Turmeric has been part of Indian kitchens and Ayurveda for millennia. But getting the most from it as a daily supplement comes down to a few practical details. Here's the honest, simple version.
How much, and how often
A common approach is a daily serving taken consistently rather than occasionally. Our Turmeric Capsules provide 1000 mg per serving (two capsules) of pure turmeric — taken once a day with a meal for most people. As with most herbs, the benefit comes from regular use over time, not from a single large dose.*
The absorption trick worth knowing
Turmeric's active compounds (curcuminoids) aren't easily absorbed on their own. Two simple things help:
- Take it with a meal that contains some fat — curcuminoids are fat-soluble.
- Pair it with black pepper — a compound in pepper called piperine is widely used to support absorption.
This is why traditional Indian cooking almost always combines turmeric with oil and pepper. It's not a coincidence — it's centuries of practical wisdom.
Timing
There's no single "right" time. Many people take turmeric with their largest meal of the day simply because it's easy to remember and pairs with food. Pick a time you'll stick to — consistency beats perfect timing.
What turmeric is good for
People most often take turmeric to support joint comfort and everyday mobility, and for general antioxidant support.* It's one of the most studied culinary herbs in the world and a cornerstone of daily Ayurvedic wellness.
Keep it clean
We make turmeric the way we make everything: single-herb, 1000 mg per serving, vegan, non-GMO, and free from artificial additives — crafted in organic, GMP-certified facilities. No filler, no mystery blend.
