Regular curcumin is poorly absorbed by the body and is easily destroyed when it enters the stomach and digestive tract. Meriva^? is a unique curcumin because it is complexed with phospholipids (type of healthy fat), in a process that results in a Phytosome.

This special Phytosome^? technology provides a dual benefit – protecting the curcumin from the damaging effects of water after ingestion, while greatly enhancing the bioavailability of the curcumin. Curcumin ultimately must be absorbed by the cells of the body in order to benefit our health. The cell membranes in our bodies are made up of phospholipids. Because Meriva^? curcumin is combined with phospholipids, it’s easily recognized by the cell membranes and so is much more readily absorbed.

Comparison studies have shown Meriva^? to have up to a 29-fold better absorption  of important curcuminoids versus other standard 95% turmeric products. This radical improvement in bioavailability means better delivery of turmeric’s important health benefits to you.
