Why stories fall short
Is a tingling story evidence about the capsule?
No. A tingling story is one person's account, and tingling has many possible causes.
| A story can | A story cannot |
|---|---|
| Describe one person's week | Show the capsule caused a change |
| Prompt a question for a clinician | Rule out a cause such as diabetes, B12 shortage, alcohol or a medicine |
| Point you to the label | Speak for anyone else |
Mayo Clinic lists those causes and says to seek care for new tingling, weakness or pain in the hands or feet (Mayo Clinic, Peripheral neuropathy). Trials add a placebo group for a reason: in a 16-week trial of 97 people with diabetic neuropathy, 40 mg of nanocurcumin twice a day did not differ from placebo (Mansour 2025, nanocurcumin neuropathy trial).
