Free Radicals & Curcumin
What Is Curcumin (Turmeric)?
Turmeric (Curcuma longa), is a member of the ginger family that has long been used as a culinary spice. Curcumin, is the primary active component in turmeric, with very well-documented natural anti-inflammatory properties and antioxidant properties which help ward off free radicals.
Turmeric, in fact, has been shown to work much like conventional anti-inflammatories inside the body, by inhibiting the activity and inflammatory metabolic byproducts of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2) and 5-lipooxygenase (5-LOX) enzymes, as well as other enzymes and hormones involved in controlling inflammation, without the serious potential side effects associated with prescription drugs. In addition, Curcumin is a potent antioxidant that offers a one-two punch by not only preventing free radical damage but also boosting the body's own antioxidant production.
Curcumin supplementation has been studied extensively in the prevention and treatment of lung and liver disease, cardiovascular and metabolic conditions, cognitive and neurological deficits, autoimmune disorders, and sports injuries, among many others. It has also been shown to effectively lower blood glucose levels and alleviate pain associated with chronic and degenerative joint diseases and other inflammatory conditions. Recent research has also shown that daily supplementation with curcumin helps reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease.

Who Needs Curcumin For Free Radicals?
Curcumin supplements are frequently recommended to relieve any conditions with a strong inflammatory component including arthritis, osteoarthritis, and joint disorders in general. Practitioners will typically include curcumin in most protocols for cardiovascular disease, and the protection of brain health and function, as well as for disease prevention in general.
Turmeric is also frequently recommended to those with chronic GI conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), ulcerative colitis, as well as to relieve gas, cramping, bloating, diarrhea and constipation.
Curcumin Supplements For Free Radicals
Potencies
Curcumin potencies vary wildly and are offered in various doses from 30 mg to 500 mg and more, while the recommended daily dose can be anywhere from 0.45 to 3.6 g. What’s important to pay attention to when selecting your supplement is the % of curcuminoids (active compounds). Look for a brand that states that the turmeric extract has been standardized to 95% curcuminoids.
Forms
Curcumin supplements are available as conventional turmeric extract, as a standardized curcuminoid extract, with the addition of piperine (black pepper) for enhanced absorption, as Theracurmin, as well as in a patented turmeric complex that uses colloidal dispersion technology to enhance the bioavailability, or as Meriva 500-SF, a sustained-release capsule, that increases absorption and rate of retention.
Formats
Curcumin is widely available in capsules and powders, liquid extracts, teas, as well as in cut roots.
Final Thoughts
As effective an anti-inflammatory as curcumin is, it is unfortunately poorly absorbed, is quickly metabolized, and is rapidly eliminated. As such, it's crucial to pay attention to the label when selecting your formula.
Back pepper extract (or piperine) has been shown to greatly enhance curcumin's potential absorption. Indeed, black pepper extract is a bioavailability enhancer and is often added to curcumin (as well as other natural health products) to improve the absorption and bioavailability of the active ingredients. Black pepper extract is also routinely used to enhance the bioavailability of conventional drugs. Some forms of black pepper such as patented Bioperine have been shown to increase the bioavailability of curcumin by 2,000%.
