I put 1/4 teaspoon in a glass with a bit of olive oil. I then grind black pepper into the mix, stir and add a bit of warm water. This I drink though I do have to add water and stir a few more times. I use olive oil because this is what we have though any liquid oil would work. The oil keeps the Tumeric from upsetting your stomach and the black pepper helps your body absorb the turmeric. I started this after reading here that it reduced inflammation.
We use turmeric very much in our cooking. For a family of 4 we will use at least 1tsp - 2 tsp of turmeric powder in daily cooking in variety of recipes.
You can take a 1/2 tsp - 1 tsp of turmeric powder daily without any issues.
I recommend you to buy food grade turmeric powder in your local indian grocery store and use. It is very much cheaper when compared to capsules in bottle.
200 gms of turmeric powder is only $2.99 here in Canada.
Good Health, Thanks
My daughter said that if you take it with oil it works even better. Pepper is said to increase turmeric benefits and It is good to take with turmeric olive oil because curcumin is fat-soluble. The oil helps turmeric dissolve in fat to make it into the intestine, where it is then absorbed into the bloodstream
