Bruce's preference is to keep taking them. We no longer buy "drugstore" supplements. One of the main issues with curcumin is poor bioavailability. So, Bruce is taking a curcumin supplement which is supposed to have improved bioavailability.put out by Thorne Labs, a company which our medical doctor feels is reliable.

As an interesting side note, I did find a current clinical trial for low risk MDS patients involving Maitake Mushrooms at Sloan Kettering. http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/sh...splasia&rank=1
Hmm Maitake Mushrooms. Interestingly, I just read about mushrooms being potent anti cancer foods. Food for thought indeed.
