Swanson Turmeric & Black Pepper capsules contain a potent 600mg of turmeric, enhanced with black pepper to ensure optimal bioavailability. Since ancient times, Indian Ayurvedic herbalists have used turmeric as a tonic for cardiovascular and liver health and to promote joint comfort and mobility . Modern science has revealed that turmeric contains unique phytochemicals known as curcuminoids, which have potent antioxidant effects and enhance the activity of the body’s endogenous antioxidant enzymes , delivering a one-two punch to kill free radicals.
Why combine black pepper and turmeric?
Because piperine helps your body absorb more curcumin. A study published in Planta Medica found that combining 20 milligrams (mg) of piperine with 2 grams (g) of curcumin increased the amount of curcumin that could be absorbed by the body (a concept known as bioavailability) by 2,000 percent . And piperine increases the bioavailability of many nutrients by preventing metabolizing enzymes (enzymes that are used to break down drugs, foods, and other substances) from doing their job.
Like turmeric, black pepper has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties , making it potentially useful for managing inflammatory conditions and reducing free radical damage.
