Read the editorial standards →Curcumin, a major component of turmeric, has been studied for knee osteoarthritis, fatty liver disease and high cholesterol, but the National Institutes of Health says there is not enough evidence to conclude that turmeric or curcumin is beneficial for any health purpose. Products vary in how much curcumin they actually contain, and combining it with piperine from black pepper is one way to improve absorption. Better absorption carries its own risk: the NIH warns that highly bioavailable formulations may harm the liver, and liver damage has been reported in people who took them. Check the label for both the dose and the formulation.7 … MTHFR gene variants are common: about 30 percent of people worldwide carry the C677T variant. But the current consensus, as one 2024 review puts it, is that "in the absence of elevated homocysteine levels, MTHFR variants alone are not a risk factor for any disease," and even two copies of a variant "only reduce enzyme production mildly." Genetic testing for the variants has little clinical use. If the concern is high homocysteine, the review suggests testing homocysteine directly. A positive MTHFR result on its own is not a reason to switch to methylated vitamins.8
