Turmeric, and its main active ingredient, curcumin, have a myriad of health benefits. The problem with most turmeric supplements however, is that very, very little of it is bioavailable (your body can't use it) when going through the digestive system. In other words, the digestive system gets rid of most of the "good stuff" when you take other turmeric supplements.
Turmeric Supplements Without This Key Ingredient Are Worthless...
Our TrimGaurd formulation includes Bioperine®, which increases the bioavailability of the "good stuff" by an astounding 2,000%1! Without Bioperine, most of the turmeric & curcumin will just pass through your digestive system without being absorbed.
Multiple studies how shown turmeric and curcumin to be significantly reduce inflammation, and in some cases, rival the effects of prescription drug treatments2, but without the side effects.
In one study3, curcumin was shown to be as effective as exercise in improving the endothelial function of post menopausal women. In another study4, patients given curcumin experienced similar increases in endothelial function as patients being treated with atorvastatin.
Turmeric and curcumin has shown promising benefits in treating depression. According to one study5, curcumin was shown to be as effective as an antidepressant.
