Holland & Barrett High Strength Curcumin provides joint support, with added vitamin D to also maintain normal bones and muscle function.

Use of curcumin

Turmeric is a spice, commonly used in curries and which gives them their yellow-orange colour.

Turmeric contains compounds called curcuminoids, which give the spice its health benefits.

These are called curcumin, demethoxycurcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin

The most important curcuminoid is curcumin and this is the active ingredient within turmeric and widely considered to be the most beneficial.

Taking a supplement with curcumin extract, such as this one, can help to support normal joints.

It is also thought that curcumin is a powerful antioxidant, which helps to protect the body from oxidative stress, the damage caused by free radicals.

Both turmeric and curcumin help to support normal joints but it is thought that curcumin has more concentrated benefits. Benefits of curcumin

This curcumin supplement helps to support joint health. It has 185 times greater bioavailability than standard turmeric supplements, which means that it is easily absorbed into the body and can get to work straight away.

As well as curcumin, this supplement contains added vitamin D. Vitamin D supports normal bones and muscle function.

Vitamin D is also known as the sunshine vitamin, as our bodies produce it when our skin comes into contact with direct sunlight. It can be difficult to get vitamin D, especially in the winter months, and so the NHS recommends that you take a daily vitamin D supplement.

With Holland & Barrett High Strength Curcumin, you get both joint support and vitamin D in one easy to swallow capsule.

Support for the joints

The joints are those areas in the body where two or more bones meet. They allow us to move. Almost every movement that you make involves at least one of the joints.

As we get older, our joints naturally tend to become stiffer and less flexible. The fluid that cushions the joints may decrease and the cartilage begins to wear away. This can limit the movement within the joints.

A curcumin supplement can offer support for the normal function of the joints.

Taking a curcumin supplement

Our lives are busy. We have to juggle work, family life, an exercise routine and socialising, all while trying to stay healthy. Luckily, taking a curcumin supplement does not have to be another task to add to you to do list.

All you need to do is take one capsule per day, preferably with a meal and…that’s it!

Choose whether to take it with breakfast, lunch or dinner and then you do not have to give it another thought until the following day.
