Quick Overview

Optimal Turmeric provides Meriva® brand turmeric, a unique turmeric-phospholipid complex with superior bioavailability.

Many of the beneficial actions of turmeric are purported to be due to antioxidant and regulatory mechanisms exerted by its component curcumin.

Product Description

Why choose Optimal Turmeric by Seeking Health?

In addition to boosting antioxidant defenses, curcumin has beneficial effects on preventing lipid (fat) oxidation which helps reduce the potential for oxidative damage to blood vessels. Studies also suggest that curcumin may also assist glucose regulation and protect delicate ocular tissues such as the lens of the eye, thus helping protect against the harmful effects of elevated blood sugar levels.

What makes Optimal Turmeric superior to other Turmeric supplements on the market?

• Optimal Turmeric provides Meriva ®brand turmeric : Unfortunately oral absorption of curcumin is generally poor due to its low solubility and instability in the intestinal environment. To address this limitation and ensure consistent potency and improve bioavailability, Optimal Turmeric provides Meriva® turmeric phytosome complex. This patented ingredient combines turmeric extract with phosphatidylcholine from soy lecithin forming a bioavailable turmeric phytosome complex that is significantly better absorbed than regular turmeric extracts. Meriva® greatly increases curcumin stability in Optimal Turmeric and enhances oral absorption by over 20-fold!

• Helps regulate inflammatory responses: Inflammation is a complex defense and repair mechanism that is activated in response to challenge by infectious or allergenic agents, injury, disease, and even aging. If inflammation is not properly regulated, it can produce damage to tissues and slow down the body’s normal healing and repair processes. By favorably modulating the activity of certain inflammation-promoting compounds, turmeric can provide protection from excessive inflammation and help maintain cell integrity.

• Boosts antioxidant defenses: Tissues and genetic material are vulnerable to free radical damage caused by factors such as environmental pollution, poor diet, and medications. Active compounds in turmeric have been shown to exert potent antioxidant activity by neutralizing free radicals, enabling the body to better support itself against molecular and cellular damage. Studies show that turmeric’s antioxidant actions may be especially beneficial for protecting brain and spinal cord neurons needed for maintaining central nervous system function and cognitive capacity.

  • Turmeric and Pregnancy?2/29/12 6:45 PM
    • Hi,

      I was wondering if turmeric is safe to take while pregnant?
      I've had two prior miscarriages, have positive ANA + heterozygous A1298C MTHFR + gastritis and some joint pain. Wondering if turmeric can help reduce inflammation.

      Thanks so much!
      Sophie
    • Hi Sophie - Turmeric is a natural spice that can reduce inflammation very well and it has been used for 1000's of years. There are no studies ensuring safety during pregnancy; however. There is a general warning on turmeric use during pregnancy due to no research available. Please consult with your healthcare provider before using it. Best Dr Ben

  • Curcumin/Optimal Tumeric3/20/12 5:26 PM
    • Hi - My doctor wants me to consume a lot of tumeric and to perhaps take a curcumin supplement. Is your Optimal Tumeric straight tumeric with the other ingredients you mentioned, or is it primarily curcumin that is extracted from tumeric. thanks a bunch, Janet Riley
    • Hi Janet - Optimal Turmeric provides the form of curcumin that is most well-absorbed because it is in liposomal form. Curcumin is poorly absorbed unless it is in liposomes. Eating lots of turmeric is a good idea but it is not going to be as effective as taking Optimal Turmeric if you are looking to decrease inflammation. Doing both is best. In health, Dr Ben
