Bevisning gates dose: the evidence grade sets the ceiling, and the dose decides how much of that ceiling the product reaches. Value = inverse of price-per-trial-dose-day. Community = mean sentiment of external reviews. Säkerhet caps applied after weighting.

This score is our editorial judgment, not a scientific standard. We combine published evidence, dose, price, transparency, and consumer signals into one composite: this is our method, not a peer-reviewed clinical rating. A higher score means a product does better on the factors we weight, not that it is medically proven to work.

Drug interaction risk — curcumin
Inhibits CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 (moderate effects on CYP2B6, CYP1A2, CYP2D6). Interacts with warfarin and other vitamin K antagonists (elevated INR reported), NSAIDs, antiplatelet agents, antihyperlipidemics, and reduces iron absorption via chelation.

Redaktionellt notes

500mg curcumin paired with BioPerine to counter curcumin's famously poor natural bioavailability, a conventional but sound pairing; price could not be confirmed on the pro storefront due to a page load error.

In plain language

Why this scored this way

This Pure Encapsulations Curcumin 500 with Bioperine scores 5.5, making it below the site average. It delivers 500.0mg of Curcumin (50% of the 1000mg trial dose) with grade B evidence (promising human data, not yet comprehensive). The quality transparency (5.0) is limited by the lack of third-party testing. At $3.40/day it's among the more expensive options in Antioxidant.

What drives the score up

  • Overall score of 5.5 with no single dominant strength.

What drags it down

  • Dose-evidence score of 5.7 is below average for the site.
  • No third-party testing, which caps the quality transparency.
  • Quality transparency of 5.0 is below the site average.
  • Limited consumer feedback (community score: 6.0).
  • At $3.40/day it's on the expensive side.

Why you'd choose it

  • You want Curcumin from a Pure Encapsulations product.

Why you might skip it

  • You want third-party verified purity.
  • You want a product with a publicly available CoA.
  • You want a cheaper option (this is $3.40/day).
