Curcumin is the yellow plant pigment of the turmeric root (Curcuma longa) and belongs to the curcuminoids. Our product combines extract and organic powder.

Why is black pepper (piperine) included?

Piperine from black pepper is known to improve the absorption of curcumin. This is a property of the combination, not a health claim.

Why do you make no claims about joints or inflammation?

There are currently no authorised health claims for turmeric/curcumin in the EU. We adhere to this strictly and deliberately refrain from making such claims.

Why take it with a meal containing fat?

Curcumin is fat-soluble and is better absorbed together with some dietary fat.

Is the product vegan?

Yes. The capsule shell is made of plant-based cellulose; it contains no animal-derived ingredients.

Ingredients & classification

It contains Curcuma longa extract (standardised to curcuminoids), Curcuma longa powder from certified organic cultivation and black pepper extract (piperine). Piperine is known to improve the absorption of curcumin. There are currently no authorised health claims for turmeric/curcumin and piperine in the EU; we therefore describe the product by its composition and make no effect claims (see "Sources").
