Supplemental Facts:
A BREAKTHROUGH IN CURCUMIN ABSORPTION
Thorne Research has teamed with Indena S.p.A., the worldwide expert in botanical extract technology, to bring health-care practitioners an exciting new curcumin phytosome called Meriva.

Meriva provides your patients with significantly more bioavailability than any curcumin extract or compound currently available - and Meriva is manufactured to Indena and Thorne high quality standards.

Phytosomes are created by a patented process that binds an herbal extract to phosphatidylcholine, a principal element of cell membranes. This unique phytosome complex easily crosses the gut barrier, unlike common herbal extracts, and results in significantly higher blood levels than standardized 95% curcumin extract.

It is commonly known that when taken orally curcumin is poorly absorbed. Meriva is a highly bioavailable curcumin extract that uses Indena's phytosome technology to significantly increase its absorption.

Phytosomes are a precise linkage of a plant flavonoid molecule with a phospholipid molecule - in this case, phosphatidylcholine. A bond is formed between the two molecules to create a hybrid molecule, providing superior absorption and utilization of the attached botanical extract.
