Curcumin

One to two tablets can be taken per day with milk or normal water

Steadfast CURCUMIN contains Curcumin and Piperine, a powerful combination that helps to boost immunity, reduce inflammation in the body, improve bone and joint pain, promote healthy skin, maintain gut health, and support the health of the heart and the brain. Steadfast CURCUMIN contains 500 mg Curcumin and 5 mg Piperine. 

The Curcumin extract (turmeric) is derived from the rhizomes of Curcuma longa, a horizontal underground stem of the plant that sends out shoots and roots of Turmeric, a vibrant yellow spice from India, commonly used in cooking. It’s curcumin that provides turmeric most of its health-promoting anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It supports heart function, blood circulation and helps maintain the health of skin, joints, bones, and liver. However, turmeric contains only 2-5% curcumin, making supplements a good option. 

Steadfast CURCUMIN also contains Piperine, a substance found in black pepper. Curcumin is known to have poor bioavailability across the blood-brain barrier. Piperine enhances the absorption of curcumin by up to 2,000%. Piperine also has anti-inflammatory properties and has been shown to provide relief from nausea and headaches. Thus, combining Curcumin with Piperine increases its potential health benefits.

Health Benefits of Steadfast CURCUMIN

1. Promotes Comfort and  Flexibility 

Studies have shown that curcumin works by reducing certain key inflammation-promoting enzymes in the body, promoting comfort and flexibility without any side-effects. It acts as a boon for athletes and fitness enthusiasts to support muscle recovery and joint health. 

2. Supports Healthy Joints and  Bones 

Antioxidants play a key role in keeping our joints healthy. The human body uses antioxidants to combat free radicals. Free radicals are unstable particles that are created as a result of millions of chemical reactions in the body. They can cause oxidative stress and damage on a cellular level. Research has proven that blood and fluid in joints of patients suffering from joint discomfort, have a higher activity of  free radicals  and lower levels of antioxidants. Curcumin being rich in antioxidants can give healthy support to the joints by combating inflammation and free radicals due to its chemical structure.

3. Promotes Youthful and Radiant Skin

Curcumin, being a very powerful natural antioxidant, helps reduce and neutralise free radicals, which may damage and destroy your cells and DNA,  accelerating  ageing. Since most ageing disorders are driven by oxidative stress, this makes curcumin an  important daily supplement for ageing adults.

4. Boosts Immunity 

The immune system is a network of various organs, tissues, and cells that work together to protect our body. Curcumin not only helps to enhance the responses of certain antibodies and cells within the immune system but may also help downregulate the expression of certain proinflammatory substances.

5. Promotes Heart  Health 

Studies have shown that curcumin helps reduce the oxidation of Low-Density Lipoprotein. Oxidised LDL can become reactive with surrounding tissues, leading to inflammation and consequently organ damage. Free radicals disrupt oxidised LDL, which can produce inflammation in the cardiovascular system. Studies suggest that the antioxidant effects of curcumin can help fight those free radicals and protect the heart.

6. Improves Gut Health 

Curcumin boosts the health of the gut by encouraging  the growth of gut-friendly bacterial strains such as Bifidobacteria, Lactobacilli, among others,.  reducing the pathogenic strain of bacterias. Studies have shown that  treatment with curcumin decreases microbial richness and diversity, with a specific reduction of species found as cancer-related. 

7. Reduces Inflammation

The polyphenolic components of curcumin help to reduce inflammation by suppressing the activity of 'NF-κB', which is responsible for inflammation. 

8. Improves Eye Health

Several clinical studies revealed that the polyphenolic component of curcumin helps in the treatment of various eye diseases such as glaucoma, cataract, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, corneal neovascularisation, corneal wound healing and dry eye disease.

9. Improves Digestion

Curcumin has been shown to calm the digestive system, providing relief from gas, bloating, and other stomach and bowel issues. It works differently than probiotics or enzymes - naturally soothing the gut, and reducing the overproduction of acid.

10. Supports Liver Health

The liver plays an important role in stabilising and balancing the maintenance of the body. The health of the liver can be directly related to oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory substances. Curcumin may help boost antioxidant defences to help the liver detoxify and restore balance.

11. Supports Brain Health

The connection between inflammation and cognitive health cannot be overstated. Neurons are especially susceptible to inflammation, and the release of inflammatory compounds in the body can be neurotoxic. Curcumin may help protect those precious brain cells.
