Curcumin has a long history of use for supporting healthy cyclooxygenase, prostaglandin and leukotriene metabolism.¹ It also appears to maintain healthy cell cycle function and antioxidant defenses.² Furthermore, it supports the body’s natural detoxification system and helps maintain healthy hepatic function. These actions are associated with its beneficial effects, including support for healthy liver, colon, musculoskeletal and cellular health.^3,4,5 Curcumin C3 Complex^® has been the subject of scientific investigations at a number of hospitals and universities. Studies indicate that curcumin maintains cellular health in various tissues, including the brain, where it maintains healthy immune cell activity. The gut microbiota and gut-brain axis may also play a part in mediating curcumin’s brain health benefits.^6-7 BioPerine^® is a black pepper extract that contains piperine, an alkaloid that enhances curcumin bioavailability.^8‡
