Hi everyone. I have been reading about the possible benefits of gargling with curcumin/turmeric to help prevent mucositis during my treatment. My consultant says it’s ok to try if I want to. Has anyone else tried this?

I didn’t but I’d be interested in how you get on so do let us know.
I can’t stand the taste of it …never could.

Hi Lizzie, i have had heard Tumeric has good health benefits and can be taken as a supplement, its a bit like garlic can help with toothache so it would not surprise me if using curcumin/turmeric could help with mucus, lets hope it does work for you as we all know the struggles with mucus. Good luck,take care.
