-Theracurmin 2X has highest concentration of Theracurmin curcumin per capsule available
-Smaller capsule, more concentrated potency
-Number one absorbed form of curcumin
-Utilizes patented, natural colloidal dispersion technology to enhance bioavailability and dramatically increase curcumin levels in the blood
-Advanced manufacturing techniques increase free curcumin blood levels in a dosedependent linear relationship
-Curcumin modulates an impressive number of molecular targets – enhanced absorption allows for significantly greater potency and therapeutic effect
-High potency formula allows for easy dosing
-Suitable for vegetarians/vegansThe well-known benefits of curcumin, a polyphenolic extract of turmeric, have been attributed to powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.1-5 Curcumin has many molecular targets, such as the enzymes cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase, the NF-κB signalling pathway, a critical mediator of inflammation, as well as the enzyme p300, a contributor to diabetic and cardiovascular complications.6, 7
The limiting factor in curcumin’s efficacy has been its poor systemic bioavailability as it is poorly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and rapidly metabolized.13 Advanced manufacturing techniques used to make Theracurmin have reduced its particle size over 100-fold, and the combined use of natural emulsifiers to form a colloidal suspension has tremendously increased curcumin’s bioavailability. This significantly increases blood levels of curcumin many times that of other preparations, including so-called enhanced forms of curcumin. Theracurmin increases curcumin levels in a linear and dosedependent manner, bypassing previous limits of curcumin supplementation to achieve unparalleled blood levels of curcumin.14, 15

Sealed for your protection. Do not use if seal is broken. For freshness, store in a cool, dry place.
Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you are pregnant, are taking antiplatelet medication or blood thinners, have gallstones, a bile duct obstruction, stomach ulcers or excess stomach acid. Keep out of reach of children.
Caution is advised when taking with anticoagulant medications. Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if undergoing chemotherapy as curcumin has been shown to enhance the effect of some chemotherapeutic medications, as well as inhibit the effect of others. A reduction in the dose of medications used to treat diabetes may be necessary, as curcumin enhances the effect of insulin.
