Turmeric without piperine: 95% waste
Turmeric (curcumin) is one of the most researched anti-inflammatories in the world. But your body absorbs less than 5% of it. The rest disappears before it can work.
The bioavailability problem
Curcumin undergoes rapid glucuronidation in the intestines and liver. The result: almost everything is converted into inactive metabolites before it reaches your bloodstream.
The solution: piperine from black pepper
The study by Shoba et al. (1998) showed that piperine inhibits glucuronidation and increases the bioavailability of curcumin by 2,000%. Twenty times more active curcumin in your blood.
The ideal triple formula
- Ginger — gingerols inhibit gingembre-sucre-explication-2026">NF-κB and COX-2
- Turmeric — curcumin inhibits COX-2, LOX and NF-κB
- Black pepper — piperine ×20 curcumin absorption
And crucially: no added sugar. Sugar activates NF-κB and counteracts anti-inflammation.
INTI combines all three in a Belgian organic shot with zero grams of added sugar.
