Curcumin (Curcuma longa) and Joint Inflammation A Systematic Review of Clinical Evidence
Journal of Medicinal Food, 2016
Curcumin 8000 delivers 400 mg of a 20:1 concentrated turmeric rhizome extract per capsule equivalent to 8,000 mg of raw turmeric rhizome standardized to 25% curcuminoids. Each capsule also includes 5 mg of piperine from a 50:1 black pepper fruit extract, included to support bioavailability. Traditionally used in Herbal Medicine as an anti-inflammatory to help relieve joint pain.
Curcumin is the primary bioactive polyphenol found in turmeric (Curcuma longa), the yellow pigmented rhizome widely used in Ayurvedic and traditional Asian medicine. Curcuminoids the collective term for curcumin and its related compounds are responsible for turmeric's characteristic color and its documented anti inflammatory properties. This formula is standardized to 25% curcuminoids to ensure consistent bioactive content in every capsule.
Each capsule contains 400 mg of a 20:1 turmeric rhizome extract, meaning 20 kg of raw turmeric rhizome is used to produce 1 kg of extract. This delivers the equivalent of 8,000 mg of whole turmeric rhizome per capsule a clinically meaningful dose of curcuminoids in a single vegetable capsule.
Each capsule includes 5 mg of piperine from a 50:1 black pepper fruit extract (Piper nigrum). Piperine is the active alkaloid in black pepper and is commonly combined with curcumin to support its absorption and bioavailability, as curcumin alone has limited oral bioavailability.
Curcuma longa has been used for centuries in traditional medicine for musculoskeletal complaints. Health Canada has licensed this product for use in Herbal Medicine as an anti-inflammatory to help relieve joint pain. Curcuminoids modulate key inflammatory pathways, and consistent daily intake provides the bioactive compounds required to support joint comfort and mobility.
