I was diagnosed one year ago with SMM. I’ve read a lot about the potential benefits of curcumin to reduce M protein (M spike). We are monitoring and given that my blood work is checked every three months, I figured I can perform my own experiment with curcumin. In June, after taking 2 grams per day of curcumin for three months, my M spike dropped from 2.3 to 2.0. Causation is so tricky to determine, this could be random. I recheck in September. Has anyone else experimented with Curcumin? I also noticed, as a side benefit, I have less normal aches and pains.
