Biomor Curcumin is an all-natural curcumin supplement that is purported to have significantly higher bioavailability compared to standard turmeric extracts.
Research shows that Biomor Curcumin supplements increase the absorption of bioactive curcuminoids by as much as 800%. Biomor uses a patented manufacturing process and requires a smaller dosage than curcumin supplements with piperine extract.
It is claimed to retain certain beneficial constituents of turmeric rhizomes which are lost in other extract manufacturing processes. These retained plant chemicals enhance the synergy of turmeric’s other natural constituents.
This is said to strongly increase the levels of curcuminoids that make it into the bloodstream, enhancing the potency and efficacy of curcumin supplements. Biomor curcumin is also promoted as being free of stearates, addictive, class-1 solvents and synthetic ingredients.



- Effective anti-inflammatory supplement
- Shown to improve joint functionality
- Anti-oxidant to supper general health
Biomor Curcumin Ingredients
Related Topics
Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a source of curcumin extract, which has long been used in traditional medicine and as a culinary ingredient.
Biomor Curcumin supplements are derived completely from turmeric rhizomes (horizontal rootstocks). They are formulated to a 25:1 rhizome extract standardized to 95% total curcuminoid complex with turmeric rhizome essential oils.
Biomor Curcumin products do not contain vegetable lubricants (stearates), class-1 solvents, ethylene dichloride (EDC), additives, sugar, starch or salt.
Further, they contain no corn, milk, yeast, soy, wheat, gluten, preservatives, artificial colors or artificial flavors. The turmeric used in manufacturing these supplements is non-GMO.
Biomor Curcumin Dosage
Most curcumin supplements have very low bioavailability when taken orally. They are not well-absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract.
As a result, a number of products have come to market designed to enhance the absorption of this extract from the gut. Biomor Curcumin is a unique example of such a product.
Each capsule of Biomor Curcumin provides 500 mg of highly absorbable curcumin extract. The manufacturer states that each capsule is equivalent to as much as 4000 mg of other curcumin extracts standardized to 95%.
One human study concluded that Biomor Curcumin is as much as 800% more bioavailable than other 95% standardized curcumin extracts. It demonstrated both superior absorption and sustainability over 8 hours inside the circulatory system.
Piperine is an extract of black peppercorns and is a known bioenhancer. Some people who want to increase the absorption of curcumin with piperine are concerned about excessive piperine accumulations.
Some health experts warn against more than 15 mg of piperine daily. Each capsule of Biomor Curcumin is said to be equivalent to as much as 3185 mg of 95% curcumin with added black pepper extract (piperine).
In one human crossover study, Biomor Curcumin demonstrated 637% stronger absorption and 8-hour sustainability over 95% crucumin extracts mixed with piperine and lecithin.
Some users state that they save money using Biomor Curcumin instead of other 95% extracts because they do not need to use as much product to gain desired effects.
Biomor Curcumin Benefits
Like ginger, turmeric is a member of the Zingiberaceae botanical family. It is an herbaceous perennial plant that reaches heights of 5 to 6 feet.
Turmeric is indigenous to southern Asian countries and has been used in Chinese, Ayurvedic and certain other medicine systems for many centuries.
Traditional uses for turmeric include decreasing inflammation, treating digestive problems and detoxifying the blood via enhanced hepatic (liver) functioning. It was and is also used to treat skin diseases and facilitate improved wound healing, improve joint functionality, alleviate pain and for certain types of arthritis.
Research shows that turmeric and curcumin demonstrate potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Like other quality curcumin supplements, Biomor Curcumin can help to scavenge radical agents which damage cell membranes and contribute to the development of numerous diseases.
Turmeric and Cancer Research:
Preliminary research suggests that curcumin extracts may have anti-cancer effects. However, it is important to note that turmeric and curcumin are not approved for the prevention or treatment of cancer.
In vitro and animal studies have showed potentials for using curcumin for breast, prostate, skin and colon cancer. Liposomal curcumin demonstrates benefits for pancreatic cancer as well.
The apparent anticancer and chemopreventive effects of curcumin are believed to be due to its antioxidant strengths. Some researchers believe this supplement may have benefits as an adjunct therapy.
However, large-scale human research trials are needed before the efficacy of this supplement can be determined. Initial research results are promising, but should not be relied upon when making medical decisions.
Talk to your oncologist about using Biomor Curcumin supplements in conjunction with prescribed anticancer medications.
Turmeric Extract and Heart disease:
Preliminary research suggests that curcumin may decrease formations of arterial plaque inside the circulatory system.
Atherosclerosis develops when arterial plaque accumulates excessively. Atherosclerosis often progresses into CAD (coronary artery disease); the main cause of heart disease.
In addition to apparently decreasing LDL (bad) cholesterol, curcumin also reduces platelet aggregation.
Biomor Curcumin can potentially affect blood pressure and cardiac performance. If you have been diagnosed with any cardiovascular disease or condition, then talk to your doctor before using any curcumin extract.
Curcumin extracts are being researched for a number of additional medicinal uses. Turmeric and curcumin have been studied for their effects on neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes mellitus, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue and various other conditions.
While some research shows evidence of efficacy for brain health, inflammation, arthritis and joint functionality, not all of the purported uses of this supplement are validated by available research.
Biomor Curcumin Side Effects
Turmeric and curcumin have a good record for safety and tolerability. In most users, no ill effects are experienced.
When side effects occur, they are normally gastrointestinal in nature. The most common are heartburn, diarrhea, bloating, nausea and vomiting.
Curcumin is known to be safe even in high doses over long periods of use. Research shows no toxicity or adverse effects with daily doses as high as 8 grams over 3 months.
One toxicity study on Biomor Curcumin showed that high doses caused no ill effects or toxicity. Results from this study also reported a significant drop in total serum cholesterol.
The manufacturer of Biomor Curcumin (Healthy Source, LLC) warns against usage in conjunction with chemotherapy. This should only be done with supervision from a licensed medical practitioner.
Biomor Curcumin may increase the risk of bleeding. Those with bleeding disorders and/or who use medications that increase bleeding risks should exercise caution with all curcumin products.
You should discontinue use of all dietary supplements at least 2 weeks before scheduled surgeries.
