| Curcumin is the active ingredient in turmeric and responsible for its golden colour, but it is not readily absorbed by the body. Once ingested, most of the curcumin gets quickly metabolized before it can get absorbed. Piperine (the heat in black pepper)helps make curcumin more bio-available as it temporarily slows the liver from removing it from the blood. | Curcumin is the active ingredient in turmeric and responsible for its golden colour, but it is not readily absorbed by the body.
