GreenFood Nutrition Curcuma + Vitamin D3 90 capsules

Curcuma + Vitamin D3 is a dietary supplement containing finely ground powder of turmeric root (Curcuma longa). Turmeric, also known as Indian saffron, is traditionally used in Ayurveda and in China, where it is valued for its rich content of natural compounds. Curcuminoids are the main bioactive constituents of turmeric, which include curcumin, demethoxycurcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin. Essential oils, aromatic compounds that occur naturally in Curcuma longa contribute to the unique aroma and flavor of turmeric. Turmeric contains small amounts of vitamins (e.g. vitamin C, B vitamins) and minerals (e.g. iron, manganese). Vitamin D3, also known as cholecalciferol, is one form of vitamin D that plays a key role in biological processes in the body. Vitamin C is an essential vitamin that plays an important role in many biological functions. It is a water-soluble vitamin that is essential for collagen synthesis and normal immune system function. It also has antioxidant properties that help protect cells from oxidative stress. Piperine is a component of pepper referred to as the black diamond of the East. Piperine is often added to dietary supplements to increase the bioavailability of other active ingredients, such as curcuminoids from turmeric.

Vitamin D3

The vitamin D3 in this product comes from algae. Vitamin D3 from algae is a modern, eco-friendly and vegan-friendly alternative to traditional animal sources of this important vitamin. Its high purity and quality make it an ideal choice for those looking for a safe dietary supplement. Vitamin D3 traditionally comes from animal sources such as lanolin (fat from sheep's wool) or fish oil. However, recently there has been an increasing focus on obtaining vitamin D3 from plant sources, particularly algae. This method of production is suitable for vegans and those looking for alternatives to animal products. The algae used to produce vitamin D3 are specially grown under controlled conditions. These algae are capable of producing a precursor to vitamin D3 called ergosterol. Just as human skin produces vitamin D3 when exposed to sunlight, algae also produce vitamin D3 when exposed to UV light. The process involves exposing the dried algae to UVB radiation, which converts ergosterol into vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). After UV exposure, vitamin D3 is extracted from the algae and undergoes several purification steps to obtain a highly pure product suitable for use in dietary supplements. Growing algae for vitamin D3 production is environmentally friendly and sustainable because it does not require the use of animal resources. Modern manufacturing processes ensure that Vitamin D3 from algae is highly pure and consistent, ensuring a quality end product.
