Theracurmin®
A proprietary form of curcumin using Japanese technology to show one of the highest bioavailability.
The Origin
Theracurmin® starts off as raw turmeric, sourced and harvested from carefully selected farms and production areas in Asia.
Selection Process
The ingredients in Theracurmin® are raw materials that can be taken safely from the start. Theracurmin is made with everyone in mind and is vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and non-allergic.
Manufacturing
Starting as Turmeric, the raw materials are dried, ground, and transformed into curcumin. The raw curcumin powder is then micronized with patented technology and spray-dried. After being carefully inspected for quality control, the manufactured Theracurmin® is packed and shipped.
What is Turmeric?
Turmeric is a perennial plant of the ginger family and is widely spread throughout Southeast Asia. Commonly used as a spice, flavoring, and coloring agent and as a food preservative, turmeric is used often in curries.
What is Curcumin?
Curcumin is a polyphenol contained in the rhizome of turmeric and is the main active ingredient in turmeric. Curcumin gives turmeric its unmistakable, bright yellow color. Curcumin is also known for its anti-inflammatory properties, and for being a great source of anti-oxidants. However, when taken in a standard powdered form the benefits are not maximized due to low bioavailability. Studies are constantly being conducted on curcumin and its benefits.
What is Theracurmin®?
Theracurmin® was created in order to combat the low bioavailability and absorption rates that curcumin has.
Using Japanese technology such as sub-micron particle processing and surface controlled technique,
particles of curcumin are made to optimum size to be more easily absorbed by the human body.
Theracurmin® vs. Curcurmin
Theracurmin® is significantly reduced in size compared to regular curcumin particles, making it easily absorbable, and giving it a higher bioavailability than raw curcumin.

Absorption of Theracurmin®
The larger the particle size, the harder it is to be absorbed into our bodies. While turmeric has been used as a health supplement for centuries, a large amount needs to be ingested in order to see any benefits. Theracurmin® possesses high bioavailability, making it easier for our bodies to absorb and make use of its health properties.
Dispersion of Curcumin
The small particle size of Theracurmin® also makes it easy to blend in liquid. The dispersion of Theracurmin® in water remains the same color and opacity and does not settle compared to other curcumin preparations.
Dispersion in Action
Once stirred into a liquid, Theracurmin® does not clump together, sit on top of the surface or sink to the bottom,
but disperses evenly throughout the liquid. Consuming Theracurmin® this way will not impact its health properties.
Bioavailability Graph
90 mg of Theracurmin® is over 42 times more bioavailable than 90 mg of ordinary curcumin. The study conducted was a randomized, open-label, cross-over study with 24 healthy participants. Findings showed that Theracurmin® is more easily absorbed in the body than regular curcumin, making Theracurmin® more effective.

Applications
While Theracurmin® retains turmeric’s bright yellow color, it is flavorless, odorless, and does not need to be taken
in capsule form. Mixing it with liquids or foods will not change its effectiveness, making it an easy addition to tea,
water, and other foods.
