The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin.
Curcumin is a natural painkiller and cox-2 inhibitor. One study compared curcumin to ibuprofen for pain relief in knee osteoarthritis patients and found that the curcumin worked just as well as ibuprofen. Several studies have found that curcumin has potent anti-inflammatory properties. According to the Arthritis Foundation, several studies have found turmeric to be effective at reducing joint inflammation and pain, with one of the studies even finding curcumin to be better at reducing pain and swelling in patients with rheumatoid arthritis than diclofenac, an NSAID that is commonly prescribed for people with RA. 20 Health Benefits of Turmeric | Eat This!

Suffering in this lifetime leads to an eternal lifetime with no tears or suffering 
I am trying to find the rating for it... USA:TV-MA. Ha! That puts it on a par with Game of Thrones, which is pretty out there as far as content is concerned. Yet the sunset movie is only cited for language issues It really only has those two actors in it, talking about what is "true and important in life."

It really only has those two actors in it, talking about what is "true and important in life." My daughter was about your age in 1999 when the Johnny Depp movie "Sleepy Hollow" came out... it is restricted, probably mostly due to frequent and gory albeit stylized violence. I remember her telling me about the scene where somebody gets their head cut off, and she was so... casual about it, I told her she was desensitized to the violence, and she protested saying it wasn't that bad at all. LOL. Raher proved my point, I thought I was not watching much of Hollywood in those days. In 2005 when I turned fifty I bought a 42" flat screen high def Sony Wega after living tv free for seventeen years. After that I started watching mostly rented DVD movies and television series with my daughter for the first three years or so before getting cable with multiple movie channel packages. Three more years of that and I was ready to go TV free again SO I have been without telly again for the last four years, but watch stuff with my daughter, and some things on my computer at home Many years ago we watched a lot of anime. She taught herself how to read write and speak Japanese as a result of her love of manga

What prompted you to start studying the language? How far in are you? I eventually convinced my daughter to go to school to study it, she was a few years out of high school by then and floundering a bit in life, not working and not really knowing what to do but having this huge passion for their language and culture, so she finally caved to my urgings and took a year of Japanese at college and aced the course, I was so proud of her! Though she always wondered what she could do professionally with the language if anything, and that was a deterrent to her, so she only did that one year Shortly after that she volunteered for three years at a cat sanctuary where they housed almost a thousand cats; she looked after the feline aids and leukemia cats, and that probably really helped her get a job as a vet assistant where she has been working for the last two years and some She finds the work very challenging partially because she is such a wisp of a young woman and she is having to deal with some pretty large dogs at times, but it is what she has really always wanted to do Do you have plan to use Japanese professionally?

Well, actually I was at camp one year and a Councelor was teaching to write some characters for an activity we were doing and I really enjoyed it, so I went to her and asked if she could teach me more during break and her eyes lit up and she was like "You really want to learn more?" And I smiled and nodded and so she taught me during break. I kept the notes we did and studied them that year. She came back the next year to see if I was okay and she gave me her email if I ever needed her, so I emailed her when a problem arouse and I needed someone to talk to, and eventually the chat got to when she was going to Japan, so I once again asked if she could continue teaching me, she said of course and sent me a letter of a bunch of hiragana worksheets and it just continued from there.
I am not very far because there have been times where teaching was interupted by her trips and Japan and well, when you teach by mail it goes pretty slow lol.
I am fluent in introductions
(Good morning, good afternoon, goodnight, how are you?, goodbye, I am well, what's your name, my name is ___) stuff like that and i have the hiragana alphabet memorized and can spell out words in hiragana and read words in hiragana
