I'm not against using it, but isn't technically using garlic, curcumine a sort of natural medication, more then a lifestyle change? They are both aryuvedic methods. Curcumine for sure.
There has been a surge in, for example, IBD in India recently [1], but by and large India did not have many of the inflammatory disease issue we had for decades. They had plenty of other diseases, but I wouldn’t be surprised if all the curcumin helped stave off certain inflammatory conditions.
