Curcumin is the primary bioactive substance in turmeric

Acts at the cellular level on inflammation and oxidation

Curcumin relieves muscle pain after physical exercise and improves recovery and performance in active people

Curcumin Health Benefits

Anti-inflammatory

Systemic inflammation has been linked to various conditions, including metabolic syndrome (MetS), which involves insulin resistance, hypertension, high LDL, high triglycerides and obesity.

Improves Insulin Sensitivity

Curcumin can reduce blood glucose level by reducing the hepatic glucose production, stimulation of insulin secretion, improvement in pancreatic cell function, and reduction of insulin resistance1.

Lower Blood Pressure

Consuming curcumin helps to improve blood pressure, when administered in long durations 2. By preventing free radical damage and promoting smoother blood flow, it maintains healthy vessels.

Weight Management

The curcumin suppression of angiogenesis in adipose tissue together with its effect on lipid metabolism in adipocytes may contribute to lower body fat and body weight gain. 3, 4

Muscle Pain Relief

The use of curcumin reduces the subjective perception of the intensity of muscle pain; reduces muscle damage; increases muscle performance; has an anti-inflammatory effect 5.

Recovery & Performance

Various curcumin-based interventions have improved self-perceived measures of pain and tenderness, reduced evidence of muscle damage, and enhanced overall recovery outcomes 6.

BUY MILESTONE® CURCUMIN

95% pure curcuminoids working in a natural mode of absorption, using a natural micelle structure.

185 x More Bioavailable

Medical curcumin comes only in the form of an extract. Treat your inflammation, and muscle recovery, 100% naturally with our synergistic functional food, combining the power of pomegranate, curcumin, and D3.

Native Curcumin
With Lecithin
Micronized Curcumin
With Piperine
MILESTONE® Curcumin

Typical forms of curcumin are poorly absorbed during digestion, and rapidly metabolized, which is why medical professionals typically prescribe curcumin with ingredients such as piperine to increase its bioavailability.

Beyond Organic

We cultivate organically because we care about the planet and do everything to sustain its biodiversity. This unique plant is self-protective against various diseases, which practically means a zero chemical footprint.

We produce turmeric with highly sustainable practices and free of any pesticide contaminants that are bad for you. Our actions make sure that there is no damage to air, water, land, soil, forests, and other living organisms.

Sports Performance

Studies in healthy adults aged 40-60 receiving 80 mg of curcumin daily showed reduced triglyceride levels and salivary amylase, a stress indicator. Curcumin also decreases perceived muscle pain intensity and increases antioxidant capacity, reducing muscle damage when consumed near exercise 7.

Fast Absorption

Our curcumin extract is 185 times more bioavailable (AUC 24h) than anything out there. It’s high bioavailability ensures absorption in as little as 66 minutes (versus up to 450 minutes for native curcumin) and will last as long as 24 hours (versus approximately 2 hours for native curcumin).
