Biosomo Liposomal Curcumin
CURCUMIN, derived from Curcuma longa (also known as turmeric), is a golden colored spice widely used in the indian subcontinent for healthcare and vitality. With longstanding use as part of Ayurvedic medicine since 1900 BC, Curcuma longa was used with many therapies to help alleviate and heal various diseases. Extensive research in recent years has shown anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-viral, anti-bacterial and even anti-cancer properties. Curcumin is therefore a mighty tool that can impact many disease states. Curcumin, found in turmeric, can fight chronic inflammation linked to diseases like cancer, Alzheimer's, and heart conditions. Its antioxidant properties protect against free radical damage that can cause aging and disease.
Studies show curcumin can enhance mood, memory, and attention. It's also beneficial for joint health, alleviating osteoarthritis pain and improving function. For heart health, curcumin can lower bad cholesterol, blood sugar, and blood pressure.
Curcumin can play a role in cancer treatment, affecting its growth and resistance, and work as a 'photosensitizer' in light and oxygen-based cancer therapies. It may also help manage metabolic diseases like type 2 diabetes and obesity by improving insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism.
However, curcumin absorption is poor in most supplements, that is why the Biosomo liposomal curcumin brings new efficiency and effects with its greatly enhanced absorption.
Curcumin is generally safe but may cause mild side effects like nausea or headaches in high doses. Those with turmeric allergies, gallbladder issues, or on certain medications should consult a doctor before use.

PROFESSIONAL LIPOSOMES AND HOW THEY WORK
n the 1960s LIPOSOMES were discovered by Alec D. Bangham at the Babraham Institute, University of Cambridge. Since then, liposomes have been extensively studied and constitute a substantial and cutting-edge field of research. Liposomes are valued for their biological and technological advantages and are considered to be the most successful drug-carrier system known to date. They are typically well-tolerated, and their morphology and chemical composition are very similar to that of cellular membranes. Liposomes consist of lipid bilayers surrounding or encapsulating an aqueous compartment.
- Liposomes improve the solubility of different substances
- Liposomes protect the active substance from gastric acid and degradation
- Liposomes improve uptake into the bloodstream via our gastrointestinal tract
- Liposomes improve uptake in human cells
- Liposomes increase the bioavailability of the active substances
Derived from the spice turmeric, curcumin has a host of health benefits, like fighting inflammation and cancer. One way it helps fight cancer is through a process called photodynamic therapy (PDT). In PDT, curcumin absorbs light, creating harmful molecules that damage cancer cells and can cause them to die. Studies show curcumin can make cancer treatments more effective by reducing side effects, improving patients' life quality, lengthening survival, and lowering tumor markers. It also influences how cancer grows and resists treatment. Some notable studies include:
- A study by Kazantzis et al. found that one derivative of curcumin was particularly effective at damaging cancer cells when exposed to light.
- A review of 22 trials by Mansouri et al. confirmed curcumin's effectiveness in enhancing cancer treatment for various types of cancer.
- Another Kazantzis et al. study showed that liposomal curcumin was more effective than regular curcumin in breast cancer cells, causing more cell deaths and reducing cell movement.
