Turmeric helps control blood sugar levels.  I'm not a scientist, but I am a diabetic and I can tell you my person experience has been an average of 20 points lower on my readings since I've been eating this daily.  I sprinkle some in my eggs every morning and even add it to tuna fish or sprinkle it on whatever meat I'm cooking.  I've been buying this brand of organic seasoning for years and have always found them to be very high quality.  I am on subscribe and save with this turmeric and I go thru almost two bottles a month.  BTW... If you want to try the blood sugar experiment, remember to also add black pepper, it helps your body absorb it better.  Research it.
