285x GREATER BIOAVAILABILITY - as standard curcumin is very poorly absorbed, Longvida provides a fatty coating around the curcumin, to enhance absorption
HIGH DOSE IN FREE FORM - Longvida provides free form curcumin which is directly transported into the lymphatic system, ensuring clinically beneficial levels in the body
LONG LASTING - free form cucumin has a significantly higher half life, so it is retained in the body for 7x longer than standard curcumin
UNIQUE BRAIN SUPPORT - Longvida curcumin is the only form of curcumin proven to cross into the brain & it also exerts its antioxidant effects on joints
NO BLACK PEPPER EXTRACT - we have formulated this product without black pepper extract due to its negative effects of suppressing liver detoxification function
Longvida Optimised Curcumin
Longvida Curcumin - Ultra bioavailable and the only delivery system proven to deliver free form active curcumin
Curcumin is a naturally occurring yellow pigment found in the spice turmeric, widely used for joint support, muscle soreness, and cognitive decline. We provide the most bioavailable form of curcumin using Longvida technology, a unique form of curcumin with sustained action. The Longvida delivery technology protects the bioactive ‘free’ curcumin through the harsh environment of the stomach, and also protects against early excretion in the kidneys. ‘Free’ curcumin is also smaller than the other forms often found in supplements and the only form that’s been proven to pass the blood-brain barrier. This means that Longvida can transfer the remarkable properties of curcumin to the cells of the brain.

'Free' form curcumin
Curcumin is one of the 3 main curcuminoids derived from turmeric root, which includes curcumin, DMC and BDMC. As ‘free’ curcumin is the most bioactive, at Igennus we provide curcumin using longvida technology to optimise its benefits. Unfortunately, many supplements, including those using delivery systems like Meriva, actually deliver very little ‘free’ curcumin, and more of the lesser active curcuminoids, which may not be as beneficial for health. Longvida technology is the only delivery system proven to effectively retain ‘free’ curcumin in the body.
Bioavailable & long lasting
Standard curcumin (turmeric) is very poorly absorbed, at less than 1%. Absorption is diminished throughout the digestive process, including being degraded by stomach acid. As a result, the half-life of standard curcumin (the time taken to halve its concentration in the body) is less than 1 minute! Piperine (black pepper extract) can extend its half-life to 6 minutes, however it has negative effects of suppressing liver detoxification function. In contrast, Longvida delivers curcumin with a 7-hour half life, and has shown to offer 285x greater bioavailability.
Lipid layer technology
Longvida technology encapsulates curcumin in a protective lipid layer, optimising its journey from pill to cell. Longvida transports curcumin effectively through the acidic environment of the stomach, and then bypasses normal absorption via the circulatory system, instead entering the lymphatic system. This key step bypasses the liver (which rapidly metabolises standard curcumin), and subsequently avoids early excretion by the kidneys. This advanced delivery system achieves 65x higher curcumin plasma levels with sustained effects.
I found a noticeable difference to my energy when taking these. I didn’t think that would be the result given I got the capsules to reduce inflammation, so that’s a nice bonus!

Very happy with Longview curcumin.
This was recommended by a friend who is a nutritional therapist and it has been very effective for me. I would definitely recommend.

Good for heart, brain & joints
Have been taking this for a while now and find it very helpful. Would not want to be without it. A good antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, while also promoting the immune response. The Longvida Optimised curcumin is also said to bypass the hazards of digestion and transport through the body that dietary turmeric is subject to. It being the active constituent of turmeric, which we don't eat enough of in the west, or get enough vitamin D from sunshine either.

Great product
This makes a real and noticeable improvement to everyday aches and pains - particularly noticeable when I ran out and forgot to re-order!
