Solving the bioavailability and functionality challenges of curcumin

HydroCurc®

Clinically proven and scientifically validated, HydroCurc® is one of the most bioavailable forms of curcumin on the market today.

HydroCurc® harnesses the benefits of LipiSperse® dispersion technology, to overcome common challenges associated with curcumin absorption. LipiSperse® is specifically designed to increase the bioavailability of lipophilic (oil-loving) ingredients such as curcumin.

Supported by a wealth of traditional and scientific research, curcuminoids are shown to be amongst some of the most potent antioxidants in the natural world.

The benefits of curcumin have been shown to deliver protective effects against many conditions associated with high levels of inflammation and oxidative stress. Inflammation is well known to promote disease in the body and a cause of many conditions. Scientists believe chronic, low level inflammation plays a major role in almost every chronic disease. Curcumin is capable of neutralising free radicals in the body, known to support cognitive, muscle, heart, joint and overall health. Free radicals can cause damage to DNA affecting healthy ageing.

Optimising Bioavailability

Bioavailability is the portion of an ingredient which enters the body’s circulation when introduced, and then is able to have an active therapeutic effect.

Curcuminoids (curcumin) are the active ingredient of turmeric,  pure turmeric itself contains less than 5% curcumin. As such turmeric and standard curcuminoid extracts are poorly absorbed by the body, hence rapidly eliminated. Therefore, increasing absorption is key to unlocking the myriad of benefits this powerful anti-inflammatory has to offer.

Curcumin is often combined with piperine (black pepper extract) to assist in overcoming absorption issues. HydroCurc® however utilises Pharmako Biotechnologies’ patented technology LipiSperse®, which allows curcuminoids normally limited ability to dissolve in aqueous environments like the stomach to be enhanced. Curcuminoid particles are able to freely disperse, increasing bioavailability as it becomes more readily available the body. Consequently, HydroCurc® does not contain piperine, and there is no need to add any.

HydroCurc® delivers curcuminoids to the body faster and more efficiently than standard curcumin extracts.

The HydroCurc® Advantage

Enhanced Bioavailability

Superior water dispersion allows HydroCurc® to deliver curcuminoids faster than standard curcumin extracts to the body, while reaching the highest levels of bioavailability on the market today.

Higher Active Load

Unlike other products containing just 20% curcumin and mainly made up of carrier, HydroCurc® delivers over 90% active ingredient.

Improved Functionality

Utilising LipiSperse®  technology allows curcumin to disperse in water, it can now be added to novel formats such as drinks and powders, gummies in full clinical dosages.

Clinically Validated

A published human pharmacokinetic study demonstrated that HydroCurc® delivers 807ng/mL curcuminoids in blood plasma, from a single dose.
