HERBAL SUPPORT HAS BEEN AROUND FOR CENTURIES
For thousands of years, health practitioners have used a variety of herbal therapies to naturally heal and support the body. The use of herbs can be traced back to millions of years, after anthropologists discovered eight different species of herbs in the remains of a Neanderthal man found in an Iraqi cave in 1960.1 Ancient Chinese, Egyptian, African and Native American cultures all used herbal therapy to heal or develop medical practices that are still used today.2 It is the oldest form of medicine known to man. Recently, the World Health Organization estimated that 80% of people worldwide rely on herbal medicines for some part of their primary health care.3
Benefits of Turmeric
Turmeric has a long-standing history of providing all-natural herbal benefits to the body. It has traditionally been used in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine as an anti-inflammatory agent to treat digestive and liver problems, skin diseases, and wounds.4 Turmeric is composed primarily of curcumin. Curcumin is one of three main curcuminoids (curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin), which are powerful phenolic compounds and the sources of turmeric’s many benefits, its antioxidant properties, and its unique color.5 Antioxidants have become essential to one’s nutrition; helping the body combat free radicals by safely neutralizing them and preventing and reducing damage caused to cells.*
Unfortunately, as the popularity of turmeric and other herbal supplements has grown, the quality of herbal products has declined. Now, many curcumin products are made using synthetic curcumin made from phytochemicals that don’t deliver the true benefits that curcumin is known for. Making sure that you are obtaining pure curcumin from an organic source will help deliver turmeric’s antioxidant and herbal benefits.*
Now, Youngevity has added a new, high- quality turmeric product to it’s ProLine collection, Pürmeric™!

What sets Pürmeric™ apart?
Many botanical supplements sold on the market today come from non-organic sources, depleting them of their nutrient capacity. Though turmeric is a distinguished healing herb, synthetic knockoffs have made it difficult to find high-quality supplements that provide the herbal support consumers seek.
Organic botanicals typically have more phytonutrients, which are highly nutritious substances found within plants. Common phytonutrients include flavonoids, carotenoids, and sulfides. These powerful compounds give fruits and vegetables their vibrant colors and may help to promote good health.1 6 Organic produce, like turmeric, is believed to have a greater positive impact on the body, when compared to non-organic produce. The rich diversity of phytonutrients found in organic crops may contribute to optimal health and wellness.2
What truly sets Pürmeric™ apart from other herbal supplements is the superior natural profile that can only be found from organically sourced turmeric. Pürmeric™ may supply greater health benefits due to its organic compounds. Unlike most herbal supplements, Pürmeric™ delivers 95% curcuminoids in an enhanced organic capsule that is more capable of being absorbed by the body. Organic botanicals typically have more phytonutrients than non-organic botanicals, and may be more beneficial to the body.*
