After posting I looked at the capsules I have, and they are 500 MG's, so I checked some more sites and came up with Dr. Weil's.
"How can you get more turmeric into your diet? One way is via turmeric tea. There are also extracts in tablet and capsule form available in health food stores; look for supercritical extracts in dosages of 400 to 600 mg, and take three times daily or as directed on the product.
There doesn't seem to be any agreement of the people who should know, so maybe you should seek advice from the medical Dr. that is familiar with your particular issue, and system.
