Youtheory® Turmeric Extra Strength features Curcumin C3 Complex®, a clinically studied turmeric extract with 95% total curcuminoids. Curcuminoids are the phytonutrient that gives turmeric its rich color and wide-ranging health benefits, including healthy inflammation response and antioxidant support.* This formula is enhanced with BioPerine® black pepper to boost the absorption and bioavailability of curcuminoids.*
Not all turmeric is created equal
Scientists have studied Curcumin C3 Complex® for decades to better understand its wide-ranging health benefits and the biological effects of curcuminoids inside the body. The name “C3 Complex” refers to the three (3) primary curcuminoids found in turmeric — curcumin, demethoxycurcumin and bis-demethoxycurcumin. Curcumin C3 Complex® is patented for its unique composition profile that conserves the natural ratio (76:19:5) of these three curcuminoids, as found in Mother Nature.
Enhancing bioavailability
Turmeric is poorly absorbed into the bloodstream and has low bioavailability in the body. To overcome these limitations, we’ve combined our high-potency turmeric with a powerful extract of black pepper: known as nature’s bio-enhancer. Studies suggest that piperine (a key compound found in black pepper fruit) can significantly boost blood levels of curcuminoids by nearly 2,000%! This simple spice combination is so effective at potentiating turmeric that it’s become the gold standard by which all turmerics (and all turmeric products) are measured.*
