Your doctor may or may not be aware of its benefits. It's a supplement, not a drug. Drug companies inundate doctors with sales pitches, it's what resulted in the opioid crisis. Supplement makers don't. There's also the matter of supplements that don't work, which is most of them. That gives them all a bad name.
There's a lot of buzz about turmeric now, but there wasn't when I started taking it, so I had to do my own research. I discovered that people in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh don't suffer arthritis pain at anywhere near the rate that the rest of the world does. They have the same or even higher incidence of arthritis, but not the pain levels. The reason is turmeric. It's a primary ingredient of curry, which they practically live on. It also may reduce the incidence of Covid deaths. In the earlier stages of the pandemic it wasn't Covid that caused most of the deaths, it was lung inflammation that accompanied Covid. The death rate in India was a tenth that of the US.
