examination of best case scientific studies that are not just limited to some narrow or one off indication of some positive effects, so we can make the best choices possible for our health and safety.
So in my smoothy, I want to include turmeric along with my avocado in order to better absorb the Omega 3s in the avocado. I like that!
Don’t forget to add black pepper so the curcumin is absorbed in the body
Hey Thomas is Dbol as good as turmeric? Was wondering your thoughts on this …
Weirdly enough I'm currently looking for a COX-2 only inhibitor as I have gastritis and stomach lining issues. I will give this a try!
