Research evidence suggests that curcumin will be useful to treat patients especially in ARDS cases with high mortality risk. All the knowledge in this world is of no value unless we put it into practice

@RawSunlight @kurono_alien @rogwin0 @Barrabarra5 @drdavidgrimes Agree, however check this latest paper as a possible treatment. It’s not an FDA approved Covid drug treatment. Like diet and exercise, it has mostly positive side effects and is useful for overall health which hopefully reduces severity of Covid symptoms. https://t.co/5EZuU2u2QV
