    Dear Dr, Sharma, I have Renaud’s Disease and osteoarthritis in my fingers. They are misshapen and swollen. There is no pain. Renaud’s bothers me when it is cold outside or when I am in shops or restaurant, due to air conditioning. I live in Florida. I read that curcmin would help but due to acid reflux, curcumin is difficult to take. I take no medicines other than acid reducer, 20 mg/day. I am a vegan for 2 years and otherwise in good health.

    I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
