Curcumin · Longvida® · Plant-based
Optimised curcumin, with the micronutrients the evidence supports.
Curcumin is widely used for inflammation, joint support, muscle soreness and cognitive health, but standard curcumin is barely absorbed. Gold Standard Curcumin is Longvida® Optimized Curcumin®, a solid lipid curcumin particle with 285x greater bioavailability, formulated by Dr. Conor Kerley with 13 essential micronutrients.
As a person living with MS and asthma, I take Gold Standard Curcumin every day.

Who this is for
Curcumin is one of the three curcuminoids in turmeric and the most bioactive. Free-form curcumin is the active kind, not the inactive metabolites most of it is broken down into. Many supplements use standard curcumin or plain turmeric and deliver very little of it. Gold Standard Curcumin is built around Longvida® Optimized Curcumin®, a patent-protected, clinically documented solid lipid curcumin particle, and adds 13 micronutrients with authorised roles in the areas people take curcumin for.
One capsule a day. Gluten-free, plant-based, non-GMO, with no fillers, binders, bulking agents or preservatives.
How to take it
One capsule a day
Take one capsule daily with food. 90 capsules is a three month supply.
No black pepper
Longvida® does not need piperine to be absorbed, so there is no black pepper extract in the capsule.
Plant-based capsule
Vegan capsule shell, gluten-free, non-GMO. No fillers, binders or preservatives.
Give it 12 weeks
The human curcumin trials typically run 8 to 12 weeks of daily use. Consistency matters more than timing.
The science
Turmeric's curcuminoids are very poorly absorbed and rapidly metabolised into inactive forms, so most of what you swallow never reaches your bloodstream in a usable state. Longvida® Solid Lipid Curcumin Particle technology seals curcumin in a protective lipid layer. It is highly stable through the harsh environment of the stomach, highly soluble, and absorbed through the lymphatic system, which bypasses the liver and avoids early excretion. What arrives is free-form curcumin, the active form, delivered to tissues throughout the body. That is where the 285x greater bioavailability comes from. Dr. Kerley's reviews of the human curcumin research, condition by condition, are on the blog.
