Life Extension Curcumin Elite™ Turmeric Extract

We have spent years searching for a superior, highly bioavailable form of curcumin, one that delivers maximum health benefits so you can thrive. To do this, we needed to find a technology that protected curcuminoids during digestion and delivered more free curcuminoids per dose.

Fenugreek helps inhibit conjugation

Once in the body, curcuminoid compounds undergo conjugation, a normal chemical reaction where one compound attaches to another. This is problematic because conjugated curcuminoids do not necessarily provide the same health benefits as non-conjugated ones.^1,2

Curcumin Elite™ Turmeric Extract protects curcuminoids from conjugation by combining curcumin with galactomannans, a type of fiber derived from fenugreek seeds. Clinical and pre-clinical data shows that doing so produces 45.5 times more bioavailability and broader tissue distribution of free curcuminoids than unformulated curcumin.^3,4

In a clinical study, more than 70% of total plasma curcuminoids were still in their free form five hours after ingestion.⁴ That translates into more comprehensive whole-body health support from the curcumin supplement.

Superior curcumin, responsibly sourced

The total amount of free curcuminoids delivered by standard curcumin is low. So we now offer Curcumin Elite™ in order to provide the best possible curcumin supplement to our customers.

It is also worth noting that the curcumin in Curcumin Elite™ is sourced from a multitude of responsible farming collectives in India. Curcumin Elite™ is then made via FenuMAT™, a patented, environmentally friendly, water-based process during which it is combined with fenugreek fiber.
