About Turmeric (source theturmeric.co)
“Turmeric root is an incredible ingredient boasting an impressive list of benefits; a root we have studied for many years to understand and ensure we harness the power of this raw ingredient without sacrificing any nutritional value. “Our powerful formula contains only raw and fresh turmeric root (35 grams), carefully extracted and delivered in what we know to be a bioavailable form. The addition of raw piperine (an extract of black pepper), which studies have shown can enhance the bioavailability of turmeric by up to 2,000%, combined with Flax Oil (a fat source) ensures maximum absorption, from every single shot.”
