- Ageless – Counteracts molecules that lead to premature aging, protecting fatty acids, proteins, and DNA from oxidation.
- Clear Thinking – Promotes healthy levels of brain-derived neutrophic factor (BDNF), a restoring molecule that is crucial for brain health. Too little BDNF can cause brain cell degeneration.
- Heart Health – Needed for the proper function of your endothelium the cells that line the walls of your blood vessels. Problems with this cell wall are a primary contributor to heart disease and failure.
- Joint Health – Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, curcumin can be a powerful aid to people with arthritis. It could help reduce pain, swelling and tenderness.

Inflammation has been a hot topic in medicine for nearly twenty years now. Studies in almost every field of medicine have shown that it is a major contributing factor to everything from heart disease, Alzheimer’s, digestive dysfunction and even type 2 diabetes. Even problems like depression may, in part, be due to inflammation.
Interestingly, one of the most powerful anti-inflammatories in the world has been used for millennia in India to treat what we now would think of as inflammatory conditions: pain, arthritis, and more.
Modern science has show that this compound, found in turmeric, can help much the same way anti-inflammatories you get at your doctors office or over the counter, but with few of the side-effects.
This compound is Curcumin.
What is Curcumin?
Curcumin is the molecule in turmeric that gives it that yellow-orange color. It’s one of three molecules that, when extracted from turmeric, make up what are called the curcuminoids. As noted above, it’s one of the most powerful anti-inflammatories available. It also has strong antioxidant properties.
This powerful supplement has so many health benefits, we should all be taking significant doses of it. But there is one problem. When taken orally, it is poorly absorbed. And not everyone can afford the cost and time associated with intravenous supplement therapy. That is where liposomal curcumin comes in.
Why Liposomal Curcumin?
When you take a powdered form of curcumin, whether in capsule form or otherwise, a tiny fraction of the active ingredient makes its way to your blood stream. However the liposomal structures in this product—microscopic spheres of fatty acid that encase the curcumin—protect it from the harsh environment of your stomach and digestive tract, making more curcumin available for absorption into your body. In addition, the liposomes facilitate absorption of the curcumin by fusing with the intestinal cells responsible for absorption of nutrients delivering more curcumin to the circulation than otherwise would be possible with just a plain powder supplement.
How to Take This Product
Take just over 1 teaspoon (250 mg Curcuminoids) with food once or several times a day. You can repeat dosing if necessary, in the early afternoon. Avoid taking late in the evening or before bed as the choline from the Phosphatidylcholine Complex that makes up the liposomes can be very activating and cause insomnia.
