Product Description
Super Bio-Curcumin® 400 mg 60 vegetarian capsules Item Catalog Number: 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 body13-18 ... including its ability to inhibit enzymes that help produce inflammation in the body.19 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. Other clinical trials suggest roles for curcumin in helping maintain healthy bowel and joint functions.28-36 Curcumin can also help maintain normal healthy platelet function,37-40 and have immunomodulatory effects by inhibiting histamine release from mast cells.41-43 Other studies show curcumin's potential for supporting healthy brain function and offering neuroprotection.44-53 Each 400 mg capsule of Super Bio-Curcumin® is equivalent to 2,772 mg of a typical 95% curcumin extract.
