Also known as: curcumin supplement, turmeric and black pepper, curcumin, turmeric. Reduce inflammation powerfully with curcumin enhanced by piperine for 20x absorption Turmeric extract is one of the most extensively researched natural anti-inflammatory compounds available. The active ingredients, known as curcuminoids, have been studied for their effects on joint comfort, inflammatory conditions, digestive health and antioxidant support.This supplement provides 333mg of turmeric extract per capsule, standardised to 95% curcuminoids. This is a concentrated extract, not raw turmeric powder. Raw turmeric spice contains only about 3% curcuminoids by weight, so this extract delivers a significantly more potent dose than cooking with turmeric alone.Curcumin on its own is poorly absorbed. The body metabolises it rapidly and most passes through without reaching the bloodstream. Piperine, an extract from black pepper, is included at 7mg per capsule specifically to address this. Research shows piperine increases curcumin absorption by up to 2000%, making it one of the most effective absorption enhancers available. If you take any medications, be aware that piperine can also affect how the body processes certain drugs. Check with your healthcare practitioner if you are on prescription medication.At 3 capsules per day, this provides approximately 1000mg of curcuminoids alongside 21mg of piperine, which falls within the beneficial range used in clinical research for inflammatory joint conditions. Most people notice improvements in joint comfort and inflammatory markers within 4 to 8 weeks.

Directions for use:Take 3 capsules once per day with dinner.Curcumin is fat soluble, so taking it alongside a meal that contains dietary fat improves absorption beyond what piperine alone provides.If you prefer, you can split the dose: 1 capsule with breakfast and 2 capsules with dinner. Splitting the dose maintains more consistent levels throughout the day, which may be beneficial for ongoing inflammatory support.At 3 capsules per day, 90 capsules provides a 30 day supply. If you are taking turmeric for joint comfort or inflammation, allow 4 to 8 weeks of consistent use before assessing its effect. Stop taking turmeric 1 to 2 weeks before any planned surgery, as it may increase bleeding risk at beneficial doses.
