Curcumin Ultra Vegan (60 VCaps)

Curcumin Ultra® Vegan is an absorbable, free-form curcumin for longer lasting effects. Curcumin is a substance from the turmeric plant (Curcuma longa), a spice commonly used in East Asian curry dishes. A substantial number of pre-clinical and human clinical trials have highlighted the health-promoting effects of curcumin, namely its role as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving agent. Biochemical analysis has shown that curcumin is insoluble in water and gastrointestinal fluid, is rapidly metabolized and poorly absorbed by cells, has poor blood brain barrier permeability, and is rapidly eliminated from the body.

All of these factors limit its use as an efficient natural functional agent. As such, the focus has shifted to developing more effective mechanisms of curcumin delivery in order to reap its many therapeutic effects. Curcumin Ultra® Vegan is a unique combination of free-form curcuminoids (CurQfen®) with water-soluble turmeric polysaccharides (Turmacin®). This formulation not only resolves the bioavailability issues of other curcumin products.

AOR Advantage
AOR’s Curcumin Ultra® Vegan is the first product in Canada to combine CurQfen® with Turmacin®. This combination offers absorption and bioavailability, providing the bioactive free-form curcumin.  It is more stable than other available curcumin products and has been shown to circulate in the blood for over 24 hours.

Herbs are powerful. They’ve been used for centuries to nourish, support, and restore the body—but just like any tool for wellness, they should be approached with knowledge, respect, and intention. Before using any herb that’s new to you, we highly encourage you to do your research, ask questions, and—most importantly—consult a certified healthcare practitioner, whether that’s a clinical herbalist, naturopath, or your trusted family doctor. Everyone’s body is different, and what works incredibly for one person may not be the right fit for another.

While we’re passionate about sharing the wisdom of herbal medicine, not all the information on our website has been reviewed by Health Canada or the FDA—which means it’s up to you to take an active role in your health. Learn, explore, and empower yourself. Herbal medicine is about cultivating a relationship with plants, understanding their effects, and using them with reverence, respect, and intention.

Your health is your own, and it is up to you to ensure that you are using plant medicine safely, effectively and knowledgeably. We’re here to support you as you step into that power by supplying high-quality, handcrafted and sustainably sourced herbs and plants.
