Use of Curcumin: With more than 3,000 pre-clinical investigations, Curcumin is the most studied plant in medicine. It has been studied for its beneficial effect on inflammation and arthritis. In traditional medicines, Ayurvedic and Chinese, Curcumin extracts have been used as supportive treatment of acute and chronic gastric ulcer, relief of indigestion and bloating; supportive treatment for arthritis, anti-cancer activities, among other.*
One of the biggest challenges with Curcumin is making it clinically available in the body: in natural existence it is unstable and poorly absorbed; hence one must take four to six capsules or tablets of normal Curcumin as an effective daily dose. But BioCurcuma contains a patented delivery mechanism (Meriva®) which vastly enhances bioavailability and promotes absorption.
