I use aloe vera as lubricant for supposotories - can't say if it works on its own but either they or the supposotories certainly help

Christine - I use tablets I wouldn't want to 'eat' any reasonable amount of turmeric every day. I would recommend Lamberts ones.

London - no not taken for a ride I tried it after reading about it including scientific articles on how it acts to reduce inflammation. I had blood for about 1 year every time I went to the loo and D as well every time. I had not seen a normal stool for a year. I took the turmeric 3x/day and the next day had perfectly formed stools and no blood - there was no way that was a co-incidence...

Sadly it seems to have less of an effect now - perhaps my immune system adapted or some bacteria adapted? Anyway it's reason enough for me to keep taking it.
