In the swim at 83, with turmeric

-

TURMERIC, the golden spice, has been used for thousands of years in Asia, but now it has been catching on with wellness warriors and active people across the UK.

It turns out they’re onto something — more and more people are sticking with turmeric after trying it for themselves.

A leading nutritiona­l supplement company, based in Cambridge, has received a flurry of praise for its Turmeric+ supplement­s thanks to a special formulatio­n that allows more of the active ingredient to get where it is needed.

Curcumin is the active ingredient in turmeric, but unfortunat­ely it is difficult for the body to absorb, meaning that powdered turmeric sold in the supermarke­t isn’t suitable.

The company’s formulatio­n is 30 times more absorbable than standard turmeric, and also contains vitamin C which contribute­s to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage.

The impressive formula was recently certified by InformedSp­ort, the global quality assurance programme and each one of the company’s supplement­s is backed by a scientific advisory board.

The results speak for themselves, with thousands more people signing up for a regular supply in 2019.

Since he started taking the supplement in 2015, Bill Moore has excelled with his incredible exploits as a competitiv­e swimmer.

‘I feel it’s been very beneficial overall and wouldn’t like to stop. It has helped me very much — I know I don’t look or act my age, and I feel a lot better for taking them.’

At 83, Bill is still keeping up his active lifestyle. ‘I won three gold medals in the British Masters Championsh­ips last October in Sheffield. Whenever I win it’s good. Everything’s a bonus in your 80s!’

He also recommends the supplement to friends at the pool. ‘I tell lots of them about it. The vital thing is to exercise as otherwise you stiffen up. Two that I train with take it now.’

To help people find out if it is right for them, the company is offering them their first month’s supply for free.

‘We’re very happy to provide their first pack for free so they can experience it,’ says CEO Adam Cleevely. ‘I can’t think of a better way to convince people. If they like it, they’ll stick with it. Tens of thousands of customers already do.’
