Bones & joints

Inflammation is a natural and important process that helps the body respond to injury and other challenges. However, it can become a major problem when it becomes chronic and inappropriately attacks your body’s own tissues. Curcumin acts to interfere and block inflammatory response pathways in the body, offering a protective effect and reducing painful inflammation.

Boswellia serrata has its own centuries-long history of use in Ayurvedic traditions. Modern research has focused particularly on compounds called boswellic acids and their potential relationship with inflammatory processes, joint health and comfort. Research also suggests that when combined, these singularly effective supplements prove more effective, offering synergistic benefits.

Brain

Research into curcumin suggests it may increase the brain hormone BDNF, which improves the function of neurons, encourages their growth and strengthens and protects them. Many common brain disorders have been linked to decreased levels of this hormone, including depression and Alzheimer’s disease. Some recent studies on turmeric show that curcumin can increase brain levels of BDNF and by doing so, may be effective in treating brain diseases and age-related decreases in brain function.

Heart & veins

Perhaps the main benefit of curcumin when it comes to heart disease is in studies suggesting it may improve the function of the endothelium, which is the lining of your blood vessels. It’s well known that endothelial dysfunction is a major driver of heart disease and involves an inability of your endothelium to regulate blood pressure, blood clotting and various other factors.

Digestion

Turmeric and ginger both have centuries-long histories of use in traditional approaches to digestive health. Now western medicine has started to study how turmeric can help with gut inflammation and gut permeability, two measures of your digestive efficiency. Turmeric is even being explored as a treatment for irritable bowel syndrome.

Ginger has a long tradition of being very effective in alleviating discomfort and pain in the stomach. It’s regarded as an excellent carminative, a substance that promotes the elimination of excessive gas from the digestive system, and soothes the intestinal tract.

Three complimentary plant extracts

Curcumin blocks inflammatory response pathways in the body, offering a protective effect and reducing painful inflammation. Boswellia is particularly helpful for joint health and comfort. Ginger, too, has anti-inflammatory effects and, for those suffering with joint and muscle pain, could prove to be effective. Research suggests that when combined, these singularly effective plant extracts prove more effective, offering synergistic benefits. Our team combined this trio to create what we believe to be a market leading formulation.

Natural ingredients

Our Curcuma Complex contains a patented turmeric extract with a high concentration of curcumin - the active ingredient in turmeric. Made of 100% natural ingredients and suitable for vegans.

Maximum absorption

We have added piperine, the active ingredient in black pepper, which, when combined with curcumin maximises its absorption and bioavailability. Research suggests that piperine enhances curcumin absorption in the body by up to 2,000%. It is a small addition that addresses one of curcumin’s biggest limitations—and makes piperine an important part of our Curcuma Complex.
