The Science Behind these carefully crafted ginger and turmeric power shots:
Curcumin bioavailability refers to how effectively the active compound curcumin (from turmeric) is absorbed into the bloodstream, distributed to tissues, and utilised by the body. Despite its potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and other health benefits, curcumin has naturally low bioavailability - typically less than 1% when taken alone.
In our ginger-turmeric shots, the olive oil aids fat-soluble transport, while cayenne pepper provides a capsaicin boost (milder than black pepper’s piperine but still helpful for absorption and adding a metabolic kick). This natural formulation helps maximise curcumin’s anti-inflammatory and health-promoting effects without synthetic additives.
Gingerol bioavailability refers to how effectively the primary active compound in ginger - 6-gingerol (along with related forms like 8- and 10-gingerol) - is absorbed into the bloodstream and utilised by the body. Gingerol offers anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, digestive, and metabolic benefits, but its natural bioavailability is generally low (often <5% in humans from standard ginger extracts).
In our shots, the olive oil supports fat-soluble transport of gingerol, while cayenne pepper aids gut absorption and provides a capsaicin kick - together helping maximise gingerol’s anti-inflammatory, digestive, and energy-boosting potential without additives. Fresh cold-pressed formats preserve more native gingerols than heated/dried versions, further supporting efficacy.
