Curcumin

Curcumin Turmeric Extract Supplement

Each tablet contains Curcuma longa Root Extract (Curcumin) 200mg.

Health Benefits

1. Improves Gastric Mucosal Defense

Curcumin decreases gastric secretion and increases mucin content of the stomach, promoting peptic ulcer healing and decreasing abdominal pain. Exerts gastroprotective effects against ulcer formation induced by stress, alcohol, indomethacin, etc.

2. Supports Healthy Inflammatory Response

A powerful anti-inflammatory ingredient that inhibits COX-2, NF-kB activation and arachidonic acid metabolism. Stimulates release of adrenal corticosteroids, down-regulates proinflammatory cytokines, inhibits nitrosamine formation and enhances the body’s natural antioxidant system.

3. Helps Reduce Iron Overload

Curcumin prevents iron-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and reduces iron loading of cells, contributing to effective neutralization of iron toxicity. Alleviates pathology associated with oxidative stress in thalassemia patients and may increase haemoglobin levels.

4. Prevents Alzheimer’s Disease

Curcumin inhibits the formation and extension of beta amyloid fibrils that characterize Alzheimer’s disease. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory mechanisms make it promising in fighting aging and neurodegenerative diseases.

5. Promotes Healthy Blood Vessels

Curcumin lowers plasma concentrations of sICAM (linked to atherosclerosis), reduces cholesterol and triglyceride levels, inhibits platelet aggregation and increases fibrinolytic activity.
