CERTIFIED ORGANIC TURMERIC
Many botanical supplements sold today come from non-organic sources, depleting them of their nutrient capacity. Though turmeric is a distinguished healing herb, synthetic knockoffs have made it difficult to find high-quality supplements that provide the herbal support consumers seek.
Organic botanicals typically have more phytonutrients, which are highly nutritious substances found within plants. Common phytonutrients include flavonoids, carotenoids, and sulfides. These powerful compounds give fruits and vegetables their vibrant colors and may help to promote good health.4 Organic produce, like turmeric, is believed to have a greater positive impact on the body, when compared to non-organic produce. The rich diversity of phytonutrients found in organic crops may contribute to optimal health and wellness.5
What truly sets Purmeric™ apart from other herbal supplements is the superior natural profile that can only be found from organically sourced turmeric. Purmeric™ may supply greater health benefits due to its organic compounds.* Unlike most herbal supplements, Purmeric™ delivers 95% curcuminoids in an enhanced organic capsule that is easily absorbed by the body. Organic botanicals typically have more phytonutrients than non-organic botanicals, and are more beneficial to the body.
WHY DO WE NEED ANTIOXIDANTS?
An antioxidant is any substance, man-made or natural, that inhibits oxidation in the cells of living organisms. Oxidation can produce free radicals which, when left unattended, may cause oxidative stress within the body. Oxidative stress has been thought to be a major contributor to the development of many diseases in the human body.1
Free radicals are the result of natural biological processes or can also be introduced from a variety of external sources such as pollutants, tobacco smoke, pesticides and even fried foods.2 They are molecules that contain at least one unpaired electron, causing them to be highly reactive and unstable. When free radicals come in contact with vital cells in the body, such as DNA cells or the cell membrane, they damage the cells. This may result in the termination of the damaged cells.3
Antioxidants are known as “free radical scavengers,” which help the body combat free radicals by donating an electron to safely neutralize free radicals. Antioxidants may also help reduce the overall formation of free radicals. The body needs antioxidants in order to maintain a safe balance of free radicals.
