Hey all, just saw these turmeric curcumin gummies pop up in my feed. The 'ultra high absorption' claim caught my eye - anyone know what tech they're using for that? Is it some kind of nano-emulsion or just marketing fluff? Also, 120 count seems like a decent value if they actually work. Would love to hear from anyone who's tracked their inflammation markers before/after.

I'm always skeptical about supplements in gummy form - so much added sugar usually! But these say non-GMO and gluten free which is good. My husband has been dealing with knee stiffness from gardening, and I prefer natural solutions over painkillers. Has anyone with arthritis or joint issues tried these? Do they actually help with morning stiffness? Also curious about the ginger content - is it noticeable or just for flavor?

Marathon runner here - I've been taking turmeric capsules for recovery for years, but the gummy form is intriguing for post-long run when I don't want to swallow pills. The peach flavor sounds way better than the earthy turmeric taste I'm used to! Has anyone used these specifically for exercise recovery? Do they help with DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness)? And are they easy on the stomach during intense training cycles?

Okay but the REAL question: how's the peach flavor actually taste? Is it that artificial candy peach or more natural? I've tried other turmeric supplements that taste like dirt, so if these are actually delicious that's a game changer. Also curious about texture - are they chewy like regular gummies or more medicinal? Might be worth it just for the taste if the joint benefits are legit!

Following up on my earlier post - I did some digging. The 'high absorption' seems to be from black pepper extract (piperine), which is pretty standard but effective. Not groundbreaking tech, but solid science. BerryBen, I'm with you on taste - if they've cracked the flavor code, that's actually significant for compliance. EarthElias, I'd be curious if the gummy format affects the timing of absorption compared to capsules for your recovery needs.

Update: I decided to try these for my husband. We're one week in and he says his knees feel 'less crunchy' when he stands up from the garden. Could be placebo, but he's noticing something! The peach flavor is surprisingly natural - tastes like real peach tea. No artificial aftertaste. They are quite sweet though (organic cane sugar), so if you're sugar-conscious, maybe take that into account. Going to give it a full month before final judgment!
