Pure Encapsulations CurcumaSorb

CurcumaSorb provides the patented curcumin-phosphatidylcholine complex Meriva for enhanced absorption and bioavailability. The proprietary phytosome technology combines curcumin and phosphatidylcholine at a 1:2 ratio, promoting resistance to degradation in the digestive tract and efficient absorption across membranes. This produces significantly higher peak plasma concentrations and larger area under concentration-time curves (AUC). In a single-dose pharmacokinetic animal study, plasma curcumin levels were 20 times greater with Meriva than standard curcumin. A preliminary human pharmacokinetic study demonstrated elevations in plasma curcumin from 450 mg Meriva were similar to values obtained from 4,000 mg of a standard curcumin extract.
