While the health benefits of curcumin, the active compound from the
Indian spice known as turmeric, have been well-documented, it is also
well-known that curcumin is not well-absorbed when taken orally (by
mouth). Different methods have been used to increase absorption,
including combining curcumin with lecithin or piperine (black pepper).
The best absorption has been achieved when micronized (very small
particles) curcumin is combined with turmeric oils and phospholipids.
This combination is up to 10 times better absorbed than standard
curcumin. Curcumin, a compound found in the spice turmeric, supports multiple
pathways in the body and is a potent antioxidant. Some of the benefits
associated with curcumin include immune system modulation, protection
from oxidative stress, and support for a healthy inflammation response.
The specialized extract in this formula has the highest absorption of
any curcumin extract available for maximum health benefits.
• Clinically studied
• BCM-95® provides superior bioavailability
• High antioxidant ORAC value > 1,000,000**
• Healthy inflammation response
A patent-protected method using micronized curcumin, turmeric essential oil, and phospholipids ensures that CuraMed®
delivers a curcumin that is up to 10 times better absorbed than
standard curcumin, as well as having an 8-12 hour retention time in the
body. This high-potency formula provides superior support for a healthy
inflammation response, a healthy immune and cardiovascular system, and
resistance to free radical activity. For more information: Curcumin The All In One Solution.pdfSUPPLEMENT FACTS

Q:
What about soy in this
product? Is that something I need to worry about?
A:
If a formula contains phospholipids, nattokinase and vitamin K2 which
are extracted from soy, we’ll list that on the label. But for peace of
mind, the chance of these healthy ingredients causing a risk of
allergies is extremely low or non-existent. They contain a possible soy
content in parts per million. However, for the safety and comfort of our
customers, we provide soy information. Q:
Why the two milligram
levels – 375 mg and 750 mg of CuraMed?
A:
Simply because everyone has different nutrient needs. For some, 375 mg
softgels provide the perfect amount of healthy support. Due to the
enhanced absorption of BCM-95® curcumin, one 375 mg softgel is
equivalent to 2,500 mg of curcumin 95%, the standard extract.
For others who require more intensive support of the body’s
anti-inflammatory abilities and cellular health, the 750 mg is the best
choice. Here again, the superior absorption of BCM-95® bioavailable
curcumin means that one softgel is equivalent to 5,000 mg of curcumin
95%. Q:
How is CuraMed®
different than Curamin®? Can we take them both together?
A:
CuraMed® provides bioavailable BCM-95® curcumin only, so it is a
single-ingredient product. Curamin® provides BCM-95 curcumin along with
BosPure® boswellia, D,L –phenylalanine (DLPA), and nattokinase as a
combination for occasional pain to exercise or overuse.* It is perfectly
fine to use them together according to your individual preferences. Q:
How does the BCM-95®
curcumin in CuraMed® compare to other curcumin and turmeric products?
A:
The proper product comparison is curcumin to curcumin. However, since
many companies are comparing their curcumin absorption to turmeric, we
provide this information as a service to our customers.
• Plain curcumin 95% compared to turmeric delivers 20 to 50
times the curcumin as the same amount of turmeric.
• BCM-95® Curcumin has been proven to deliver 8 to 10 times
more curcumin into the bloodstream as the same amount of
plain curcumin.
• Therefore, when compared gram per gram, BCM-95® Curcumin
delivers 8 to 10 times more curcumin than plain curcumin 95%
and 160 to 500 times more curcumin than that found in an
equal amount of turmeric.
