Curcumin Phytosome (Meriva)
Also known as Curcumin Phytosome
What is Curcumin Phytosome (Meriva)?
A high-absorption form of curcumin (turmeric extract) bound to phospholipids (e.g. Meriva) for far better bioavailability than plain curcumin.
How Curcumin Phytosome (Meriva) works
Curcumin down-regulates inflammatory pathways (NF-κB, COX-2); the phytosome form dramatically increases absorption, which is otherwise poor.
