Sports Research Turmeric Curcumin C3 Complex - Softgels with Bioperine Black Pepper Extract & Organic Coconut Oil, Standardized 95% Curcuminoids - Non-GMO Verified & Gluten Free - 500mg, 120 Count

I have taken this Turmeric for about 2 months. They have completely eliminated the pain in my hip.

First off, I love Sports Research supplements and take a few of their others as well. This particular one I really like, but consistency is key. I have been taking for about 2 months and I work out every day whether it be at the gym, running or on my Peloton bike and have knee pain, and this has helped tremendously. It is not a miracle in a bottle but does ease the pain and inflammation and I highly recommend.

I'd been using my son's supply of Tumeric Curcumin for the past several months, and several weeks ago he graciously suggested it might be a good idea for me to buy my own. : ' ) He was right, so I started exploring the different sources. Long story short: I chose Sports Research and Amazon and couldn't be happier.Amazon for availability and price and 2-day delivery using Prime.Sports Research for the quality of product.Sports Research uses the registered Sabinsas Corporation version of Curcurmin C3 and Bioperine (Black Pepper Extract).The Bioperine level is 2.5 mg which, from what I gather, is changed from an earlier 5 mg level. I believe that the 2.5 mg level is very effective and appears to me, from my personal experience, to not affect the quality of the product. Perhaps SR made this reduction in order to be able to offer this at an affordable price. I don't know this to be a fact, but I can say that this works !).Also, I noticed in reading other user comments that earlier versions used coconut oil. When I received my bottle, I immediately went to the contents on the bottle and read the following:"Kosher Gelatin, Purified Water, GMO Free High Oleic Safflower Oil, Organic Yellow Beeswax"Now, to be pefectly open, I had to look up "High Oleic" to see if we're talking a "good thing" or a "bad thing". The results:"High oleic oil is high in unsaturated fat, low in saturated fat, and has no trans fat. The large amount of monounsaturated fat in high oleic oil has been shown to lower LDL cholesterol (the bad kind) without lowering HDL cholesterol (the good kind). When LDL cholesterol goes down, so do the risks of heart disease, heart attacks, and stroke."Whew, so we're talking a good thing.I'm not exactly sure how the organic beeswax is used. Perhaps as a binder or filler or .... ? I don't know. I get the feeling that it takes the place of what is found in a number of other turmeric offerings: magnesium stearate, silica, silicon dioxide and titanium oxide. If that's the case, more power to Sports Research.One final little nicety is that their Turmeric Curcurmin is manufactured in the good ol' USA.Would I recommend this to a friend ? Yes.Am I having to "pay back" my son with my supply of SR Turmeric Curcurmin ? Yes. At least for a while. In a couple of weeks, though, I'll have to graciously suggest to him that he get his own supply in a couple of weeks. : ' )Good luck with whatever choice you make, I'm of the opinion you'd be very happy with SR's offering.

The softgels are easy to swallow and don’t leave a bad aftertaste. I like that this brand includes BioPerine which helps with absorption so you actually get the benefits. The quality feels high and I trust Sports Research because they use clean ingredients and clear labeling. This has become part of my regular supplement routine.

As far as I can tell, it is working.

I’ve noticed a difference with my knees since taking these. I feel less achy all over. It works well

These really help with joint pain. I take one every night and when I run out, I can tell.
