“I took Kurk for approximately 25 days.
Had some routine bloods taken and these showed I had elevated liver function (LFTs), indicating liver stress or/and damage. I also experienced debilitating fatigue, severe abdominal pain, and nausea so intense I couldn’t eat for three days—every attempt ended in vomiting.
Thankfully, my blood results gradually improved upon stopping the Kurk and my latest bloods 2 weeks later have shown improvement and I'm slowly feeling a little better.
I contacted the company to inform them of what had happened. I received a generic apology, along with a vague acknowledgment that curcumin *can* cause liver issues in some cases. I wasn’t offered a refund, so I asked if I could have one—given the product not only failed to help but clearly made me unwell I felt it was only fair. I said I could even send evidence in the form of my GP notes if necessary.
I was told I couldn’t receive a refund because more than 60 days had passed. Considering it takes several weeks for these kinds of adverse effects to present, it wouldn’t have been possible to notify them any sooner.
To make matters worse, they offered to send me a free bottle of the product that had harmed me—an offer that felt dismissive and frankly inappropriate.
I’m sharing this experience to make others aware: while curcumin is often seen as safe, it can have serious side effects for some people. Please consult your doctor and monitor your health closely if you decide to try it.”
Hi,
Thank you for your feedback.
We have conducted a full analysis in all of our channels and can't find any notification of this issue from you, or anyone else with any similar issue. Can you please contact us asap (talk@kurk.life) so we can understand more about your issue, refund you, and share with you the results of our latest clinical trial with a team of scientists that included blood work monitoring (including liver function), and the results showed healthy and encouraging outcomes across participants.
We are different to most companies in our industry in that we control all parts of our product - the research, development, pilots, production and even delivery - so we are genuinely interested in any adverse outcomes.
Although we have a strong team of doctors and research scientists, we always advise consulting your GP when starting any new supplement, especially if you're managing ongoing health concerns. Your doctor will have the best understanding of how new additions may interact with your system, and they all know about curcumin research.
We hope you are OK, and hope to hear from you soon.
Kind regards,
Trent Scanlen

“I had been taking Truth Origins Vitality for years ,but when they re-branded this to Kurk , I was sceptical. I did try this product but found it nowhere near as good as the original product . At present Im trying to source a suitable replacement to the Vitality product.”
“My problem is not with the product at this stage but the way in which the subscription works. I have purchased one to try, using the Apple Pay option. However when I try to login using the very email that is used it tells me that my email is not valid….. which is a problem if you want to change or cancel a subscription. I wouldn’t purchase anything from here unless you already have an account set up initially. I find this to be a bit underhanded, as I have never had this problem with subscription based sales like this before. And now in reading other reviews on here and other platforms, see that I am not the only one that has brought this issue up. I certainly hope the product is good, because this initial experience has already left me doubting on a repurchase. Also have tried contacting them and it says it’s out of working hours even though it was at 10am Monday. Thinking of cancelling card. Beware.”
“I took the product for 2 months without a result and was advised to increase the dosgae whihc still didn't have any effect. I am sre it works for some but I spent alot of money and it didn't reduce my inflammation”
Hi Alyson, We're sorry to hear that. We have full confidence in our products. We want and hope that it works for everybody, but the reality is that our genetics differ so each and every one of us react differently to the supplements we take. If you need any further advise or have questions, feel free to leave a message. Warm regards, David
“I have been taking the turmeric drops for three months now and have noticed no improvement. I understood that this would help with practically everything including joint pain and muscle stiffness. I am sorry to say this and recognise your good heart and intentions. It is an expensive supplement and I cannot afford to continue with it. Would you please cancel my subscription and send me confirmation that you have done this? Many thanks Jane Orton”
Hi Jane, Thank you for taking the time to write us with your feedback. We have full confidence in our products.

Hi Theresa, sorry to hear it is not working for you. Can you email us and give us the details at talk@kurk.life so we can locate your order and send you a refund.

Hi Theresa, Thank you for taking the time to write us with your feedback. Sometimes more chronic conditions benefit from a higher dose temporarily. Since you are taking Kurk for a certain health challenge, we suggest you double your dosage. Take 1ml in the morning and another 1ml in the night time. Then, when you feel some relief we suggest dropping back to the daily dose of 1ml for maintenance. You can also try taking Kurk with food as some people absorb supplements better that way. If none of these work for you, we offer a 60-day moneyback guarantee. Just reach out to our customer service team at talk@kurk.life so they can assist you.
“Sadly the turmeric did not live up to the hype as it produced zero noticeable change to my condition which some reviews suggested would not be the case. I tried 4 months worth which was a waste of time and money - at least for me.”
Hi Geoff, Sometimes more chronic conditions benefit from a higher dose temporarily. If you are taking Kurk for a certain health challenge, we suggest you double your dosage. Take 1ml in the morning and another 1ml in the night time. Most people find it beneficial, then, when you feel some relief we suggest dropping back to the daily dose of 1ml for maintenance. Everyone is different and so we cannot guarantee it will work for you but we can guarantee a refund if it doesn't. We offer a 60-day money back guarantee.
