Overview
What Is Curcumin Elite Turmeric Extract?
Turmeric is a centuries-old Ayurvedic spice. The plant’s benefits come from the special active compounds in turmeric root called curcuminoids. But these curcuminoids quickly become less effective during digestion, limiting the good they can do. Our proprietary Curcumin Elite™ formula preserves curcuminoids’ bioavailability—so you get the maximum possible benefit!
Curcumin Elite™ Turmeric Extract Benefits
- Promotes healthy inflammatory response, cardiovascular health, brain health, and immune response
- Delivers 45x more bioavailable free curcuminoids and 270 times better absorption of total curcuminoids*
- Better together: take with Pro Resolving Mediators for maximum health benefits
*Than unformulated curcumin
Product Details
Curcuminoids are the compounds in turmeric that help inhibit inflammation to support joint and vital organ health, promote healthy immune response, encourage heart health and provide potent cellular protection against free radicals. But the total amount of free curcuminoids delivered by standard curcumin is low.
More
We have spent years searching for a superior, highly bioavailable form of curcumin, one that delivers maximum health benefits so you can thrive. To do this, we needed to find a technology that protected curcuminoids during digestion and delivered more free curcuminoids per dose.
Fenugreek helps inhibit conjugation
Once in the body, curcuminoid compounds undergo conjugation, a normal chemical reaction where one compound attaches to another. This is problematic because conjugated curcuminoids do not necessarily provide the same health benefits as non-conjugated ones.
Curcumin Elite™ Turmeric Extract protects curcuminoids from conjugation by combining curcumin with galactomannans, a type of fiber derived from fenugreek seeds. Clinical and pre-clinical data shows that doing so produces 45.5 times more bioavailability and broader tissue distribution of free curcuminoids than unformulated curcumin.
In a clinical study, more than 70% of total plasma curcuminoids were still in their free form five hours after ingestion. That translates into more comprehensive whole-body health support from the curcumin supplement.
Health benefits of curcumin
- Inhibits inflammatory factors—Curcumin extract inhibits inflammatory factors to promote joint and vital organ health. Curcumin also inhibits the metabolism of arachidonic acid, as well as the activities of cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase and cytokines to promote a healthy inflammatory response.
- Brain & immune system health—Curcumin extract inhibits inflammatory factors in the body to promote immune system health. Curcumin can also benefit your mind: Studies suggest that curcumin supports healthy brain function and offers neuro-protective benefits.
- Digestive, joint & pancreatic health—Evidence suggests that curcumin helps promote healthy bowel function and joint health. Curcumin also supports healthy pancreatic function by encouraging pancreatic islet health.
- Cellular support against free radicals—Curcumin also provides cellular protection against free radicals. Curcumin also supports healthy cholesterol levels already within normal range, inhibits inflammation to promote cardiovascular health and more.
