FAQs

What is Curcumin Phytosome?

A curcumin supplement using Meriva®, a phytosome form that binds curcumin to sunflower phospholipids for much better absorption.*

How do I take it?

Take 1–2 capsules twice daily, or as recommended by your health-care practitioner.

How is it different from regular turmeric or curcumin?

Curcumin on its own is poorly absorbed. Binding it to phospholipids (Meriva®) delivers up to 29 times greater absorption than other curcumin extracts.*

Does it contain black pepper?

No. Thorne avoids black pepper and piperine because they can irritate the gut; the phytosome form enhances absorption instead.

Who may benefit from curcumin?

Active adults with overworked muscles and joints, and anyone looking to support a healthy inflammatory response in the joints, GI tract, liver and brain.*

How long does curcumin take to work?

It varies. Some people notice changes within days, while others need a few weeks of consistent use.

Can I take it if I have a sunflower allergy?

No. The phospholipids are extracted from sunflower oil, so Thorne does not recommend it for anyone with a sunflower allergy.

Does curcumin interact with any medications?

Research suggests curcumin may reduce the effectiveness of cyclophosphamide and interfere with irinotecan; avoid concurrent use. If pregnant, consult your health-care practitioner.
