Curcumin supplements often use different names. Technically, turmeric is the yellow powder used in the kitchen to flavor dishes and curcumin is the natural concentrated substance that forms the basis of dietary supplements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStandardized extract with at least 95% curcuminoids\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe effects of curcumin have been extensively documented. However, curcumin is not very well absorbed by the body. The effectiveness of a curcumin supplement is therefore determined by its absorption profile. Always choose an extract with at least 95% of curcuminoids, an extract that is standardized and an extract with proven effectiveness such as Ergomax’s BCM-95® curcuma.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePatented formulation without piperine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBCM-95® always consists of a precise ratio of various natural curcuminoids and essential oils from the curcuma root. This synergy not only ensures quick and better absorption, but also more durable effects. BCM-95® is active within the body for about 10 hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSometimes curcuma supplements are combined with the substance piperine. This combination is not suitable for everyone. Caution is to be exercised when taking medicines. Piperine not only increases the absorption of curcumin, but also that of pharmaceuticals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e100% natural\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe quality of a vegetable food supplement starts with the way in which the plants are grown. Extra attention is paid to this in the production of BCM-95® curcuma roots. Growing conditions are optimal. No pesticides are used. BCM-95® has a 100% GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status and is safe to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e“Hormetic” effects of turmeric\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unique combination of curcuminoids contributes to the maintenance of healthy cells and tissues and protects against free radicals. Free radicals can cause oxidative stress in the body. Antioxidants are beneficial in protecting against these free radicals. Turmeric not only contains antioxidants. Less known is that curcuminoids are also health-promoting stressors (“hormetic” stimuli) with hormetic effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA hormetic effect occurs when the body is temporarily exposed to something that causes stress, such as calorie restriction, exposure to heat and cold, or fasting. Substances can also have hormetic effects, at certain doses. In response to the hormetic stimulus, the body becomes more resilient. Antioxidants with hormetic effects stimulate the body's own (endogenous) antioxidants to become extra active.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDiverse pleiotropic protective effects\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a multitude of molecular targets throughout the body, turmeric (curcumin) is a true pleiotropic food supplement: a substance with multiple effects in different body systems and through multiple modes of action. The use of turmeric supplementation has been widely documented. Turmeric is without doubt one of the most interesting herbs in the world of biochemistry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUsed throughout Asia for various applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurmeric (Curcuma longa) is also known as Indian turmeric. It belongs to the ginger family and grows in South and Southwest Asia. Turmeric plays an important role in the cuisines of various Asian countries. It is packed with beneficial vitamins and minerals such as vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, C, D, E and the minerals calcium, magnesium and iron. In India and China turmeric extract has been used to tackle various diseases for millennia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Ergomax\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoosing Ergomax is choosing quality, expert advice and proven effects.
