14th treatment shown to reduce risk in February 2021
 
*, now known with p = 0.000000046 from 26 studies.
No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine complementary and synergistic treatments. * >10% efficacy in meta analysis with ≥3 clinical studies.
4,100+ studies for 60+ treatments. c19early.org
RCT with 30 nanocurcumin and 30 control patients in Iran, showing lower mortality and improved recovery, without statistical significance, and improved NK cell function. 160mg nanocurcumin for 21 days.
This is the 15th of 20 COVID-19 RCTs for curcumin, which collectively show efficacy with p=0.0000093.
This is the 21st of 26 COVID-19 controlled studies for curcumin, which collectively show efficacy with p=0.000000046 (1 in 22 million).
