What form of turmeric are you giving her? My daughter has 2 related inflammatory diseases and we've done cur curcumin before but she didn't love how she had to take it (as a powder in applesauce).Mine has had horrible wrist issues for about 5 months now. Have done all the medical stuff to ensure no major issues but just was not getting better very quickly. Even after taking a full 3 months off was still having issues. I finally put her on some tumeric for inflammation purposes as well as a joint complex (nothing fancy, just a generic) to help build up cartilage and it seems to be helping a lot! Been on both for about 2 1/2 weeks now and last week was her first full week of gym where she only had mild pain at the end of practices. Fish oil/krill oil would also do the trick for inflammation I'm told, but we are not fish eaters and there is no way I'd be able to get a 14 year old to take fish oil...even the ones that are burpless, etc.
Response to above on brand of turmeric....it is nothing fancy or hard to find...just store bought. It is Okinawa triple turmeric with the black pepper extract which apparently aids in absorption and helps it work.

My pediatrics docs are awesome take time to answer all my concerns especially about nutrition. The supplements that were recommend were by my pediatrician . Despite we try to feed ourselves and children healthy our soil in which are vegetables and fruits are harvested in are not the best, despite our best efforts we still miss some key nutrients . This is not to say we shouldn't eat our greens but supplements are just that supplements .Nothing here. It’s all I can do to remember keep my kids fed somewhat decently! I’ve tried a few myself but I can’t say I’ve ever been able to tell a difference so I don’t bother. I’m pretty natural-minded in what we eat.
I feel there’s a lot of (mis)information out there about what the latest and greatest is, and I don’t have time to dissect it to find the truth. Curious if everyone is getting their recommendations from doctors or just doing their own research? We almost never go to the doctor (only for illnesses that turn serious or injuries). I generally feel like they are rushed and aren’t really that interested in subtleties of diet or anything that isn’t the actual reason for the visit, and tend to over prescribe. Maybe you all have better doctors!
the synopsis of current research is that children with a first world diet do not need supplements ( assuming no underlying medical conditions), with the exception of vitamin D in the winter time, or all year round in northern latitudes for those with dark skin pigmentation.
