Lamberts Turmeric 20,000mg is a high potency root extract, standardised to provide 95% curcuminoids - the level generally used in studies. Each tablet contains 500mg of turmeric root extract, equivalent to 20,000mg of turmeric spice (or four heaped teaspoons of culinary turmeric). As a one-a-day formula, ideal for short-term use, our tablets are formulated for optimal absorption, disintegrating within 30 to 60 minutes of swallowing. The key active constituent in turmeric is curcumin, which is found within the root of the plant, belonging to a family of compounds called curcuminoids. As a clinically-led formula, Lamberts Turmeric 20,000mg utilises curcuma longa, given that this species has long been the subject of multiple studies. By working closely with trusted suppliers, we can ensure that we source the best ingredients to formulate a premium quality turmeric extract. Studies have already shown how the curcumin in turmeric can inhibit the compounds involved in the inflammatory response. Consequently, practitioners often combine turmeric with glucosamine sulphate to combat problems such as joint stiffness. Turmeric is increasingly being added to formulations for back problems and positive results have also been shown by researchers in a recent trial using the supplement to help ease some symptoms of irritable bowel. In a short time, some long-standing sufferers saw positive effects on the problems that had plagued them for more than 10 years. There is also research to suggest that turmeric may also aid the stimulation of appetite and have effects on digestive health, given its anti-inflammatory effects.
