Turmeric extracts are often labeled with a curcuminoid percentage, like the 95% figure on one of CartiVex's two turmeric ingredients. Here's what that means.
Curcuminoids are the group of naturally-occurring compounds in turmeric root, including curcumin, that most turmeric research focuses on.
When an extract is standardized to "95% curcuminoids," it means the manufacturer has processed the extract to guarantee that concentration, rather than leaving it to vary naturally as it would in raw turmeric root.
CartiVex pairs this 95% curcuminoid extract with a separate, less concentrated 4:1 whole-root extract, combining a standardized curcuminoid source with a broader root-extract profile.
