Curcumin Active
AOR Advanced Orthomolecular Research Advanced
Overview
Curcumin Active utilizes Longvida Curcumin, a highly bioavailable form designed to overcome the absorption challenges of standard curcumin. The stated dosage of 485 mg (or 970mg if taken twice daily, although the label lists both 485mg and 970mg as 'amount per serving' rather than suggesting a single dose for '1 capsule') and 133mg/266mg of curcuminoids (within the 485mg/970mg total) falls within the effective range used in clinical trials for Longvida (80-400 mg/day of total curcumin in Longvida form), suggesting good potential for efficacy in supporting anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits, as well as cognitive and joint health.
The Good

The Bad

Contains soy, which may be an allergen for some users.
Requires consistent long-term use (8+ weeks) for noticeable benefits.
