@RawSunlight @rogwin0 @Barrabarra5 @drdavidgrimes The attached paper identifies the high correlation of low Covid mortality and high turmeric consumption. Though not proving causation, the fact turmeric has other well-known and proven health benefits make its use (with pepper for absorption) a no-brainer. https://t.co/oMX3eE7YCJ

Again, it’s suggestive of use due to efficacy for overall health and low downside potential: https://t.co/oMX3eE7YCJ
