100% Soy-Free Meriva
It was decided to get the choline from the sunflower instead of the usual soy so that everyone can use it. Thorne uses only the purest and most advanced manufacturing methods to create products that even the most sensitive of us can use. Unlike many other manufacturers Thorne does not use magnesium stearate in its production. Almost everyone responds well to Thorne's Curcuma.
Patented Curcuma: Meriva-SF
Meriva-SF is a unique and patented curcumin product. People in Asia have used this root for health for centuries. In addition, it is also the most commonly used ingredient in curry.
Sustained Release
By using the time-sorb® system, Thorne has created a product that is not only strong but also has the chance to have an effect longer in the body. Unlike many other products, this one stays active for a lot longer. The patented Time-Sorb consists of vegetable cellulose derivatives with a high and low viscosity.
Superior Absorption
Usually, curcumin is poorly absorbed when taken as a supplement. By using the phytosome technology, this problem has been solved. Scientific research shows that curcumin is much better absorbed when it is linked to phosphatidylcholine. Thorne's Meriva-SF contains this form exclusively.
Same product without sustained release.
Patented ingredients
Meriva® is a patented ingredient of Indena S.p.A. (Milan, Italy).
