I was told by someone at whole foods that taking specialized curcumins that help it cross the blood brain barrier do absolutely nothing for colon and gut health, it only helps with brain inflammation and alzheimers, and is for brain function.
He told me that if you want to reduce inflammation in the gut, you should just take regular turmeric or curcumin none of the specialized ones like longvida, meriva, novasol, etc.
He claims thats what he read about people with inflammatory bowels that the specialized curcumins do not work on them.
Can someone give me an honest opinion is the guy correct?
