Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

What's making you smile today?

That’s a long time, isn’t it? Probably 14 years actually. I’ve been a Fetchie for 13 and I knew you quite a while before I started running x

I was looking at landline phones for my Mum, and under the section of "products related to this item" were Turmeric capsules and cordless power tools!! :-) I had no idea what the supposed benefit of Turmeric is as a dietary supplement, so I had a look (in a private browser window so Amazon didn't then bombard me with links to dietary supplements).

This is the phone: amazon.co.uk

Apparently it's the curcumin that has the benefits, it's an anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory.

Supposedly it helps with oxidative and inflammatory conditions (including exercise related inflammation and soreness), metabolic syndrome, arthritis, anxiety, and high cholesterol.

Needs to be taken with black pepper to help it's absorption though. I think it increases it by something ridiculous like 1500%.

I may ir may not have looked into it myself whilst off on sick leave... I've got very bored! Lol.

I suppose the question is, was the reviewer's "lover function" an inflammatory condition? :-)
