I don't use turmeric medicinally. But heard a tip that may be good for you to look into - that combining turmeric with black pepper makes the turmeric more effective.

I grind fresh turmeric for cooking and take it in the mornings with ginger and fenugreek, (a tablespoon when all three ingredients are mixed) with a spoon of honey.

+1. Combining turmeric with black pepper increases the absorption by 2000%, when I make turmeric milk I add freshly ground black pepper. My turmeric is freshly ground, I don’t buy store bought.

Where do you buy the fresh turmeric?

I’ve been sprinkling turmeric and black pepper on my food once a day but have no idea of that has any effect if the turmeric is just in powder form. I’m not looking for anything too strong so don’t want a supplement, just looking to complement an overall anti-inflammatory dietary approach
