Thanks

In addition to what you said, many seem to get positive results from using curcumin/turmeric. I used it with the black pepper extract for several months...and saw no relief from the inflammation I had in my thumbs.....arthritis.

I switched to boswellia/bioperine combination and get great results.
I also saw relief from the swelling/pain in my thumbs after I removed wheat/gluten from my diet.

IOW....YMMV.
As with prescription drugs, not all drugs/supplements work the same on different people.

What dosage of this combo were you taking that helped your arthritis and has it had long term positive effect for you?

Black pepper is rather healthy and useful ingredient. And you do the right thing by drinking hot water with it
