- Turmeric extract standardized to 95% curcuminoids
- With the addition of black pepper extract (95% piperine)
- High bioavailability of active substances
Apollo's Hegemony Curcumin 95 + Piperine is a dietary supplement that includes turmeric rhizome extract standardized to 95% curcuminoids, enriched with black pepper extract, a source of piperine. It is believed that it can support the absorption of curcumin, in addition to exhibiting a broad spectrum of biological activity, bringing additional benefits.
Turmeric(Curcuma longa) is the colloquial name used to describe the long-stemmed oyster. The plant is native to India and is one of the best-known spice plants, also valued for its health benefits. Its beneficial effects are believed to be due to the presence of numerous polyphenolic compounds called curcuminoids. Unfortunately, these substances are characterized by rather low bioavailability. However, studies show that there are compounds that increase their bioavailability and aid absorption. One of these is piperine.
Piperine is an alkaloid naturally present in peppercorns, responsible for the spice's pungent, burning taste. Scientists have found that when juxtaposed with various chemical compounds (e.g. curcumin, coenzyme Q10, beta-carotene, selenium) it makes them more available and aids their absorption.
The presented preparation provides support for the digestive system. Turmeric extract included in the composition has a beneficial effect on digestive processes. In addition, it promotes the proper secretion of bile and production of gastric juices. Its effect is enhanced by the presence of black pepper fruit extract, which is also known to support the digestive system and promote normal liver function.
The presented preparation supports the fight against oxidative stress. It provides compounds that readily react with free radicals of almost all types (hydrogen peroxides, hydroxyl radicals, superoxide radicals). In addition, it is a source of curcumin, which promotes the proper activity of endogenous antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase. Moreover, studies show that curcuminoids promote the reduction of lipid oxidation.
In conclusion, Apollo's Hegemony Curcumin 95 + Piperine is a formulation based on two natural substances. It provides an exceptionally beneficial combination of biologically active curcuminoids with piperine, which supports their absorption
