TurmiPure Gold®
Although most people use health supplements and medications, they understand that health supplements are not a replacement for medical drugs. But, have you ever wondered why numerous health supplements fail to deliver on their promise?
The reason is simple. Although health supplements are rich in beneficial compounds, most of them do not get absorbed by the body. As a result, they do not reach target organs and therefore do not give the results or fail to give the help as expected.
Turmeric is one of the most studied spices for health benefits. However, studies show that turmeric has a very low content of about 3.8% of curcuminoids. Today, most supplement manufacturers prefer adding turmeric extract, that is, purified curcuminoids, to their products.1
But again, it appears that even consuming pure curcuminoids in large amounts are not solving the problem. This is because only a fraction of them gets absorbed when consumed orally. Since curcuminoids fail to reach the bloodstream, they fail to help.2
Now, most manufacturers realise the need to solve the problem of bioavailability. But, more importantly, provide firm evidence to consumers that their supplement works.
What is TurmiPure Gold®?
TurmiPure Gold® is a 100% natural, 100% organic, clean-label formula containing 4 natural ingredients: turmeric, acacia gum, sunflower oil and quillaia extract. TurmiPure Gold® is the world's first bioequivalent turmeric at a low dose of 300mg. Its innovative and safe formulation highly enhances the bioavailability of curcuminoids, in addition to being instantly water dispersible.
TurmiPure Gold® – One of the Most Bioavailable Curcuminoids
These days many supplement manufacturers are using technologies long developed by the pharmaceutical industry to improve their products. In the pharmaceutical industry, people know that two drugs with an equal amount of any substance are still not identical. The better product is the one that reaches its target organs via the bloodstream, a product with higher bioavailability.
One of the issues with various natural compounds is their poor water solubility. This is one of the main reasons why the body cannot absorb them sufficiently. However, there is a way of making the product water-soluble. One of the better ways to enhance the water solubility of curcumin is to create micro-emulsion. This makes curcuminoids not only water-soluble, but it also ensures that molecules are so small that they readily get absorbed.
Where is the Evidence?
TurmiPure Gold® 300 mg is tested to be 24 times more bioavailable than the usual 1500 mg curcumin formulations. It has been confirmed in a well-designed bioequivalence study in 30 healthy subjects, comparing TurmiPure Gold® with five other products. The study demonstrated that TurmiPure Gold® might provide consistently high plasma levels of curcuminoids for almost 24 hours. These studies confirmed that low-dose (300 mg) TurmiPure Gold® that uses patented technology to boost bioavailability is much more potent than standard high-dose (1500 mg) products.3
It is also worth noting that in the study, TurmiPure Gold® was compared with standard turmeric curcuminoids, curcuminoids with piperine, curcuminoids with phospholipids, and curcuminoids with the liquid micellar formulation. This means that other supplements compared in the study also contained bioavailability enhancers, but they could not achieve similar results.3
Other Benefits of TurmiPure Gold®
TurmiPure Gold® is also tested in clinical trials for safety, stability, and efficacy in certain conditions including joint health, cognition, and liver health. Some of these clinical trials for the product are still underway, and early data analysis shows encouraging results.4
To conclude, there are many products based on curcumin. However, despite the well-known benefits of curcuminoids, most supplements fail to help. TurmiPure Gold® is the world’s first low dose curcumin supplement tested in numerous studies. An article published in The Journal of Nutrition states that there is firm evidence that low dose TurmiPure Gold® has a significant benefit over a standard high dose extract.5
