Turmeric Synergy with BioPerine®

Eleven ingredients for joint comfort and mobility. Turmeric extract at 95% curcuminoids, turmeric root powder, Boswellia, ginger, glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, bromelain, quercetin, L-methionine, and BioPerine®. Two capsules once a day. 60 capsules. Made in the USA. Glucosamine is from shellfish.

What's inside:

• Turmeric root powder: Supports joint comfort and a healthy inflammatory response.
• Turmeric extract (95% curcuminoids): Antioxidant support. Supports a healthy inflammatory response.
• Boswellia extract (frankincense): Supports joint comfort and mobility.
• Ginger root extract: Supports digestion and a healthy inflammatory response.
• Glucosamine sulfate 2KCl: A compound found in cartilage. Supports joint cushioning and flexibility.
• Chondroitin sulfate: A structural component of cartilage. Used with glucosamine for joint cushioning and flexibility.
• MSM: Supports joint comfort.
• Bromelain: An enzyme from pineapple. Supports a healthy inflammatory response.
• Quercetin dihydrate: A plant flavonoid. Antioxidant support and a healthy inflammatory response.
• L-Methionine: An essential amino acid used in joint and cartilage formulas.
• BioPerine® (black pepper extract): Trademarked piperine extract for curcumin absorption. Shoba et al. (Planta Medica, 1998) measured serum curcumin in healthy volunteers given 2 g curcumin plus 20 mg piperine. Bioavailability rose 2000% versus curcumin alone. This serving is not that trial dose.

The science:

Curcumin from turmeric absorbs poorly on its own. Shoba et al., Planta Medica, 1998, tested piperine with curcumin in healthy volunteers. Two grams of curcumin alone left serum levels undetectable or very low. Twenty milligrams of piperine with that curcumin raised bioavailability 2000%. They measured serum curcumin, not joint scores.

The rest of the bottle is a joint stack: glucosamine and chondroitin for cartilage structure, Boswellia and ginger for a healthy inflammatory response, MSM for joint comfort, plus bromelain, quercetin, and L-methionine.
