World’s first Turmeric Oral Spray launched in UK

Harnessing the healing properties of turmeric with superior absorption, the world’s first Turmeric Oral Spray is now available in the UK.

Developed by health pioneers BetterYou, this innovative oral spray was recently named ‘Best New Health and Nutrition Product’ at the Natural and Organic Awards 2017 and is proven to be 4.5x more effective than digestive absorption (tablets, capsules and drops)[i]

Using the science of molecular encapsulation, BetterYou’s Turmeric Oral Spray guarantees superior absorption to tablets, through its unique delivery mechanism which bypasses the digestive system (a well-documented absorption issue for curcumin).

The unique formulation uses Cyclodextrin Encapsulation to increase bioavailability, improve taste and reduce staining. This process ensures the turmeric remains soluble and offers a greater uptake of the three active curcuminoids, delivering it directly into the bloodstream via the soft tissue in the mouth.

Using natural ingredients, the orange flavoured formulation is suitable for vegetarians, diabetics and coeliac, and is safe to use during pregnancy.

There is growing evidence of numerous health benefits of Turmeric including anti-inflammatory properties and a high antioxidant capacity that helps to reduce radical damage in the body.

Andrew Thomas, founder and managing director of BetterYou said: “We are excited to reveal this ground breaking development to our oral spray range, particularly with it being a ‘world first’.

“Turmeric is not water soluble and therefore has poor bioavailability, with studies showing as low as one per cent absorption from the gut.

“Our Turmeric Oral Spray delivers superior absorption by enhancing solubility and bypassing the digestive system, guaranteeing unbeatable uptake of active curcuminoids through a simple yet effective daily oral spray.”

BetterYou’s range of vitamin oral sprays represent a new dimension in convenient and effective supplementation, boasting partnership in a growing number of absorption trials including a three-year clinical study with the University of Sheffield.

BetterYou is proud to deliver pioneering alternatives to tablets and capsules ensuring superior absorption - guaranteed.

Turmeric Oral Spray will be available to purchase at www.betteryou.com from June 2017, RRP £17.95.
