What to Look for in a High–Quality Curcumin ~ So what should you look for when buying this vital herb for your pet?

This 4-Point Quality Test contains important aspects to look for when buying a high-quality curcumin formula. Use this as a checklist before you purchase a curcumin product for your pet.

Your pet’s curcumin formula should:

1. Utilize advanced technology to increase bioavailability.
Curcumin can be highly challenging for your pet’s body to absorb, so a formula offering increased bioavailability is a must.

2. Provide all three of the curcuminoids found in turmeric.
Curcumin is the main curcuminoid in turmeric, but it's not the only one. The other two are valuable for your pet's health: demethoxycurcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin. Having all three curcuminoids is critical, as new research shows that bisdemethoxycurcumin is only activated when the other two curcumin levels (demethoxycurcumin and curcumin) are high.

3. Be sourced from raw organic turmeric material standardized to curcuminoids.
Don’t be shortchanged by lesser-quality curcumin. Always look for a standardized curcumin content and curcumin sourced from Certified Organic turmeric.

4. Avoid unnecessary fillers, additives and risky excipients.
Your pet doesn't need questionable, unnecessary ingredients.

Dr. Joseph Mercola founded Mercola.com in 1997 as a portal for natural health information and resources. It is one of the first health websites established to cater to readers who are interested in holistic medicine.

Around 2007, Dr Mercola wanted to develop and produce a comprehensive natural health product line for pets. For a little over two years, he searched to bring on a holistic veterinarian who shared the same principles and philosophies on natural health that he has. In November of 2009, he reached out to Dr. Karen Becker. Dr Mercola was impressed with Dr Karen’s 20 years of veterinary experience, plus the research of creating protocols for pet products that integrated human-grade ingredients. So with like-minded mission and purpose, Dr. Mercola Healthy Pets was born. Our canine, feline, and even some other of our pet companions can be treated with some of the same heath regimens as humans, with supplements like probiotics and vitamin B just to name a couple, to take control of their health.
