Pain Oxymel

The combined absorption factors are described as increasing absorbed curcumin concentration by about 20-fold. The pain oxymel dose is 2 teaspoons three times daily for joint pain, cramps, soreness, or post-exercise inflammation. Turmeric contains curcumin, but raw turmeric is described as having about 1% bioavailability. The pain oxymel is claimed to improve curcumin absorption through vinegar extraction, honey fermentation, and piperine. Ginger contributes shogaol, which is described as a COX-2 inhibitor acting on the same pathway as ibuprofen. The pain oxymel is based on turmeric, ginger, black pepper, and honey. The pain oxymel should not be combined with NSAIDs or blood thinners.
