Daily supplements of curcumin – the natural pigment that gives the spice turmeric its yellow color – may support healthy aging, with two new studies indicating benefits for arterial aging and cognition.

Lab experiments and preliminary clinical studies indicate that curcuminoids support immune and brain health in uniquely powerful ways. And earlier this month, the authors of a review paper painted this positive picture of the substantial clinical evidence on curcumin:“Extensive clinical trials over the past quarter century have addressed the … efficacy of [curcumin and] promising effects have been observed in patients with various pro-inflammatory diseases including cancer, cardiovascular disease, arthritis … [and more than 25 others]. (Gupta SC et al. 2013).

 

 

Curcumin C3 Reduct, Sabinsa’s new patented and clinically safe 95% tetrahydrocurcuminoids, is the result of recent research into metabolites of curcuminoids that have unraveled the role of tetrahydrocurcuminoids as not only the major metabolites but also pharmacologically superior than curcuminoids themselves. It is not the curcumin, but its metabolite, tetrahydrocurcumin (THC), which is responsible for its biological function in the body.
