Get to the root of your aches
SPRING’S here and, lockdown permitting, it’s the time when we want to get out and enjoy life, whether simply strolling in the sunshine or doing something more active. Yet, now more than ever, our joints can be giving us problems, grown stiff by the lack of exercise over winter – and fallen into disrepair by lack of use due to having nowhere to go for the past few months.
As we get older that stiffness can be something we struggle to overcome, or can even turn into osteoarthritis, joint inflammation and curtailed movement that only gets worse over time.
The answer is something that combines the tradition of centuries with the science of the present. Curcumin – which comes from the root of the turmeric plant – has long been important in Indian and Chinese medicine for its powerful anti-inflammatory and pain-soothing powers. Now those powers have been transformed into a modern-day diet supplement that can give our body – not least our joints – a helping hand.
It’s impossible to get enough of the ingredient from the curry spice itself but Bioglan, the leader in the field of supplements, has created two Active Curcumin products.
Bioglan Active Curcumin Immune Support Effervescent comes as dispersible orange-flavoured tablets. The body finds it hard to absorb curcumin but here it is paired with cutting-edge HydroCurc for enhanced absorption. It’s high strength, containing 85 per cent curcuminoids, the effective compound in the turmeric plant. There’s also vitamin C for immune function support, vitamin D for bone and muscle health and copper for healthy connective tissue – an all-round bonus for health.
Even stronger are Active Curcumin Tablets (95 per cent curcuminoids), a force for helping the management of inflammatory responses in the body – and they contain the groundbreaking black pepper extract BioPerine which dramatically increases the absorption rate. Bioglan Active Curcumin also contains copper, vitamin C and vitamin D.
Whether suffering from an inflammation problem, joints or otherwise, or trying to keep any possibility of trouble at bay, Bioglan Active Curcumin is the place to start.
