Description
Curcumin Ultra® Vegan represents a groundbreaking product from AOR. It stands as a distinctive blend, harmonizing free-form curcuminoids (CurQfen®) with water-soluble turmeric polysaccharides (Turmacin®). This combination yields an authentic full-spectrum Curcumin product, effectively combining the fat-soluble curcuminoids with the beneficial water-soluble components of turmeric, which are often absent in traditional curcumin extracts. Notably, Curcumin Ultra® Vegan also incorporates all three curcuminoids: curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin, each renowned for their distinct therapeutic benefits.
Biochemical analysis has shown that curcumin is insoluble in water and gastrointestinal fluids, undergoes rapid metabolism, displays poor cellular absorption, has poor blood brain barrier permeability, and is swiftly eliminated from the body. Curcumin Ultra® Vegan not only resolves the bioavailability challenges of other curcumin products, but also provides the highest levels of bioactive free-form curcuminoids on the market. This is achieved through a unique combination of fenugreek fiber (galactomannan) and curcumin, allowing for controlled release in the gastrointestinal tract. This release subsequently binds with epithelial membranes and elicits the release of colloidal nano sized soluble curcuminoids (sustained release), facilitating absorption through both circulatory and lymphatic systems. CurQfen® has confirmed its ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier, as demonstrated in a brain wave study.
It is widely known that curcumin and turmeric possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. While most of the health-promoting effects are attributed to the active molecule curcumin, research is shifting to understand the synergy among other components within this powerful root. The long polysaccharides in turmeric, called turmosaccharides (Turmacin®), are water-soluble compounds derived from the turmeric root. These compounds have demonstrated anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity independent of curcumin. These plant-derived polysaccharides also boast potent immunostimulatory effects, stimulating activity within various immune cell systems.
AOR’s Curcumin Ultra® Vegan is the first product in Canada to combine CurQfen® with Turmacin®, proving effective in addressing various conditions, including both acute and chronic pain and inflammation. This blend offers unparalleled absorption and bioavailability, providing the highest levels of bioactive free-form curcumin available on the market. Moreover, it exhibits superior stability when compared to other curcumin products and has been shown to circulate in the bloodstream for over 24 hours.
