Hi! I’m wondering if there is a supplement form of aromatic-turmerone and whether or not it is like curcumin in that it is better delivered via phytosome or liposome methods. Or is phytosomal curcumin enough? Am I just misunderstanding what turmerone(s) are(s)?
In this study tumerone was injected to brain but other studies translate to 5-6 grams per day. However, this was administered without piperine, which increases bioavailability of curcumin (and likely tumerone) by 2000%. That would suggest that 300mg-1000mg may be a decent range but I’m looking for more studies to confirm.
@janine Yes! This paper is awesome! The tumerone was able to increase the neural stem cell population by 45%. That is robust and similar to what some neurotropic growth factors can do. I’m really excited about this data!
Thanks for looking to reach out! I try to reply to every single email I get (really!), but sometimes it takes a little while or some messages just fall through the cracks, usually by accident.

How well does this translate to oral turmeric intake?

Thank you for all your hard work!
Are there any studies showing bioavailbility of curcumin or turmerone and weather they pass the blood brain barrier?
Yes, they do pass the BBB.
Fats also increase the Bioavailibility such as olive oil

Does cooking (boiling) destroy the beneficial compounds found in turmeric?
I have not read any literature that curcumin or tumerone are heat-sensitive.
Then this makes supplementing with turmeric and piperine very easy, and delicious :) In fact, I used to do it unknowingly dozens of times before.
mmmmm…curry…
