A moderate dose of standardized curcuminoids without an absorption enhancer, at a somewhat higher price.
Nature's Answer Turmeric-3 contains 200mg of Turmeric Rhizome Extract standardized to Curcuminoids. This is a positive, as it specifies the active compound. The 'Turmeric-3' might refer to the three main curcuminoids (curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, bisdemethoxycurcumin) which is standard for extracts. However, 200mg is a relatively lower dose compared to many other standardized products, and there is no explicit bioavailability enhancer like black pepper extract. The price per serving at $0.29 is on the higher side for this dose without absorption enhancement. While Nature's Answer is a respected brand known for liquid extracts and herbal supplements, for dry turmeric, the absence of an absorption aid at this price point is a drawback for maximizing benefits as advised by nutritionists.
- Contains standardized curcuminoids, ensuring active compound presence.
- From a reputable herbal supplement brand.
- 200mg is a lower dose of curcuminoids compared to many effective alternatives.
- Lacks a bioavailability enhancer (e.g., piperine), limiting absorption.
- Higher price per serving for the given dose and lack of enhancement.

Categories
Turmeric 65.0
A decent standardized turmeric product, but it does not stand out among alternatives due to its moderate dose and lack of advanced absorption features, especially given its price point.
Goals
General Health 65.0
The standardized curcuminoids provide general health support through antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, but the moderate dose and lack of absorption enhancement limit its overall impact.
Joint Health 65.0
With 200mg of curcuminoids, it offers some anti-inflammatory support for joint health, but a higher dose or enhanced absorption would be more effective for significant relief.
Anti-Inflammatory Support 65.0
As a primary benefit, it provides anti-inflammatory support due to the curcuminoids, but its efficacy is constrained by the moderate dose and the absence of a bioavailability enhancer.
