Ground turmeric root is 2–5% curcumin by weight. Standard turmeric capsules use ground root. CurcuminBoost uses 95% standardised curcuminoid extract from certified organic turmeric — with ginger and piperine for absorption. 10× the active compound at the dose clinical trials actually use.

The clinical trials showing anti-inflammatory effects use curcumin extract — not ground turmeric root. Most products sell you ground turmeric and call it a curcumin supplement. These are not the same thing.
2–5% curcumin by weight. A 500mg capsule provides around 15–25mg of actual curcumin. Clinical studies use 500–1,000mg of curcumin extract. Standard capsules are 20–40× underdosed relative to evidence.
Each capsule provides 95% curcuminoid content — the same standardisation used in published clinical trials. Certified organic source. Combined with piperine (from black pepper) which increases curcumin bioavailability by up to 2,000%.
Standardised to 95% curcuminoids (curcumin, bisdemethoxycurcumin, demethoxycurcumin) from certified organic Curcuma longa. The dose and standardisation used in published RCTs.
Piperine inhibits glucuronidation — the liver process that rapidly clears curcumin. Adding piperine increases curcumin bioavailability by up to 2,000% in human studies.
Gingerols and shogaols in ginger have complementary anti-inflammatory mechanisms to curcumin — inhibiting COX-2 and prostaglandin synthesis. Organic, whole root extract.
Curcumin inhibits NF-kB — a key transcription factor that regulates inflammation. Multiple RCTs in osteoarthritis patients confirm significant reductions in joint pain scores, with effects comparable to NSAIDs in some studies but without GI side effects.
Curcumin crosses the blood-brain barrier. Research links chronic neuroinflammation to cognitive decline; curcumin's anti-inflammatory mechanisms have been studied for neuroprotective effects in multiple in vitro and human trials.
Curcumin directly scavenges free radicals and upregulates the body's own antioxidant defence systems (Nrf2 pathway), producing a sustained antioxidant effect beyond what direct scavenging alone achieves.
Curcumin and ginger both reduce gut inflammation and have been studied for IBS, bloating and post-meal digestive discomfort in multiple clinical settings.
Curcumin vs NSAIDs for knee pain: A comparative RCT found curcumin extract produced equivalent pain relief to ibuprofen in knee osteoarthritis patients with significantly fewer GI side effects.
Piperine and bioavailability: Research confirmed piperine co-administration increased curcumin bioavailability by 2,000% in human subjects versus curcumin alone.
Anti-inflammatory mechanisms: A comprehensive review confirmed curcumin modulates over 200 molecular targets involved in inflammation, including NF-kB, COX-2 and multiple cytokines.
Is it safe to take with other medications?
Curcumin has blood-thinning properties at high doses and may interact with anticoagulants (warfarin), antiplatelet drugs and some diabetes medications. If you take any prescription medication, consult your GP before use. Safe for most healthy adults at standard supplemental doses.
Why organic?
Conventional turmeric crops are heavily treated with pesticides. Certified organic certification ensures the curcumin extract is free from pesticide residues — important given the high concentration of the extract used.
