I cook with it now and then, 1-2 times monthly when I cook Indian cuisine, usually yellow split pea dal, but to work it has to be taken daily as a supplement and I am way too cheap to buy the capsules at the health food store. I'm buying one of the cheap bulk bags I've seen at the Oceanic Market downtown and try different things, like a teaspoon stirred into fruit juice, kombucha, etc daily. So cool to see empirical science confirming what Indian and Ayurvedic medicine has claimed for MANY centuries. John
