Doctors Best Curcumin Phytosome, featuring Meriva. Curcumin is the component in turmeric that offers a natural anti-inflammatory effect. Curcumin has been widely researched and studies have shown that its anti inflammatory action can also be useful for digestive disorders including pain, spasms and nausea, as well as for joint problems. The curcumin from turmeric is not easy to absorb. That is why Doctor's Best have used the specialized curcumin phytosome complex, where curcumin has been bound to phosphatidylcholine. Phosphatidylcholine is readily absorbed by the body and with the curcumin attached to it, this results in superior curcumin absorption. 500mg of Meriva curcumin phytosome complex per Capsule.
