Vitals Curcumin SLCP (Longvida®): Expert-supported vitality. Standard curcumin is barely effective due to poor absorption. This patented formula offers 285x better bioavailability. Feel the difference. A smart, plastic-free choice for the whole family. Boost your wellbeing immediately.
Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, is one of the most well-known herbal preparations, valued for centuries. The biggest challenge with curcumin is its limited absorption in the body; it is rapidly converted and excreted. Vitals Curcumin-SLCP™ (Longvida®) is a technological breakthrough from Verdure Sciences, in collaboration with UCLA.
These patented Solid Lipid Curcumin Particles (SLCP) increase curcumin absorption by 65x and bioavailability by as much as 285x compared to standard curcumin. Inspired by Indian cuisine, the curcumin is encapsulated in lipid-like particles. This enables a unique absorption route via the lymphatic system, initially bypassing the liver. This allows the biologically active 'free' curcumin to effectively reach various tissues and organs, and can even cross the blood-brain barrier for broad support. Thanks to the high bioavailability, a low, single daily dose is sufficient for optimal effect and ease of use.
