I've been taking turmeric for just over a month now - I've not felt as well as I do now for about 6 years, when all my chest problems started. I'm 17 now, but for the age of 11 or 12 I've needed 2 or 3 week courses of IVs almost every month and felt like total c**p most of the time. But since taking the turmeric I've felt great and not needed IVs for a while.However, I really want to start taking pure curcumin as I feel it will help me much more, but I cant find it anywhere! I live in England and can only seem to find it on american websites - it would cost me more to have it shipped over to england than it would to buy one bottle!I would be grateful for any information about where I can purchase Curcumin in England. 500 mg tablets would be ideal but anything else would be fine as I'm getting desperate!Thanks.Laura

Hi Laura,I did a quick search and found this website selling turmeric root extract (95% curcumin), not the 500 mg tablets you were looking for, but it looks like you get free shipping in the UK.www.worldwideshoppingmall.co.uk/ body-soul/turmeric-root-extract.asp Hope you continue to feel better.Richard 30 w/cf, Canada

Hi madmax,I calculated that I should take 2g of curcumin a day so 2 twice a day should be ok.Do you know which CF mutations you have? As curcumin only helps Class 2 mutations (eg deltaF508).I found a website where I can buy the Lambert's brand so I've emailed them just to check what they're giving me then I'll order it.Thanks a lot.Laura
Hello Laura,I read an article on curcumin in CF Today and thought I'd check it out. I found a website which sells different brands, it's called The Nutricentre and it's at www.nutricentre.com , just do a search for curcumin. They offer free delivery over £25.00, £1.75 for orders under that. Don't know if that's important, but postage charges can make a big difference to the price can't they.I'm glad to hear you're feeling better, I am definitely going to try this. I have 2 Delta F508 genes by the way.Hazel
