Guest guest Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 I use high doses of curcumin (turmeric) on both myself and my son (a product called Enhansa for him). I also cook with both turmeric and cilantro. I do not eat a salad made entirely of cilantro, but I do add 1/2 c chopped cilantro to soups and stews, for example. I see no problem with it; for us.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Cilantro is not advised with mercur toxic people, it can move the metals around.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Not sure about that one. I just know there was a lot of discussion around cilantro here on the list.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 I know that Enhansa increases Glutathione levels and the Lee Silsby site says it chelates Lead and Cadmium. I wonder if the increased glutathione helps the body detox on its own? Karla > > Not sure about that one.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 So curcumin helps boost glutathione but does not directly chelate metals. That makes sense. I was not under the impression that cooking with reasonable amounts of cilantro was a problem for most people, toxic or not. Juicing bunches and bunches might be another thing.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Wish the ehnasa page would have listed links to the studies showing that it chelated lead and cadmium. However, I did find a study that was looking into wether curcumin chelates iron. I'll post that in the files section. I asked the question about cilantro and coriander a few months ago. Most said not to use cilantro, but I didnt get a real clear response on the coriander. I figure since they both come from the same plant, I'll avoid both, just to be on the safe side.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Coriander is dried ground cilantro. Same as, ditto, equal.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Actually ground corriander is the seeds of the coriander plant. Cilantro the leaves.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Correct, and it is the plant that has the chelating agents. Too bad I will have to reduce my intake....mexican food without cilantro??

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 I know, it stinks! I figure I'll stay on the safe side and skip the seeds too. Luckily I found a good replacement for coriander in my curries. Karla > > > > > Wish the ehnasa page would have listed links to the studies showing > > > that it chelated lead and cadmium.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Do you mind sharing what you use instead? My boy can;t have onions/garlic family so trying to give him diff spices. He quite enjoyed the curcumin. Thanks! Kareen > > > > > > > Wish the ehnasa page would have listed links to the studies showing > > > > that it chelated lead and cadmium.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 I use a combination of sage and lemon or orange zest as a coriander sub. For tumeric, try ground mustard and a pinch of saffron.
