Turmeric (Curcuma longa L.), a plant native to India that belongs to the family of ginger plants, has been considered sacred for more than 5000 years. The ancient Indian Vedas scriptures indicate that the "yellow root," or "Indian saffron," has long been one of the country's most important spices. In Ayurvedic tradition as well as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the root is still believed to have important medicinal and therapeutic uses, and has warming, cleansing, and stimulating properties. In Europe, different types of yellow root have also been known to serve as liver and gall bladder remedies since ancient times. Turmeric is one of the most well-researched plants in the world, with most scientific interest focussing on the plant's unique curcuminoids. However, other components of the root (such as essential oils and tumerosaccharides) are increasingly becoming the focal point of research.
Cureit® extract: highly concentrated full-spectrum root extract
In contrast to other extracts, the special extract Cureit® contains not only high-dose curcuminoids such as curcumin, but a total of more than 200 bioactive substances from the plant's root. The unique and patented PNS sandwich technology leads to a 10x higher (1000%) bioavailability of the curcuminoids than with conventional curcumin iodine extracts. Thanks to this technology, the bioactive curcuminoids are trapped between the water-soluble and fat-soluble curcuma components and can thus pass directly through the intestinal walls as a "sandwich," creating a uniquely diverse, highly bioavailable extract with the entire spectrum of highly concentrated active ingredients of the turmeric root. The high bioavailability is achieved completely without any additives or active enhancers such as piperine.
