Could This Pain Fix Kill You?!?
Dear Turapür Today Reader,
For years doctors have been telling us that short-term corticosteroid use is perfectly safe for joint pain and even allergies.
Just get a cortisol shot, and that balky knee will be good to go for months.
But as it turns out, your doc may have it all wrong about these common inflammation fighters…
You see, researchers recently discovered that taking corticosteroids can shoot your risks of broken bones, dangerous infections and even life-threatening blood clots through the roof!
Even worse, their effects can last for weeks after you stop taking them.
A recent study conducted by University of Michigan scientists analyzed the medical records of over 1.5 million American adults.
When they took a closer look, they found that folks who took short-term corticosteroids were more likely to be admitted to the hospital in the five to 90 days following steroid use.
In fact, In the 30 days following steroid use:
- You’re five times as likely to develop sepsis, an often deadly infection
- You’re three times as likely to develop blood clots
- You’re twice as likely to suffer from a broken bone.
Experts believe that minimizing steroid use by reducing doses or prescribing alternatives is the best way to keep folks safe from steroid-related medical problems.
Fortunately, there are other ways to combat inflammation without steroids.

This Food Could Be Growing Deadly Tumors
One natural solution is curcumin. In fact, some studies show that curcumin can fight inflammation as well as corticosteroids in certain conditions.
You can find curcumin through natural health stores. Just be sure to get the optimized type, so your body can better absorb it.
