Dragon Herbs Activated Curcumin Powder, derived from turmeric (Curcuma longa), is a potentially potent dietary supplement. Turmeric is one of the world’s supreme tonic herbs, and may be the most consumed herb in the world, largely as a spice and increasingly as a dietary supplement. Turmeric is the spice that gives curry its yellow color. It is the source of curcumin, a potent nutraceutical. The main active compounds in turmeric are called curcuminoids, the most important of which is curcumin. Curcumin is one of the yellowest substances in nature. Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a rhizomatous perennial plant of the ginger family. Many high quality studies show that curcumin has major benefits for your body, especially the cardiovascular system and brain. Curcumin is a very strong antioxidant. If you want to experience the full effects of curcumin, then you need to take an extract that contains significant amounts of curcumin. Curcumin is poorly absorbed into the bloodstream. It helps to consume black pepper with it, which contains piperine, a natural substance that enhances the absorption of curcumin. Piperine increases the absorption of curcumin by as much as 20 times. Dragon Herbs Activated Curcumin Powder contains piperine. Recent data indicate that, in healthy human subjects, the daily intake of 200 mg to 1 gram of curcumin per day can benefit cardiovascular and neurological function and well-being. Add it to blender drinks, soups, stews or other food.*
