Advanced Curcumin Elite

Curcuminoids are the compounds in curcumin that help inhibit inflammation to support joint and vital organ health, promote healthy immune response, encLife Extension'sage heart health and provide potent cellular protection against free radicals. But the total amount of free curcuminoids delivered by standard curcumin is low.

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

Advanced Curcumin Elite™ 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 hLife Extension'ss after ingestion.⁴ That translates into more comprehensive whole-body health support from the curcumin supplement.

Turmerones and ginger

We’ve added several plant compounds to Advanced Curcumin Elite™ to enhance health benefits of this supplement. Standardized ginger compounds and turmerones from turmeric oil complement curcumin’s ability to help promote a healthy inflammatory response and enhance curcumin’s other health benefits as well.^5,6

Superior curcumin, responsibly sLife Extension'sced

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

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