Research shows that curcumin is the active ingredient in turmeric with powerful anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging properties that improve heart, brain, nervous system, immune system, and lung health, among other biological processes [1-13, 29].
Bioperine dramatically boosts the body's absorption of turmeric and this mineral supports enhanced heart, brain, lung, joint, and muscle health [21-28].
Anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging properties [1-13, 29]; Supports overall health [4]
Turmeric consists of curcuminoids such as the main one called curcumin, which helps reduce the risk of having a heart attack by improving the circulatory system's ability to regulate blood clotting and blood pressure [1]. Curcuminoids can also cross the blood-brain barrier, where they protect brain cells from oxidative damage, inflammation, and protein buildup that is associated with age-related cognitive problems [2, 3]. The majority of these benefits are due to the curcumin component of turmeric, which has potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that help disrupt various stages of inflammation [4-6]. More specifically, curcumin hinders the activity of inflammatory proteins that can travel into the body's cells and activate genes that trigger inflammation [7, 8].
Furthermore, curcumin's anti-inflammatory properties are so strong that it dramatically improves processes in the body that are linked to cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, metabolic, neoplastic, autoimmune, and pulmonary health issues [9-13]. In addition, curcumin has the capacity to target free radicals (toxins) and it also enhances the activity of antioxidant enzymes the body naturally produces [14-18]. Additionally, curcumin demonstrates anti-cancer properties through its capacity to hinder the growth, development, and (spread) of cancer cells [19, 20].
Although the body readily absorbs curcumin, according to research, combining it with Bioperine improves its absorption by approximately 2000% [21]. Bioperine, also known as piperine, is a black pepper extract that dramatically enhances the body's absorption of other nutrients [22]. This potent mineral also targets joint and muscle discomfort as well as heart, brain, and lung issues bronchitis [23-28]. Chronic low-grade inflammation is linked to premature aging, and it is proposed that curcumin disrupts the activity of NF-kappaB-dependent inflammation as well as mTOR signaling pathways, thereby slowing down the aging process [29].
