Turmeric Extract 500mg

This pungent spice has been used in India for centuries. But until thirty years ago the rest of the world only regarded it as a spice: In the 1970’s, lab researchers found it contained anti-inflammatory compounds called ‘curcuminoids’ - the most important of these being ‘curcumin.’ Curcumin has rich stores of antioxidants which can help protect the body from attack by damaging free radicals. As a natural anti-inflammatory, turmeric is also useful for joint problems (such as aching, swelling and stiffness).

Antioxidants are powerful preservatives, which helps explain why turmeric has long been sprinkled on food to help retain its freshness.

The properties found in Turmeric also help digestive complaints such as, excess gas (flatulence), bloating and mild stomach upsets. It may also help fight the bacteria commonly responsible for infectious diarrhoea.

Each of our capsules provides 500mg Turmeric Extract which provides 475mg curcuminoids
