NSAID Alternatives - CURCUMIN


Tumeric (Curcuma longa) and its main biologically active constituent, a polyphenol called curcumin, have remarkable, multiple health benefits as supported by an extensive body of clinical science.

CLICK HERE to read about the anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic, antioxidative, hepatoprotective, anticholesterol, antithrombotic, immunomodulatory, anticancer, and nootropic and neuroprotective effects of curcumin.

NARCOX™ uses a patented Belgian biotechnology used to extract and cage the curcumin molecules in a natural plant starch, increasing the absorption rate of curcumin by 4000×.

When your muscles or joints are injured, the body induces an enzyme called COX-2 that produces excessive PGE2, a compound which causes inflammation and pain. While other solutions inhibit both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, NARCOX™ inhibits only COX-2. This is important because COX-1 inhibition has been known to cause severe side effects such as cardiovascular problems, strokes and gastrointestinal injuries or bleeding (and erectile dysfunction).
