My husband is currently having 3 monthly injections of Zolodex and 160 mg each day of Enzalutomide. Because of his aches he has started taking 125 mg of a tumeric supplement each day. This seems to have really helped with his aches. Is it OK to take? I've read mixed reviews.

Would welcome any advice.

Widely renowned to help with many health conditions. I tried it for a few months but gave me huge gastric and bowel issues so stopped it !

Generally speaking, it is better to eat well than to take proxessed versions - turmeric can be added to just about any recipe withour affecting flavour too much and ex-member Trevor_Boothe even used to have turmeric on his breakfast cereal! You shouldn't take any supplements without checking with either the oncologist or pharmacist that there is no conflict.
