Longvida curcumin 500 mg capsules 60 capsules per bottle

Curcumin is extracted from the turmeric root and is known to have anti-inflammatory as well as antioxidant properties.

Though turmeric has been used over the ages the active ingredient curcumin which is just 5% of the composition has been isolated and used in medical formulations in the last 15-20 years. Most of the clinical data available is based on studies using non conjugated or glucuronidated free form of the ingredient. Curcumin however is known to be rapidly broken down conjugated and excreted when taken orally. This changes the form of curcumin into a compound which is not very effective.

Longvida was developed by UCLA Neurologists using a patented SLCP Technology delivers Originally developed to increase systemic bioavailability as well as increase permeability through the blood brain barrier, Longvida today is used in many applications besides brain health.

Patented Solid Lipid Curcumin Particle (SLCPTM) Technology enables the uptake of Free Curcumin through the lymphatic system which is a parallel system to the circulatory system mostly functioning to transport metabolites from cells. Longvida enters the Lymphatic system and since lymph flows very slowly compared to blood it can stay longer in circulation. This ensures 5 times higher bioavailability of Free Curcumin in plasma and ten-fold higher in lymph, when compared to the standard curcumin,

Over 30 published studies which support a number of health applications, including, Cognitive Health, Retinal Health, Vascular Health, Exercise Recovery, Sports Nutrition, Joint Health, Healthy Ageing and Immune Health.
