The short answer is: You Don’t! It is unfortunate but the way the FDA regulates dietary supplements, less than scrupulous suppliers can give the impression that they have a very potent and beneficial product by using the term “proprietary blend” and then not listing ANY of the active ingredient quantities. A more detailed explanation can be found here. If you find yourself looking at a supplement facts panel such as this one:
You can count on the fact that you are NOT getting very much Standardized 95% Curcumin Extract at all!To receive the maximum beneficial effect we recommend you take your Turmeric Curcumin with a meal or immediately following a meal. We’ve included the patented absorption enhancer Bioperine Black Pepper Extract but absorption will be further enhanced if your meal has some amount of fat in it.
Turmeric has been used as a digestive aid and anti-inflammatory by Ayurvedic healers for centuries. In more modern times it was found that further benefits could be derived by extracting the natural curcuminoids in Turmeric. Still, benefits were limited because the human body does not absorb curcuminoids very well. In fact, the majority of the beneficial curcuminoids pass straight through the body and out with the urine. Bioperine is a patented black pepper extract that markedly improves the absorption of curcuminoids. This means that the money you invest in our Turmeric Curcumin is actually going to work to help you, not passing through your body.
After researching the positive benefits of Turmeric Curcumin we decided that as good as Turmeric Curcumin is for you, it could be made even better if it were blended with other natural anti-inflammatories. We worked closely with Dr. Jeffrey Hendricks to develop a blend that is superior to Turmeric Curcumin alone. As Dr. Hendricks says “it combines ingredients with its own benefit in the inflammatory cascade. While individually the effects are small to moderate, when you combine them you get additive benefits (1+1+1=3) and in some cases synergy (1+1+1=30).” LEAN Nutraceuticals has introduced the first product that uses, 95% curcumin, turmeric, and Bioperine Black Pepper Extract, in a single formulation.
Turmeric Curcumin is the only product available that has been scientifically formulated to deliver results beyond what Turmeric Curcumin can deliver alone. Formulated exclusively for LEAN Nutraceuticals by renowned Medical Doctor and biochemist Dr.Jeffrey Hendricks, each and every capsule delivers a synergistic fusion of natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatories.
Turmeric has been used since ancient times by Ayurvedic herbalists in India. Prized as a natural means of promoting cardiovascular and liver health and increased mobility through enhanced joint comfort.
Today science supports the insights of these ancient healers. The curcuminoids found in abundance in your LEAN Nutraceuticals Fusion Blend (50% more than the other brands) have powerful antioxidant effects and boost the activity of the body’s endogenous antioxidant enzymes. These effects are further boosted by the addition of Turmeric Rhizome (Curcuma longa root) and BioPerine® Black Pepper extract (Capsicum annuum) which all contain health vitalizing nutrients. The synergistic effect of these ingredients yields results that cannot be achieved by any single ingredient alone.
Finally, the absorption of the entire synergistic fusion blend is enhanced by the addition of Sabinsa’s patented BioPerine®. This means that the nutrients in your Fusion Blend are going to work for you, not passing right through your body. This means you are receiving greater benefits at a lower total cost This is truly a breakthrough product and we are happy to be able to share it with you.
