Longvida ® Curcumin
Longvida® is based on Solid Lipid Curcumin Particle (SLCP™) technology. This consists of a unique combination of highly purified lipids that coat the micronized curcumin particles. This is different from a micelle, as there are lipids other than just lecithin involved. This combination of minute particles is organized in such a way as to increase bioavailability and absorption, and remarkably avoid rapid breakdown.
The Longvida® curcumin technology allows it to deliver absorbable curcumin to targeted areas. This curcumin formulation successfully evades rapid breakdown by the liver and produces Free Form Curcumin, peer-reviewed clinical trials prove this. Longvida is formulated to go through the lymphatic system. Once in the lymph, it is transported directly to the heart. The heart will then pump this newly “enriched blood” to sites of therapeutic activity such as the brain, lungs, tissues, etc. before it returns to the liver where it will eventually undergo metabolism. Longvida® was the first formulation to successfully achieve this world-wide.

Ingredient Benefits
Anti-inflammatory
Turmeric’s success as an anti-inflammatory requires extremely high doses, because it’s insoluble in water and many fats. This means that it has a hard time dissolving, making absorption exceptionally difficult. Longvida® helps the absorption of the curcuminoids, the substance responsible for anti-inflammatory properties.
Antioxidant
Turmeric is the most clinically studied natural substance in the world. With over 4000 publications to date, its proven therapeutic benefits are vast. Studies have confirmed that curcumin has potent antioxidant properties.
Bioavailable and long-lasting
Curcumin is a substance from the turmeric plant, a spice commonly used in curry dishes that has clinically confirmed benefits. The challenge is that it is not easily absorbed, and it breaks down quickly in the body. Longvida® solves that challenge.
Longvida® Optimized Curcumin is not produced using solvents such as ethylene dichloride (EDC) and it does not contain surfactants such as polysorbate 80/Tween 80, nor adulterant such as nimesulide. Although the use of polysorbate 80 is considered acceptable in North America, it is banned or strictly controlled in countries such as Japan, China, Taiwan and Thailand. Longvida® Optimized Curcumin is also free from volatile oil and animal products, it is certified gluten-free, GMO-free and meets or exceeds the highest standards in terms of the presence of heavy metals.
