ABOUT TURMERIC / ADDITIONAL CONTEXT

Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a plant whose rhizome has been used for centuries in traditional medicine. Its main active compounds are curcuminoids (including curcumin), which are known for antioxidant and inflammation-modulating properties. Modern research suggests turmeric may help with joint discomfort, digestion, antioxidant defence, and maybe cardiovascular health. Important limitation: curcumin is poorly absorbed unless taken with fats or a bioavailability enhancer (some products include these). Overuse may cause gastrointestinal discomfort or interact with some medications (especially blood thinners).

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. What is the active ingredient in these turmeric capsules?
   They use Curcuma longa rhizome powder, which naturally contains curcumin and related compounds.

2. How much turmeric should I take per day for joint support?
   Often one capsule (450 mg) once or twice daily with food is used for general support, unless advised otherwise by a healthcare professional.

3. Can turmeric help with inflammation and oxidative stress?
   Yes, turmeric’s antioxidant compounds may help neutralise free radicals, and its traditional use includes reducing inflammation in tissues.

4. Any concerns about bioavailability?
   Curcumin is naturally not well absorbed. Taking it with some dietary fat or a formulation with absorption enhancers improves benefit.

5. Is this safe if I have a medical condition or take medication?
   If you are taking blood thinners, have gallbladder issues, or are under medical care, you should consult your doctor before using turmeric capsules.

6. Can children or pregnant women use this product?
   This product is not recommended for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women unless explicitly approved by a healthcare provider.

7. Are there any side effects?
   Some users report mild digestive discomfort, especially with high doses. Always start with smaller doses and discontinue if adverse effects occur.

8. How long will one bottle last?
   At one capsule per day, a 100-capsule bottle lasts a little over three months. At two per day, about one and a half months.
