Item# 00407 |
Curcumin is impressing scientists around the world
with its remarkable multiple health benefits. Curcumin is a polyphenol
present in the spice turmeric and was first used by Indians over 3,000
years ago in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. Modern science has found
that curcumin has remarkable health benefits for nearly every organ
system in the body … including its ability to inhibit enzymes that help
produce inflammation in the body.
Studies have tied inflammation to overexpression
of a protein molecule called nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB). NF-kappaB
acts like a switch to turn on genes that produce the body’s inflammatory
responses. Because NF-kappaB’s expression increases in aging adults,
scientists have sought ways to modulate NF-kappaB and its effects in the
body.
Curcumin has been shown to exert powerful
inhibitory effects on NF-kappaB activation within the body. Curcumin
inhibits overexpression of NF-kappaB. In addition, curcumin inhibits the
metabolism of arachidonic acid, as well as activities of cyclooxygenase,
lipoxygenase, and cytokines (interleukins and tumor necrosis factor).
Other clinical trials suggest roles for curcumin
in helping maintain healthy bowel and joint functions. Curcumin can also
help maintain normal healthy platelet function,37-40 and have
immunomodulatory effects by inhibiting histamine release from mast
cells. Other studies show curcumin’s potential for supporting healthy
brain function and offering neuroprotection.
Curcumin may effectively support pancreatic islet
health. Curcumin’s multifaceted effects include protecting against
estrogen-mimicking chemicals, protecting against free radicals, and
promoting normal cell cycle growth.
The problem is that curcumin is poorly absorbed
into the bloodstream. Super Bio-Curcumin® absorbs up to
seven times better than conventional curcumin. So this patented formula
represents the most cost-effective way to supplement with this critical
nutrient. Studies show that one 400 mg capsule a day of this turmeric
compound can provide curcumin blood levels equal to ingesting
2,500–2,800 mg of commercial curcumin supplements. And not only does
this turmeric formulation provide far greater peak blood levels, but the
curcumin remains in the bloodstream almost twice as long as conventional
supplements. And this enhanced absorption delivery complex provides
other beneficial turmeric compounds in addition to standardized curcumin.
Each 400 mg capsule of Super Bio-Curcumin® is
equivalent to 2,772 mg of a typical 95% curcumin extract.
