Product Description: Curcumin Phytosome Supplement Joint Strength Liver Detox Digestive Support Soy Free Gluten Free Extended Release Thorne Exclusive Meriva-SF is a highly absorbable extended release curcumin formula. Meriva is a clinically studied curcumin that is 29 times more absorbable than regular curcumin. Meriva helps maintain a healthy inflammatory response throughout the body. Meriva-SF (Extended Release) helps relieve intermittent pain, joint stiffness and muscle soreness. Used in Asia for thousands of years, curcumin is a powerful antioxidant that provides numerous health benefits, including joint, liver, gastrointestinal, eye and cardiovascular function. However, curcumin is generally poorly absorbed into the bloodstream when taken in food or supplement form. Meriva Curcumin Phytosome, the most clinically studied curcumin on the market, is a special curcumin extract that is far more absorbable than other curcumin extracts. In fact, in human studies, Meriva was shown to be 29 times more absorbable than regular curcumin. Curcumin is an antioxidant flavonoid that helps maintain the body’s normal inflammatory response by optimizing cytokine production. Meriva’s superior curcumin absorption is due to its formula, which contains three curcuminoids (95% curcuminoids) and is based on Indena S.p.A.’s proprietary ‘phytosome’ technology. Phytosomes are plant extracts bound to phospholipids (sunflower oil in the case of Meriva-SF). Phospholipids are essential components of all human cells. Although the body makes phospholipids, such as phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylserine, phospholipids can be obtained from food or supplements and are very well absorbed when taken orally. The proprietary phytosome technology used in Meriva-SF attaches curcumin extract to phospholipids, optimizing curcumin absorption. Meriva supplements increase plasma levels of curcumin at much lower doses than regular curcumin supplements. Meriva-SF (extended release) contains 250 mg of curcumin phytosome complex per capsule.
