My jar, purchased awhile ago, has a slightly different label that does not include that statement. The ingredients listed: organic turmeric powder. If you're concerned, I'd call or check the company website.

Yes, it doesn't contain curcuminoids. You should look for a supplement that has the c3 complex in it, as it has 95% curcuminoids.

If I had to guess, I would expect that this has to do with the refinement of the Tumeric itself down to a percentage of purity of Curcumin. Take gold or silver for example, 24 Carat Gold is almost "Pure" and so is .999 Silver. But it's as close as they can get it.

You won't notice anything but a placebo effect from this product. It only contains a little turmeric, which only contains less than 5% curcumin. Find a product that contains high amounts of curcumin instead. Most reviews on this product are fake.

The jar doesn't state concentration. Perhaps you can research it on manufacture website.

Total Curcuminoids 665 mg* from 700 mg of Standardized Turmeric Root Extract. Remember that ground turmeric root only cotains 3% to 5% Total Curcuminoids, as some other pills just give 450 mg of ground turmeric root with only 50 mg Turmeric Root Extract which is a lot less. A 20 lb bag of ground turmeric root only runs $22.

BCM-95 is actually made by Arjuna Naturals and is available in other brands as well. The "liposomal" issue relates to the issue of poor absorption of plain curcumin. It was speculated that the lower rate of Alzheimer's in India is due to curcumin in the diet, but what would make it absorbed better so as to account for this result? It was thought that the answer was the way it was prepared....using oil. So, Arjuna created and tested BCM-95, which proved to be much better absorbed. Here is what they say about it: "BCM-95 combines curcumin with high essential turmeric oils and thus makes it 7 times more bioavailable and 12 hours of retention in blood compared to 95% curcumin extracts. Mainly because of the fact of high absorption, the product has been taken by many prestigious universities worldwide for various clinical trials. " So "liposomal" means "with lipids", and lipids are fats and oils. So, BCM-95 uses curcumin oils. Other "liposomal" preparations may use other oils where the curcumin and oils are heated and mixed. Some people use lecithin plus oil to make their own, but I don't know how effective this is. I know another approach to the problem is the conjugating the curcumin with fenugreek, called CurQFen. Both result in better absorption and a timed release effect. In any case, if you focus on the issue of absorption rather than the terminology, I think you won't go wrong.

It is simply natural tumeric in gel capsules, it contains the same tumeric you can find in a grocery store spice rack. That said, natural tumeric contains about 2% curcumin by weight. If you are looking for curcumiin, you want a 95% curcumin extract (45x more curcumin than this product),

Don't know the percentage. It's midway down in the ingredients. I will say the combination of ingredients are soothing and healing.
