I read Curcumin's entry in Wikipedia, and it seems like whoever is editing the wiki page has a strong bias against curcumin

In the 'Research' section, there is a paragraph like this:

"According to a 2017 review of more than 120 studies, curcumin has not been successful in any clinical trial, leading the authors to conclude that "curcumin is an unstable, reactive, non-bioavailable compound and, therefore, a highly improbable lead".

I'm pretty sure that there are lots of RCTs/Meta analysis of RCTs that show positive effects of curcumin supplementation (some of which are published 2017 onwards).

Didn’t hear about Google Medic until now. Is it solidified enough to already be seeing really bad search results?

I feel like the top search results have been written by an over the top addiction counseling specialist who took first year chemistry but dropped out so they didn’t bother to leave in the technical info because they never learned it.

It completely fucked everyone's site traffic overnight. Some sites lost 95% of their organic traffic almost from one day to the next. It devastated some sites. We were not as affected as some other sites, since we already heavily limited our wording and discussions on product pages for legal reasons, but we still lost 45% of our organic traffic overnight. It took almost a year to build back the traffic that was lost. We were also lucky in that over half our traffic was direct traffic, since we have a big direct following. Sites that almost exclusively relied on organic traffic were screwed. It's crazy that Google can make changes that can devastate sites like that.
