Attention! All Curcuma Products Are Not Equal!
Frequently, curcuma products available on the market are contaminated.
Curcumin, the most important ingredient of curcuma, is very valuable, but now it also can be produced synthetically. Often some percentage of natural curcumin is mixed with a considerable amount of artificially produced curcumin, so as to disguise the non-natural origin of the synthetic materials. Synthetically manufactured curcumin is considerably cheaper.
The only method to determine the naturalness of a curcuma product is the so-called isotope measurement. This is an elaborate, expensive analytical method that only a few institutes carry out. By measuring C14 carbon atoms in the material, one can determine whether components of petroleum are present: synthetic curcumin is produced from petroleum, and can be told from non-natural curcumin by this method.

Curcuma longa by Dr. Alexander Michalzik M.D. is not comparable to curcuma root powder, but is highly concentrated with 95% natural curcuminoids. Curcuminoids consist of natural curcumin, demethoxy-curcumin and bis-demethoxy-curcumin. This corresponds to the natural composition of the curcuma longa root, but in a much higher concentration.
To receive the daily dosage of recommended curcuminoids, you would have to consume 62 grams of simple curcuma root powder. Curcuma root powder often contains only between 2 to 5 % curcumoids. Besides the valuable curcuminoids of Dr. Michalzik's Curcuma longa this product is also enriched with Vitamin C.
Vitamin C contributes:
- to a normal function of the nervous system and the psyche
- to the protection of cells from oxidative stress
- to reducing fatigue and exhaustion
- to a normal energy metabolism
- to a normal function of the immune system
- to normal collagen formation for the healthy functioning of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, teeth and skin
Vitamin C increases iron absorption.
