Using the Positive Effects of Curcumin with CAVACURMIN®

• Curcumin is among the best known biofunctional substances, with many health effects confirmed in countless studies. However, its bioavailability is low.
• CAVACURMIN^® is a highly bioavailable curcumin powder, which is absorbed about 40 times more efficiently than pure curcumin extract.
• The free-flowing, readily dispersible powder is formulated by complexing natural curcumin with the oligosaccharide gamma-cyclodextrin. 

Human Clinical Study

Absorption of Total Curcuminoids Over Time

Already one hour after ingestion of CAVACURMIN^®, the curcuminoid concentration in the blood was significantly higher than for all other commercial formulations and remained at a high level for twelve hours.

Relative Absorption of Total Curcuminoids (AUC)

CAVACURMIN^® has a bioavailability that is about 40 times higher than that of pure curcumin extract. This allows the considerably higher effectiveness at much lower doses.

Advantages

• About 40 times more bioavailable
• Bioavailability confirmed in peer-reviewed clinical study
• Supplied as a dry, free-flowing powder
• Readily soluble in aqueous solutions
• Min. curcuminoid content: 15%
• Contains natural turmeric extract (no synthetic curcumin)

Benefits of CAVACURMIN®

• The bioavailability of curcumin complexed with gamma-cyclodextrins is around 40 times that of a pure extract obtained from turmeric.
• Curcumin, which is fat-soluble, is encapsulated by water-soluble gammacyclodextrin, yielding a complex that forms a molecular dispersion in water. The human body is then able to absorb the curcumin much more readily.
• CAVACURMIN® is a free-flowing, dispersible powder. It can be incorporated into various products aimed at athletes, such as powders, capsules, gummies, energy bars or functional beverages.

Boosting Sports Performance

• Health and fitness are powerful modern trends. More and more people are adopting to a healthier lifestyle and trying to improve their physical fitness: With CAVAQ10^® and CAVACURMIN^®, WACKER offers a powerful duo for efficient sports nutrition.
• Numerous studies show that coenzyme Q10 can contribute to improved performance and delayed fatigue. Curcumin, on the other hand, can help maintain healthy muscles and promote regeneration after sport.
• WACKER’s cyclodextrin complexes supply these valuable ingredients with significantly improved bioavailability.
• A combination of the two can be used to prepare sports nutrition products that improve both performance and regeneration.
• Both ingredients are available as convenient powders that can be easily dispersed in water. In this way, a wide variety of different dosage forms is possible.
