Curcumin is the active compound in turmeric, a bright yellow, ancient spice and a traditional remedy that has been used for health, as well as for condiment and flavoring purposes, based on records dating back to more than 2000 years. Turmeric has a long history of use in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic systems of health. Genceutic Naturals Curcumin has 19 times the curcumin content of the ground turmeric spice.

The herbal compound curcumin, may help to relieve common, everyday inflammation triggered by a host of lifestyle factors. This property is due, at least in part, to its mechanism of action as a natural COX-2 inhibitor (COX-2 is an inflammatory enzyme). Furthermore, curcumin has well-established properties as an antioxidant protector against free radicals. In fact, its antioxidant properties are as strong as vitamin C and vitamin E. Research suggests that these two important properties in curcumin may help support healthy immune function, healthy brain function, healthy cell growth and cell division, healthy liver function, and healthy cholesterol levels already within a normal range.*

The limiting factor with curcumin is its poor bioavailability - with 40% to 75% of curcumin passing through the digestive tract unchanged in animal research. For this reason, Genceutic Naturals Curcumin contains a special curcumin extract called Curcu-Gel BCM-95. In research, the bioavailability of curcumin from Curcu-Gel BCM-95 was found to be 8.2 times higher compared to normal curcumin.*
