Re: turmeric

I was in Costco today. They had a ton of turmeric products on offer, bursting off the shelves in the pharmacy/supplements section. I don’t know if this is a recent development, or maybe I noticed it for the first time because of the discussion here.

On the topic of topical analgesics, I noticed Costco offers Voltaren, about which I've heard good things. I also noticed they were nearly sold out, which suggests that Voltaren is a popular product.

Also, for those abstaining from oral Ibuprofen because it can cause digestive problems -- I know this from personal experience; just had an upper endoscopy that discovered serious esophagitis cause by taking too much Ibuprofen (Advil) -- there's such a thing as topical Ibuprofen creams and ointments. They're hard to find, I think. A few years ago I ordered some from England through eBay. Here's some from Greece:
