Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is the rhizome behind curry's colour, and curcumin is the compound doing most of the work in it. Raw turmeric root is only around 3% curcumin. Ours is a standardised extract at 95%.

Curcumin is also notoriously hard for the body to absorb on its own, which is why we include piperine, the active compound in black pepper, in every capsule. It is the same pairing that traditional cooking arrived at long before anyone measured it. Two capsules give you 1200 mg of extract daily, in vegan capsules. Made in Canada from imported ingredients.

  • 600 mg per capsule, 2 capsules per day (1200 mg daily)
  • Standardised to 95% curcumin
  • Includes piperine (black pepper extract) to support absorption
  • Certified organic turmeric root
  • Vegan capsules — no gelatin, fillers or GMOs. Made in Canada from imported ingredients
  • Third-party tested for purity and potency — COA on this page
  • Supply sizes from one to six months
  • NPN 80140969

Who it's for: people who want a high-strength standardised extract rather than culinary turmeric powder, and anyone comparing labels who wants to see the curcumin percentage stated.

How to use: Adults: 2 capsules daily with food. A meal containing some fat suits curcumin well.

Recommended use: Source of antioxidants for the maintenance of good health.

Great Ideas for Using This Product

Fruiting body vs Mycelium and Spores

There is a lot of discussion around which parts of the mushroom should be used for extraction. Here is a short explanation:
In mushrooms, the part that is typically used for extracting nutrients and compounds is the fruiting body, which is the visible part of the mushroom that emerges above ground. This is because the fruiting body contains most of the bioactive compounds, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other beneficial substances.

The fruiting body is rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds because it is where the reproductive structures of the mushroom develop. These structures contain various substances that the mushroom needs for growth and reproduction, as well as compounds that help defend against pathogens and predators.

However, it's worth noting that different parts of the mushroom may have different nutritional profiles and concentrations of bioactive compounds. For example, some mushrooms also produce mycelium, the underground network of fungal threads, which can also contain valuable nutrients and compounds. Additionally, certain species of mushrooms may have medicinal properties associated with specific parts of the organism, such as the mycelium or even the spores. Therefore, the specific part of the mushroom used for extraction can depend on the desired nutrients or compounds and the intended use.

We always use the fruiting body for our extracts but we are also working on developing special compound extracts from other parts like the mycelium and spores. Keep an eye on our blogs and subscribe to our newsletter to get notified of these advancements as they happen.

Extraction/Production Process

Botanical Information

Turmeric is botanically classified as Curcuma longa, a member of the Zingiberaceae (ginger) family, and is native to the tropical regions of Southeast Asia. This vibrant yellow-orange root, long prized in Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine, thrives in warm, humid climates where rich soil nurtures its potent curcumin content.

For Pets

While turmeric is used for human nutrition, some holistic veterinarians may recommend turmeric supplements for pets. However, always consult your veterinarian before giving turmeric or any new supplement to your pet, as dosage needs and safety can vary based on their size, health condition, and breed.

Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Curcumin in the Inflammatory Diseases: Status, Limitations and Countermeasures

Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, exhibits significant anti-inflammatory properties beneficial in managing diseases like inflammatory bowel disease, arthritis, psoriasis, depression, atherosclerosis, and COVID-19. However, its clinical application is limited due to poor bioavailability. Strategies such as combining curcumin with piperine or developing nano-formulations are being explored to enhance its therapeutic efficacy.

See the study here.

Curcumin: A Review of Its’ Effects on Human Health

Curcumin, the primary polyphenol in turmeric, offers numerous health benefits due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It aids in managing conditions like metabolic syndrome, arthritis, anxiety, and hyperlipidemia, and helps reduce exercise-induced inflammation, enhancing recovery and performance. However, curcumin alone has poor bioavailability, which can be significantly improved by combining it with agents like piperine, the active component in black pepper, increasing absorption by up to 2000%. Even at relatively low doses, curcumin can provide health benefits for individuals without diagnosed health conditions.

Curcumin on Human Health: A Comprehensive Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of 103 Randomized Controlled Trials

A comprehensive meta-analysis of 103 randomized controlled trials involving 7,216 participants evaluated curcumin's effects on various health outcomes. The study found high-certainty evidence that curcumin supplementation significantly improves fasting blood sugar, C-reactive protein levels, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and body weight. Moderate-certainty evidence indicated benefits for waist and hip circumference, body mass index, insulin levels, insulin resistance, leptin, gamma-glutamyl transferase, glutathione, and superoxide dismutase. The authors recommend well-designed, long-term trials with larger sample sizes to confirm these findings
