I have a high tolerance for pain. I am not big on pain medication of any kind. This being said, I get severe lower back pain and have carpel tunnel in both arms. There are days when I just give up and end up eating naproxen to ease the pain. While it does make the pain more bearable, it’s gotta be killin’ my stomach.
For the past two weeks I’ve been using Curamin. I am impressed.
I love that Curamin is natural. It is easy to take with the recommended dose of one capsule three times daily, or as needed. It is blended with four powerful, clinically proven ingredients that support the body’s natural anti-inflammatory response to relieve occasional muscle pain due to overuse and exercise.
These four power-house ingredients work together to inhibit different inflammatory compounds, promote positive mood and increase circulation.
DLPA
DL-phenylalanine is an amino acid consisting of equal parts D-phenylalanine and L-phenylalanine. D-phenylalanine inhibits the breakdown of compounds called enkephalins. Enkephalins are associated with positive mood and have been shown to relieve occasional muscle pain due to exercise or overuse. L-phenylalanine is converted into tyrosine, which in turn is used to produce the brain chemicals norepinephrine and dopamine.
Boswellia (Boswellia serrata)
Clinically tested Boswellia (BosPure) helps reduce the activity of the inflammatory enzyme, 5-LOX (lipoxygenase). A compound (beta boswellic acid) found in boswellia which interferes with its beneficial activity has been removed, greatly increasing the effectiveness of this extract.
Curcumin
Curcumin, a compound found in the spice turmeric, inhibits multiple inflammation pathways in the body. It is also a potent antioxidant. Some of the benefits associated with curcumin include immune system modulation, protection from oxidative stress and support for the body’s natural anti-inflammatory response. The specialized extract in this formula has the highest absorption of any curcumin extract available for maximum health benefits.
Nattokinase
The enzyme nattokinase helps promote blood flow, aiding the other ingredients in the formula to reach all areas of the body.DLPA (dl Phenylalanine), Boswellia (Boswellia serrata) Extract (BosPure) standardized to contain >70% boswellic acids with AKBA >15%, Curcumin (Curcuma longa) Extract (BCM-95®) standardized for curcuminoid complex (curcumin, demethoxycurcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin), NattokinaseAll ingredients are established in human studies for safety and effectiveness. Does not interfere with stomach, liver or kidney function.

I’ve noticed enough of a difference that I am a believer in Curamin. The first time I took it there was relief. I have since recommended this product to my dad for his joints and my grandma for her arthritis. My dad is considering it, my grandma said it did offer her some relief.
