> Anybody experience a difference in mood from using turmeric? I don't know if it would help. Any experiences? So far, I've heard that cinnamon and garlic have a positive impact on mood, but wondering if turmeric has any positive benefits.
Turmeric is supposedly helpful in that it is an MAO inhibitor. It is also anti-inflammation. I've never actually heard of anyone claiming it did that in any kind of amazing fashion, but it is widely touted on the net.
I discovered that it made me feel absolutely horrible. It felt to me like Moclobemide did. I do really bad on anything that is just MAOI-A and that's what it felt like to me. Not only that, but inflammation I had under some kind of managibility just flared up big time on turmeric. So you can't always believe what you read. Mileage varies.
That said, it is worth a try for everyone as I see it.
