All About Curcumin: Who Should Take It, Why, and How?
hello .
In this lesson, we'll look at the basics of curcumin , why curcumin is recommended for women , and why you should check out curcumin's patented technology .
- curcumin
Before we learn about curcumin , let's start with turmeric , since curcumin is an extract of turmeric root .
Turmeric has been a representative spice responsible for the health of Indians since ancient times, and has been noted in Ayurvedic, an ancient Indian traditional medicine, and is also used in curry, a representative food .
Curcumin is a polyphenol phytochemical extracted from the root of turmeric, and is a substance that converts active oxygen in our body into harmless substances .
Curcumin has been attracting increasing public attention since its publication in the international scientific journal Cell in 2009 , and has been gaining popularity since 2016 for its various health benefits, including pain relief for inflammatory diseases such as rheumatism and osteoarthritis , improved memory , and alleviation of depression .

As a result, according to Sommelier Times , curcumin was ranked number one among the top five health functional ingredients that Americans most want to try in a survey conducted by market research firm BuzzBack ( 69% of respondents, multiple possible ) , and interest can be seen in many places around the world, not just India .
However , curcumin has a fatal drawback .
When curcumin is ingested as a raw material , its large particle size prevents it from passing through human cell membranes and most of it is excreted from the body without being absorbed . Furthermore, because curcumin itself is fat-soluble, its absorption rate in the body is also low .
Therefore , when consuming curcumin, it is important to consume it in a form that can increase absorption and bioavailability rather than consuming high doses of the raw material itself .
- Why Curcumin is Recommended for Women
Curcumin is a good nutrient for both men and women , but based on a recently published paper in July 2021 , we'll tell you why we recommend curcumin for women .
The study was conducted to investigate the effects of curcumin supplementation on inflammation , oxidative stress markers , muscle damage, and anthropometric indices in women who engaged in moderate-intensity exercise ( ≥1 hour of aerobic exercise per day ) .
A total of 65 women were randomly divided into a placebo group (n=33) and a 500 mg curcumin group (n=32) . As a result , the group taking 500 mg curcumin showed a significant decrease in the levels of inflammatory factor indicators , CRP, LDH, and MDA .
Through this, we can conclude that if adult women take curcumin along with light aerobic exercise for daily vitality ,
I recommend it because I think it will be a more effective way to manage your health .
- Why You Should Check Curcumin's Patented Technology
Curcumin has low absorption and bioavailability
Which curcumin should we take to have higher absorption and bioavailability ?
For this, we can simply find out with patented technology .
For example , there is a patented technology called SLCP tm from Verdure Science , USA, longvida .
SLCP tm stands for Solid Lipid Curcumin Particle , which refers to the liposomal form in which curcumin is surrounded by a phospholipid protective layer .
Here, I would like to briefly touch on the unfamiliar terms phospholipid barrier and liposomal .
To put it simply ,
A phospholipid membrane is a type of membrane that surrounds nutrients , and is a double membrane composed of a hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic tail .
Liposomal is a method of effectively delivering nutrients that are difficult to absorb in the body by protecting them using a phospholipid protective film .
In other words , adding SLCP tm technology to curcumin can increase the absorption rate of curcumin by protecting curcumin with a double layer of phospholipids and surrounding it with a hydrophilic head , allowing it to easily pass through the cell membrane in the body .
Additionally, comparing the AUC ( area under the drug concentration curve ) of regular curcumin and SLCP tm curcumin clearly demonstrates the difference in bioavailability .
Therefore, when taking curcumin , we recommend choosing a product that uses patented absorption and bioavailability technology .
