It all started with terrible lower back pain. You see I have been following the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol since 2012. After a year on strict AIP, I felt ready to start the reintroductions (yes, 1 year – I am a slow healer). Coffee was one of the first reintroductions I made, and it was successful. As long as I kept my consumption of coffee low, say a maximum of one cup per week, I was fine. But then I slowly started drinking more and more of it without even noticing. It just kind of happened.
And that’s when symptoms started creeping back in. I tried to ignore them at first (ahem, like that’s ever been a sound healing practice!). It was mostly mild joint pain and itchy, watery eyes. Then I started to suffer from persistent and severe lower back pain that was shooting down my legs. Long story short, one day, I ended up completely stuck because the lower back pain was so severe. Not good!
I went to see my chiropractor, but that didn’t bring me instant relief of course. That first night, I barely slept because of the pain. I gave in and took ibuprofen. Now, this is big for me because I never take painkillers. I know they are not good for me, especially with an autoimmune disease. NSAID medications are a well-known trigger for damaging the gut. And the whole point of the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol is to repair the gut! So you see, taking pain medication isn’t a good idea. I searched for a natural way to reduce inflammation, and thus pain. Turmeric was the answer. It is especially recommended for joint pain as it can help to quickly reduce the pain.
Turmeric is a powerful antioxidant, potent anti-inflammatory, and an osteoarthritis pain reliever. This orange-colored spice, related to the ginger family, has been used for centuries by Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine to clear infections and inflammations on the inside and outside of the body. It is a powerful root with numerous health benefits. Try to include it in your diet as much as you can!
You can find it in its natural form, as a root, or ground. Both are easy to source in health food stores like Wholefoods and Vitamin Cottage. I used ground turmeric for this recipe, here
Anti-inflammatory
Healing
Turmeric Gummies
Final Notes: these gummies are not meant to be a dessert, but rather a healing food. Before adding the gelatin powder, check the liquid and adjust the amount of honey to your taste. I personally like them with only 3 tablespoons of honey, but the taste of turmeric is still present, although quite palatable. You will be the judge of what is best for you!
Also, some turmeric powder may accumulate at the bottom of the gummies and form a thin layer. I don’t mind it, but if you prefer you can cut that out before eating the gummies.
* * * * *
- 2 cups water
- 1/2 tablespoon ground turmeric
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional - see note below)
- 4 tablespoons unflavored gelatin powder
- I use a 9" x 6" ( or 2 quarts) Pyrex dish
for this recipe.
- In a saucepan, combine water, turmeric, honey, and coconut oil. Heat on medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Check sweetness and adjust to taste.
- Remove from the heat and sprinkle gelatin powder over warm liquid.
- Whisk vigorously for about 1 minute, ensuring gelatin powder is completely dissolved.
- Pour into a dish and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until gelatin is firm and you can cut it into small portions with a knife.
- Store in an airtight container. Will keep up to 7 days in the refrigerator.
This recipe for Anti-inflammatory and Healing Turmeric Gummies has been shared on Paleo AIP Recipe Roundtable
I can’t wait to try this. They look really good and if it assists in reducing my pain and inflammation I will be so happy. Once you cut them into small pieces how many would you eat in one serving or how many per day?
Thank you for all you do, I learn so much from your site!!
Hello Stephanie,
I cut them into 1″ x 2″ little rectangles and eat about 4 of them per day. There isn’t really a limit; turmeric is really good for you. The more you eat it, the better! I think that the most important is to keep taking turmeric on a regular basis, instead of a huge dose one day. As with all natural remedies, the secret is in the consistency. Good luck!
Excellent, Thank you! Have a great day.
Like you mentioned, turmeric is difficult for the body to digest. The coconut helps, and so does black pepper. Also ginger is another good natural anti inflammatory, and is good for the gut too. As soon as I get a space to cook, I’m going to experiment with this. Although I’m thinking of just taking a basic golden milk recipe (coconut milk, ginger, turmeric, black peppercorns, honey, and maybe coconut oil) and adding the gelatin. I make golden milk all the time. I don’t use turmeric powder, I get the turmeric rhizomes at the Asian market. I simmer the ginger, turmeric, and peppercorns in the coconut milk for a few minutes, then strain it, and add the honey. I try to drink it every night. I’d imagine you could add the gelatin at the same time as the honey.
Hi Sophie, This recipe looks great. I have connective tissue disease. Do you think this will help and do you have any other suggestions? I am currently taking hydroxychloroquine and would love to get off of it as it is bad for your eyes. Thank you,
Lisa
When you say unflavored gelatin, will Great Lakes work? If so, I have all the ingredients at home and will make this tonight!!!
Yes, it is the beef gelatin from Great Lakes, red can. Good luck!
Can you recommend another ingredient then gelatin, as I do not eat any animal products. This recipe would be great form me. Thanks.
I believe that some people replace gelatin with agar agar. Substitute 1 tablespoon of gelatin for 1 tablespoon of agar powder.Good luck!
Irish seamoss is a great vegan alternative too.
Thank you for the info Barbara 🙂
I was thinking of trying Vege-gel (I think Dr. Oetker makes it)
Everything I’ve read about turmeric says you need to mix it with black pepper – the piperine in it increases the bioavailability of the curcumin by over 2000%. What’s your opinion on this?
Hello Kathi,
You are right, black pepper enhances the absorption of turmeric. So does fat, because turmeric is fat soluble! So, since black pepper is not AIP, I use coconut oil in this recipe to make sure we get all the good stuff 🙂
So does that mean cayenne pepper isn’t AIP because it’s also pepper? Just wondering cause I’m learning, thanks
Yes, that’s right. Cayenne pepper, and all other peppers, are not AIP.
I would like to add that cayenne pepper is a nightshade, while black pepper is not. Black pepper is from a seed. One might be able to tolerate black pepper, is she can tolerate seeds, but not any of the red peppers, which are from nightshade vegetables.
Black pepper is a potent irritant of the GI mucosa. It increases bioavailability of any drug but at what cost?
I agree and the coconut oil helps break through the barrier!
Also, add the honey after the high heat to keep all the beneficial stuff!❤️
I’ve had the same kind of pain. I believe turmeric can help. Did turmeric help your pain? I’ also went to a chiropractor but it didn’t really help much. I’ve been taking pain meds. I want to find a natural pain reliever.. I have noticed that my stomach is not feeling real good lately. I’ve added turmeric to a lemonade drink I make with stevia. Do you think my body can absorb it that way? I’ve always tried to keep away from any kind of medicine .
Teresa
Hello Teresa,
Turmeric is a potent anti-inflammatory and yes, it will definitely help to reduce your pain. Not as fast as a couple of Advil, but it will. Make sure you get a dose every day. The best way to consume turmeric is mixed with some kind of fat. This is because turmeric is fat soluble. In this recipe, there is a little bit of coconut oil to help absorb turmeric better. Good luck!
I just made this! I love how it tastes, but I had a thin, lighter layer forming on top of it instead of the bottom. Doesn’t taste bad at all, but doesn’t look so neat. Seems like the coconut oil separated while refrigerating. Even the consistency seems to be from the coconut oil. Any thoughts? 🙂
Hello Bruna,
I am so glad that you like these 🙂 Indeed, using coconut oil may create a thin layer on top. After seeing your comment, I added a note in the recipe to warn people about this. Coconut oil is optional and used to enhance the absorption of the turmeric. You can skip the coconut oil if you prefer your gummies like shown in the picture 🙂
Add the coconut oil and fresh ground pepper and honey after high heat I believe it will be better absorbed!
I added a bit of juice to it, and kept stirring really well, then kept stirring as I put it in molds. Mine did not separate bad. They looked nice. There’s a lil tiny bit of separation that I think is the oil, but not bad and I was happily surprised to see the turmeric disnt separate hardly at all. I just kept stirring. And I think since I put them in molds, it made a difference too. They were nearly jellied before I put in fridge. And I LOVE them!! Tastes like turmeric tea. I think you could do lemon juice if you’d want.
Hi –
I was just looking at the Yes – No food list.
Why no ashwagandha??
I don’t know if I can live without that … it gives me such a feeling of well-being. No mood swings …
??
Just curious …
Hello Brenda,
Ashwagandha is part of the nightshade family, and as such is considered a potential trigger for certain people. That is why it is on the no list. That being said, you know that the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol is a template. Everyone is different and everyone reacts differently to different foods. It might be that Ashwagandha works well for you. Unless you notice some reactions, I would not advise you to remove it from your diet, especially when you tell me that it has such beneficial effects for you. Good luck!
I am dealing with pain every day, it is so frustrating. I am going to try these gummies and see if they help at all, I am very excited to try them. Thank You.,
Could you use something other than honey?
Helo Amanda,
Yes, you can use maple syrup instead of honey. Good luck!
If you skip the coconut oil would you add black pepper? And if so, how much?
Hello Debra,
If you skip the coconut oil, you can indeed add a pinch of black pepper to maximize the bioavailability of turmeric. Just a pinch is enough. Please keep in mind that pepper is not AIP and might be a trigger for you. Use only if you know you will do well with pepper. Good luck!
Yummy! I need some of these gummies in my tummy!
I’ve read that turmeric isn’t good in large doses for people with gall bladder issues, as I have. Yet in smaller doses it should help. Would the 4 squares a day that up you suggest be too much if one has GBD? Thank you!
Hello Virginia,
I am not able to recommend a specific dosage of turmeric for your condition. I would suggest you ask this to your doctor 🙂 Good luck!
Hello, this recipe sounds amazing and perfect for my pain. I am following a ketogenic aip and can’t have honey, maple syrup, sugar. What’s your thoughts on using liquid stevia? Thanks
Hello Stephanie,
I know that liquid stevia is not strict AIP, but everyone is different and if this is working for you, I would do it 🙂
minor typo….You can find it in its natural form, as a root, or grounded (just ‘ground’)
Thanks 🙂
Thank you for a wonderful recipe. I just made these using homemade fresh ginger tea instead of water. It is AMAZING that way!
Hello meghan,
Thank you so much for your feedback! Did you also add ground turmeric, or did you just use turmeric tea?
I used ground turmeric and ginger tea! I also tried it with molasses instead of honey. All variations that I’ve tried are excellent. I also found that whizzing everything up in a blender before pouring it into the pan makes for a nice even texture.
Thank you for your feedback Meghan! Much appreciated 🙂
I have been taking tumeric in capsule form, 1 capsule a day to reduce inflammation, especially in my fingers. And I have been trying to add it to my diet as well, so I’m glad to have another recipe to try. Thanks!
Just wanted to add a word of caution: When I was in for my check-up in January, my doctor said that turmeric is recommended for osteo arthritis (3 capsules a day) and rheumatoid arthritis (2 capsules a day) – I know, it seems backwards, and she made that comment as well. Anyway, she also said that anyone taking blood thinners shouldn’t take turmeric because it thins the blood as well. If you’re on blood thinners, you should probably consult your doctor before adding turmeric.
Thank you for your feedback Jana, and the warning!
Thanks for sharing! Pinning this to try!
Such a smart recipe! I love making herbal tea based gelatin squares and make various versions using coconut milk and things like pumpkin, nut butters, etc, but I would have never thought of this. Such a great way to get some extra turmeric in one’s diet. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your positive feedback Sheeva 🙂
Is there anything I can use besides honey? I am on an AIP diet. Thank you!
Hello Michelle 🙂
You can replace honey with maple syrup. Good luck!
I have some fresh turmeric in the fridge and I’d like to try this, but was wondering if I need to increase the amount of turmeric. Probably a silly question, but I didn’t know if there was some special ratio to follow with fresh vs. ground like when using herbs. Thanks so much!
Hello Christi,
The rule of substitution for fresh versus fried herbs is as follow: As a general rule, when substituting fresh herbs in a recipe that calls for dry, use three times as many fresh. For example, you can swap 1 teaspoon of dried sage with 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh sage. I hope this helps 🙂 Good luck!
Thanks so much, Sophie! 🙂
Can fresh turmeric and ginger be used? I use it in golden milk every day, and prefer fresh to powdered.
Oh wait. The question was asked directly above mine. Im familiar with the ratios, i was more curious of texture (Im sure it will be slightly textured)
I accidentally bought the porcine geletin instead of beef geletin. Will that still benefit me?
Thanks!
Absolutely! It’s just that the taste will be different.
Can gummies be frozen?
I am not sure the texture will stay the same. I have never done it. If you do, please report back here to let us now 🙂
I have read numerous articles that says you have to put a pinch of black pepper in with the turmeric in order for it to work in your system.
Hello janet,
That is true! However pepper is not a food approved on the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol. You can achieve the same effect with coconut oil. Turmeric is fat soluble and you can enhance the absorption of turmeric by using it with some fat.
I think I did something wrong? I have a brighter yellow layer over the top and think maybe its the coconut oil? I would also like to know if the consistency is like JELLO or should it be firmer? Appreciate the recipe Thank You
Hello Louise,
You guessed right, the layer on top is the coconut oil. You can totally skip the coconut oil if you prefer your gummies like shown in the pictures! The consistency should be firmer than regular jello. Did you make sure to use the gelatin from the red can? The green can won’t gel like the red can, that’s why I am asking.
I’ve just made this, it’s extremely bitter (I think it’s the Turmeric). I did add extra honey but bitterness is still there! Is this normal?? Any tips?
Hello Claire!
If the turmeric is too much, instead of adding honey, I would lower the amount of turmeric to 1 teaspoon instead of 1 tablespoon. I hope this works for you 🙂
maybe a touh of GOOD salt, like the Redmond Real salt, or a non-knock-off Himalayan Pink with too much arsenic…
I’m going to try this with a fresh turmeric and honey syrup reduction and see what happens
Hello Jo,
That sounds delicious! Let me know how that goes 🙂
Would using Turmeric oil be effective in making these? If so, how many drops would you recommend to replace the ground Turmeric? Thanks!
Hello Rita,
I have never personally used turmeric oil, but I would imagine that it is similar to any other essential oil used for cooking. If so, I would use only a few drops to start with (maybe 3-4). You can always increase later! Good luck 🙂
i know there are things other than black pepper which vastly increase the uptake of the turmeric’s phytochemicals, it’s anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties etc.
While i DO have a sweet tooth – i would at the least put in a touch of black pepper for the 1,000 X increase in potency it is supposed to give you. i HATE (lol) to mix my sweets with savories or proteins – and cringe at the concept of a “sweet” with pepper, for crying out loud, but – a man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do…..
Hello Brad,
I think that it is a great idea to add a touch of black pepper to enhance the bio-availability of turmeric! However, if you are following the paleo autoimmune protocol, be aware that black pepper is excluded in the elimination phase. If you know that you do well with it, go ahead! But just a pinch 😉
Hi! I suffer from frequent tension headaches. Would tumeric (and therefore these gummies) help with those?
Hello Erin,
I find that when I have a headache, a good adjustment with my chiropractor works wonders!
I have type 2 diabetes, would these help me?
Will try to make this. Will it help to reduce skin inflammation?
Btw, I would suggest adding honey at the very end, off the heat, because as I know, heat kills the good properties of honey,
Hello Justina,
Turmeric reduces systemic inflammation throughout the body. So it should have a positive impact on skin issues as well. Thanks for the tip about the honey!
Might be better to add the honey after the mix has cooled below 118 degrees. See: http://www.thehealthyhomeeconomist.com/is-cooking-honey-unhealthy/
I made this with a complimentary flavored juice base insures of water and added some vanilla protein powder for an extra boost and it tasted wonderful.I’m not usually a turmeric fan in anything but curry dishes bit these are great! Thank you for posting!
Thank you for your positive feedback Lori!
I just purchased Great Lakes gelatin in the green can….(collagen hydrolysate)… Will this still work?
Thanks in advance!!!
Hello Kristen,
I am afraid not. The green can doesn’t “gel”.
i see here this is why.. i guess i will have to purchase the red can.
does tumeric leave your teeth yellow if eating it everyday?
Turmeric does not discolor your teeth, natural or crowns. I have been using turmeric for a couple years. No discoloration. Some people use a turmeric mix to whiten teeth. I have never tried that.
Hello Sophie
I also have Hashi’s and Hypo T.
Thanks for this recipe.
I was wondering why will it only keep for 7 days in the fridge?
I am in Canada and will be looking out for deals for the Red can Great Lakes (Green as well)
Thanks, Carol. P.
Hello Carol!
7 days in the refrigerator is a safe and conservative estimation. You might very well be able to keep them much longer in your refrigerator. Good luck!
I’ve made these a few time over the past month or so. We put them in little heart shaped molds, and my daughter loves them! A great way to eat some extra tumeric and geletin. Thanks (:
Hello Fiona,
Thank you for your feedback! So glad to learn that your little one is eating these. I bet they taste even better when they are shaped like a heart 🙂
I really wanted these to turn out for me. Next time I think I will leave the coconut oil out but they turned out like jello, not gummy. What did I do wrong? Thanks so much
Hello Kelly
It is hard to say for me what went wrong. If you followed the recipe to the letter, the gummies come out like a compact jello. I mean it is not jiggly; you can definitely cut it up with a knife. I hope this helps!
I made these a few days ago with twice as much turmeric and a twist of black pepper, divided into 24 big soft jellies, fantastic for my awful joints and taste wonderful for breakfast!
Thank you for your positive feedback Anni 🙂
These are delicious!!!!! Thank you so very much for sharing your recipe! I can’t tolerate any type of sugar so made these as a savory gelatin and I love the taste. What truely grabbed my attention was what you said about your bad low back pain and the correlation with drinking coffee. I naively didn’t associate drinking coffee, either decaf or full caff with my increased joint and crazy low back pain. Perhaps that is my culprit as well and so as of today, I’m not having either type of coffee and see how I feel after the first week. Here’s hoping it’s as easy as taking coffee out of my very restrictive food list to help me heal even more from leaky gut, food allergies, and lately, chronic low back/hip pain.
Thank you again, you’re kind to share your wisdom and experiences.
Dear Amanda,
Thank you for your feedback! Taking coffee and caffeine out of my diet has been really hard in fact! I have switched to herbal teas and enjoy anything with lavender at this moment! My joint pain has significantly decreased since going without coffee. Definitely worth a try. Good luck!
As a coffee lover with serious low back pain (disc issues), I’m both dismayed and intrigued by this thought. 🙂
Hello Dawn,
You might try to eliminate coffee for a week or two (I know, it is hard!!!) and see if you observe any improvement in your lower back pain.
I may have missed this in the comments, but is there a vegetarian replacement for gelatin for this recipe?
Hi there!
Some people replace the gelatin with agar agar. Substitute 1 tablespoon of gelatin for 1 tablespoon of agar powder.Good luck!
I would love to make this with fresh tumeric. Have any suggestions on how?
Thank you so much for this wonderful receipe.
Respect from India
Regards
Harsh
Is there a way to use pectin instead of jello? I have low sugar pectin from my freezer jam and was wondering if i could use that. Thank you.
I believe so, but not sure on the quantities. Look on the box of pectin how much powder you are supposed to use per cup of liquid. I would try that. Good luck!
How many of the Turmeric gummies can you eat per day?
I usually eat between 6 to 8 pieces per day. You can do more if you wish.
CAN THESE TURMERIC GUMMIES WORK FOR MY DOG? HE WAS HAVING ALOT OF JOINT PAIN IN THE WINTER.
Hi there!
I am not sure if it’s ok to give turmeric to dogs so I wouldn’t recommend it. Maybe someone here will know the answer 🙂
A homeopathic veterinarian I used to see recommended turmeric for my dogs for the same reason it is recommended for people – anti-inflammatory, etc.
Thanks for your article on Turmeric! You’re awesome! I have 2 reasons for trying it. Sciatica and Diabetes. Do you think these gummies will help me? I’d really appreciate your help!
This is a good recipe, but turmeric is activated by including black pepper. It won’t make it look good but pepper is an important ingredient to get the full potential of the turmeric properties.
Hello there,
It is true, black pepper is an activator for turmeric, but you can also enhance the absorption of turmeric with any type of oil (coconut oil in this recipe). Since black pepper is a “no food” on the elimination diet (Autoimmune Protocol), I chose coconut oil instead. I hope this helps!
Do these truly provide a NOTICEABLE difference in joint pain? Taking 4 per day, how long on average before a difference is noticed? These seem easier and quicker than tumeric milk!
Hi there,
I think the effects will vary from people to people. It is hard for me to say!
Just read this post, I have lower back problems and pain down my legs.. You mentioned coffee.. I like to drink a cup or so a day, but after reading this I’m wondering if this coffee could be a big trigger for me.. Did you cut coffee totally out again? Also, with the turmeric gummies made with gelatin, is it ok to take everyday without a break of not taking? I’ve read too my gelatin might not be good for you? Thank you SO much!
Anti-inflammatory and Healing Turmeric Gummies Idea is great! Looking forward for more! Cheers!
What is the shelve life of these. How do you store them?
Hello Renee,
You can store these in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 7 days.
Waow…I just made this. It turned out great
I added some cinnamon as well. I love it…
Next time I’m thinking to add some ground ginger as well
Awesome recipe
Thank u
Thank you for your positive feedback Niki 🙂 Great idea about the ginger!
Could one possible add some unflavored protein like Genepro in there and have it still be effechive?
Hello Holly,
I think that it would be totally okay to add protein powder and still benefit from the turmeric 🙂
You also need black pepper to better help absorption of the tumeric
Hello Mary,
Turmeric is also a fat soluble spice, so it is well absorbed by the body in the presence of oil, which is why I added some coconut oil to the recipe. Black pepper isn’t a spice allowed on the Autoimmune Protocol during the strict elimination phase.
I tried this recipe yesterday, I did use the coconut oil, and I used Great Lakes unflavored gelatin, had ordered it just for this recipe on amazon…and it never set. I forgot about it and it was in the refrigerator all night. I went to take it out this morning when I remembered, and it was liquid. The only thing that had hardened were lumps of coconut oil. What did I do wrong do you think?
Hi there,
Sorry to hear about your troubles. Most probably you didn’t use the right kind of gelatin powder. You need the red can, not the green one. The green one doesn’t set.
I made this and I did use coconut oil, I didn’t get the white layer, I got a bright yellow layer, I think the turmeric? But I don’t know why this happened.
As i cut it into squares my dog was begging, so I gave him one, then another, he thought it was candy and just loved it. But our other dog, nope, nor my husband…no accounting for taste!
I also put 2 squares in my morning smoothie, yum!
I am taking turmeric capsu.les. Just started , will this help?
I tried to make these over the weekend, they didnt ever soften to gummies – it stayed as a liquid.. even after i had it in the fridge all night. Any idea why? I used the green can of Great Lake Collagne Hydrosalat.
I would double check to make sure you used the correct amount of gelatin powder!
The green can doesn’t gel… You need the red can…
I have an allergy to honey. Do you think I could substitute maple syrup instead?
Yes Kat, you can replace honey with maple syrup.
Just whipped up a batch of these. I’m out of coconut oil, so I added in a few grinds of black pepper. I also threw cinnamon in to counter the pepper and round out the warm spice. Can’t wait for them to set!
I’ve used Turmeric in smoothies before and gotten yellow teeth. do these gummies give you a temporary yellow tint to you teeth?
I didn’t notice anything like that Annette.
Hi!
I made a batch of these a couple days ago, but the turmeric flavor is a bit too strong for me. I even added extra honey. Any ideas to combat this? I didn’t want to decrease the amount of turmeric because I want as much of the anti-inflammatory benefits as possible! Thanks!
Hello Elizabeth,
Try reducing the quantity of turmeric until you get used to the taste.
4 tablespoons of gelatin was not enough. It didn’t come out right. I wonder if I put it back in a pot, reheat and add more gelatin…will it ruin it?
Aimee,
Did you make sure to use the right gelatin powder? It is the Great Lakes red can. Reheat and add more gelatin? Sure, give it a try. Good luck 🙂
Made these today. Yummy thank you for the great recipe. Now to make sure I don’t eat them all in one go.
Great idea!! I want these really badly, actually. I have scoliosis and I’m always trying to find natural ways to combat my pain instead of just taking more ibuprofin. I included this recipe in my turmeric recipes round up post. Thank you!
Hopefully you can’t overdose on Tumeric because I’m addicted to these gummies. I try to make them last for a week, but I could literally eat the whole pan. I get so excited when I open the fridge and see them in there. Thanks for the recipe!
I just made my very first batch of these.
The liquid tasted pretry yummy so I trust these gummies will be awesome as well.
My dog was very interested in all the smells and I was wondering.. are they dog-friendly?
Hello Janine,
Just to be safe, I would ask your veterinarian to make sure that the ingredients in these gummies are safe for dogs!
I tried to make these but I used a silicone mold with a lid. Could that be the reason they didn’t gel? They were in the fridge overnight and still completely liquid. I may try again today and just use a dish as suggested.
Amy,
I don’t think your mold is the culprit! S
Did you make sure you used gelatin and not collagen peptides? – Sophie
How would you adapt this for fresh turmeric?
Hello Christine,
How about you put the water and fresh turmeric root (1/2-inch nob – peeled) in on high-speed blender and mix on high until blended? That would do it.
I used these daily for months … i ran into some financial issues and could not make tgemfor a long while and cannot wait to make these this weekend. I can tell a huge difference in my pain and inflammation since going with none. Thank you so much for sharing.
These look so good! Do you make any other kinds of healing gummies?
Thanks for sharing! Can I freeze them?
