Best Curcumin with Bioperine (500 mg) (120 capsules)

---

Ingredients & Description

Best Curcumin with Bioperine contains a standardized extract of Curcuma longa root, commonly known as "Turmeric". Turmeric is named in ancient Ayurvedic and Chinese herbal texts as a traditional folk remedy. Historically, turmeric was used externally for wounds, and sprains, and internally for digestive health, joint support, enhancement of liver health, and immune wellness. Turmeric is a highly valued herb in cultures and cuisines throughout the world. The active ingredients in Curcuma longa are a group of plant substances called curcuminoids. Collectively known as "curcumin", they have demonstrated potent antioxidant properties in scientific studies.* Curcuminoids benefit joints and other tissues by helping to neutralize free-radicals.*

The numerous beneficial effects attributed to turmeric stem in large measure from the antioxidant properties of curcumin. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals, which are highly unstable molecules that can damage cellular structures through abnormal oxidative reactions. Curcumin is a potent "scavenger" of the superoxide radical, a free radical that initiates potentially harmful oxidative processes such as lipid peroxidation. Through this activity, curcumin has been shown to protect skin cells from the injurious effect of nitroblue tetrazolium, a toxin that generates superoxide radicals. Curcumin also increases survival of cells exposed in vitro to the enzyme hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase, which stimulates superoxide and hydrogen peroxide production. Curcumin is not toxic to cells, even at high concentrations. "Pure" curcumin has been shown to be less protective that a mixture of curcuminoids, indicating a possible synergism among the curcuminoids. Because free radicals are involved in aging and exert harmful effects on skin, these results suggest curcumin may help slow skin aging.

Several articles and studies have mentioned the health benefits of Curcumin, for example:

ScienceDaily (July 14, 2005) HOUSTON - Curcumin, the pungent yellow spice found in both turmeric and curry powders, blocks a key biological pathway needed for development of melanoma and other cancers, say researchers from The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center
