Is this turmeric the same curcumin?

Yes. This is the fresh version of turmeric. Turmeric contains curcumin. It resembles ginger root, but is smaller and orange.

I know it is yellow ginger sometimes turmeric or curcumin (curcuma longa) sorry it took so long

Turmeric root contains curcumin. If you are looking for the health benefits of curcumin, the root should be cooked or try a dissolution in oil to increase the bioavailability. It is also thought that mixing black pepper with the turmeric increases the bioavailability of the curcumin.

Curcumin is the active compound , and for that matter, miracle; that makes turmeric what we know it. The curcumin contains volatile oil. This oil gives turmeric the unique smell and power to do what AMA and big Pharma never wished would happen. Search "Turmeric" on the internet to discover. Most importantly; start using it, in it's fresh state, then soon you will live the benefits of this nature given medicinal spice.

Hi, well first I would like to mention that I am not an expert on this subject. From what I understand Curcumin is a substance in turmeric. I used turmeric combined with a few other things as a natural way to fight a nasal infection I could not get rid of, worked great may have even help with my allergies totally not effected this year.

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.

Yes, exactly the same. Longvida only sells to a few distibuters, and they are the only source for this stuff. Basically as long as you can find Longvida curcumin, get the cheapest you can find.

I found no information on the Amazon site about whether this curcumin product is gluten-free. However, I have used about three bottles of it, and I'm highly gluten-intolerant and suffered no ill-effects.

The Curcumin is not Organic and it is Non-GMO! Hope this answers your questions.

From reading the label it appears that it is a registered trademark for the blend of turmeric rhizome extract and phosphatidylcholine which are the "active ingredients" of the capsule. I've been using this brand since Jan. with mild to moderate improvement of my psoriatic arthritis. I stopped using methotrexate (with Dr's consultation) and after 3 months symptoms returned and this brand of turmeric was not sufficient as the only treatment. Have resumed prescription for Meth. and am doing very well again. (Seems to be better than with methotrexate alone.)

500mg of Curcumin C3 - complex turmeric standardized extract. 475mg of which of 95% are actually curcuminoids 2.5mg are something called bio perine - black pepper extract for superior absorption. Also the capsule is vegetarian (plant cellulose) All of the above is written on the bottle. Hope this helps!

I'm pretty sure they are the same, however the company has put out a new smaller capsule that I believe the owner told me was for women. The ingredients are identical on the label though, aren't they. It works just fine for me.

The description on the bottle says each capsule contains 500 mg of "Meriva® Complex (proprietary blend of turmeric rhizone extract and phosphatidylcholine)" plus other ingredients including gelatin. It doesn't have the word "standardized." But since it has the registered trademark, it has the standardized version that was used in the studies involving Meriva®. Hope that helps.

Organic Turmeric rhizome 370 mg; Turmeric Extract - 95% curcumimoids 80 mg; Organic Ginger rhizome 50 mg per 1 capsule. Good quality turmeric, enjoy. Namaste!

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

No. Just turmeric is listed as sole ingredient. If there were MSG or preservatives, trust me , I would not buy it. This is a product from India.

It is tumeric, which contains curcumin. I don't know about Goldenseal...pretty sure it is a totally different plant.

All turmeric comes from India as far as I know. However, the differences will be with powdered turmeric, to which dyes can be added easily. 100% real turmeric will have a dull yellow colour. If it is a bright yellow colour, then it has additives. I do not know about lead in turmeric. Best to get whole turmeric root and grind it dwon yourself, or get and organic type that is USDA certified and which is routinely tested by the company for impurities, etc.
