Contains 1,000mg of curcumin phytosomes per daily dose. The curcumin is linked to phosphatidylcholine (lecithin) from sunflower, which ensures excellent absorption in your body.
Curcumin Phytosome from Thorne contains 1 gram of curcumin phytosomes per daily dose. Curcumin is the most important active ingredient in turmeric. In this product, it is made liposomal by making a phytosome complex. In this, curcumin is linked to phosphatidylcholine (lecithin). The result of this is that the intestines absorb the curcumin much better. Scientific research shows that this liposomal curcumin, in the form of Meriva®, is absorbed 29x better than a standard curcumin extract. The product is also guaranteed free of soy. This is in contrast to many other liposomal curcumin products. Curcumin Phyotosome is also free of milk, gluten, preservatives and artificial fragrances and flavors. Thorne guarantees natural supplements based on scientific research.
Curcumin, main active ingredient of turmeric
Curcumin is the main active ingredient of turmeric root (Curcuma longa). Most people know turmeric from the kitchen. Here, the root is used as a spice. In the Netherlands, turmeric is also called yellow root or koenjit (originating from Indonesian). In addition to its culinary use, traditional Chinese medicine (often abbreviated to TCM) has used turmeric for centuries under the name Jiang Huang. The remedy also has its place in traditional Indian Ayurveda. The use of turmeric has now spread throughout the world.
It is difficult to get a lot of curcumin by simply eating turmeric. Moreover, we know from scientific research that when eating turmeric, curcumin is not always well absorbed in the intestines of the human body. Research also shows that part of the substance is deactivated in the liver. This is why special curcumin extracts are increasingly being used in supplements, such as this Liposomal Curcumin. These have been specially developed for their excellent absorption. Supplementing your diet with a high-quality and powerful curcumin supplement can therefore make all the difference.
About curcumin phytosomes in Curcumin Phytosome
However, even as an extract, curcumin is often only moderately absorbed by the human body. For curcumin, more research is therefore done on its absorbability than on its health benefits. By using a new extraction and absorption method, namely phytosome technology, the absorption problem has been solved. Scientific research shows that curcumin is absorbed much better when it is bound to phosphatidylcholine (lecithin). In this Curcumin Phytosome , curcumin is processed into a phytosome complex using special methods. The result is the Meriva® extract that is used in this Curcumin Phytosome .
Most phytosome products are made with phosphatidylcholine from soy. This product is completely soy-free and gets the choline from the sunflower. This makes it usable by almost everyone.
