Douglas J. English, BVSc, Australian veterinarian who developed the now widely used "Golden Paste" recipe. Doug has been fascinated with the use of natural compounds throughout his 40-plus years of veterinary practice. In 2012, after several years of experimentation with turmeric in his veterinary clinic, Doug created the Turmeric User Group on Facebook, to gather anecdotal data on the use of turmeric and to advise on its use. Now numbering over 270,000 members worldwide, the group has gathered thousands of reports on the effective use of turmeric. In 2016, in response to member requests, Doug began to formulate turmeric products for both human and animal use. In addition to his role as CEO of Turmeric Life, Doug continues his veterinary practice and also serves on the ethics committee at QIMR Medical Research Institute in Brisbane, Australia.
