Dear Terry,
Curcumin is quite aggressive with the esophagus and the gastric
linen
and I recommend to my patients to ingest it with food and some

carbonate.
Hi Alex:
Thanks much for your prompt reply. Life Extension also recommends
taking their product with food. The reason I asked relates to the
following I saw on a physician's site who advocates hormone blockade
along with certain complementary supplements:
"The owner of the company that makes this product recommends that men
with prostate cancer be treated with two capsules three times per day
on an empty stomach, although the literature that I received
recommended taking it with a heavy meal. The owner of the company is
aware of this, and states that the recommendation to take it with food
is not correct, that it should be taken on an empty stomach. The good
news is that it is inexpensive; 60 capsules cost only about $15.00.
The product can be ordered by calling (888) 852-4993. The name of the
company is Natural Health Consultants."
Regards,
Terry
