Curcumin

Curcumin 95% (from Turmeric)

Nature's Anti-Inflammatory Powerhouse

Curcumin is the primary bioactive compound in turmeric, responsible for its golden color and most health benefits. It's one of nature's most potent anti-inflammatory compounds, working at the molecular level to modulate inflammatory pathways. For dogs with joint discomfort or age-related inflammation, curcumin offers powerful, natural support.

How It Works

Curcumin works at the molecular level to modulate inflammatory responses. It inhibits NF-kB (a master regulator of inflammation), reduces production of inflammatory cytokines, and blocks inflammatory enzymes like COX-2 and LOX. Unlike medications that simply block inflammation, curcumin helps restore balance to inflammatory processes. It also provides potent antioxidant protection, both directly and by enhancing endogenous antioxidant systems.

Works Best With:

Ginkgo (complementary anti-inflammatory)
Boswellia (joint support)
Piperine (enhances absorption by up to 2000%)
