Description
Turmeric is the go-to supplement in most people’s medicine cabinets to help them maintain a healthy, active life. Curcumins, the active components in Turmeric, helps reduce occasional inflammation due to normal daily wear and tear.
Turmeric extracts have shown considerable pharmacological activity, but the exact modes of its actions are not yet fully understood. Most researchers agree that the basic mechanism of action within Turmeric is its potent antioxidant action. Curcuminoids seem to scavenge for damaging particles in the body known as "free-radicals".
One study found that combining Turmeric and Black Pepper increased the bioavailability of Turmeric by 154% versus Turmeric alone. Piperine appears to support the inter-cellular permeability and uptake of Curcumins. This active component works by supporting gastrointestinal transit, which promotes absorption. According to research, Curcumins' bioavailability is supported when combined with additional polyphenols and herbs. This is why Gaia Herbs includes Black Pepper in most formulations that contain Turmeric.
Each 1-capsule serving delivers 36 mg curcumins.
