Curcuma, also known as turmeric, is a bright orange root from the ginger family. It is widely used as a spice in Asian cuisine and naturally contains curcuminoids.

Curcuma in food is present in small amounts and its absorption is often low. A supplement contains a standardized amount of curcuminoids and is meant as a supplement to the daily diet.

CurcuWIN® is a patented extract with a natural composition similar to that of fresh turmeric root. This form is known for its improved absorption in the body.

Taking it with a meal, especially a fatty one, supports the absorption of curcuminoids as these substances are naturally fat soluble.

Curcuminoids are natural colorants that occur naturally in the root of the curcuma plant (turmeric). They give curcuma its characteristic yellow color and form the main component of curcuma extracts.
