CURCUMIN

Curcumin is a vibrant and biologically active yellow substance found in turmeric, a spice produced by plants of the Curcuma longa species. It is known for its anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-oxidant properties. The remarkable healing properties of Curcumin have been utilised in traditional medicine for centuries.

 

With innovation in nanotechnology, several scientific studies have reported on the efficacy of microencapsulated curcumin as a therapeutic agent. Microencapsulation is a process commonly utilised in pharmacology and consists of refinement processes that see bioactive compounds incorporated within or coated onto the matrix of a safe carrier material. This process protects the active compound for effective delivery, which can significantly improve its bioavailability, allowing maximum therapeutic benefit. PerioGold Gel utilises microencapsulated curcumin complex in its formulation to ensure the maximum beneficial effect is achieved.
