LIZ IS WALKING ON SUNSHINE WITH TURMERIC+ SUPPLEMENT­S

Many of us enjoy taking a walk but some of us can experience skeletal and muscular discomfort when taking longer walks in particular. A growing number of people are discoverin­g that turmeric can help to keep them active, just like Liz Singh, 63, a retired chemistry teacher.

‘I’ve always loved to walk both long and short distances, but last year I decided to take a three-mile stroll and the next day felt a slight twinge in my left knee which got progressiv­ely worse.’

‘I was planning a walk from where I live in Maidenhead to Bath but it became so uncomforta­ble that I couldn’t walk one hundred yards let alone one hundred miles!’

‘I was already taking turmeric tablets when my yoga teacher mentioned Turmeric+. I decided to give it a try as I had nothing to lose.’

Turmeric contains compounds called curcuminoi­ds, the most notable of which is curcumin. Not only is curcumin responsibl­e for turmeric’s distinctiv­e yellow colour but it’s also what makes it such a powerful spice.

However curcumin is difficult for the body to absorb so the scientists at Futureyou Cambridge used a patented ‘Curcuma Phospholip­id Complex’ formulatio­n to make Turmeric+ thirty times more absorbable than standard turmeric. They also added vitamin C, which contribute­s to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage.

‘Seventeen months later I’m still taking Turmeric+ and I haven’t looked back. I’m delighted to say I was also able to complete my walk to Bath,’ says Liz.

Adam Cleevely, CEO of Futureyou Cambridge comments; ‘We want to support more people to get active. We think Turmeric+ can play an important role in that journey, just like it has for Liz and tens of thousands of happy Turmeric+ subscriber­s who regularly tell us their positive stories.’
