BCM-95 is a proprietary combination of curcuminoids and essential oil of turmeric-ar-turmerone, ensuring a high level of bioavailability of curcumin. The formulation is all-natural, from simple ingredients, and holds 13 international patents. It has been extensively researched in 33 clinical studies by universities throughout the US, Japan , Australia , and India , backing its efficacy for multiple health indications.
According to Innova market Insights a +45% growth has been reported for new products with a "turmeric content" claim (Europe , 2016 vs. 2015) and +17% growth for new product launches with a turmeric content claim (U.S., 2016 vs.2015).
In 2016, BCM-95 was granted self-affirmed GRAS status (Generally Recognized as Safe) by an expert panel of scientists for use in medical foods at a dose of 500 mg, twice a day. BCM-95 is composed of pure curcuminoids and essential oils from turmeric with a specific content of turmerones. The synergism of its components has been confirmed in a study published April, 2017, in the journal, Scientific Reports, by Shusuke Toden, PhD, et alia, of Baylor University , Dallas, Texas .
"The FDA's latest positive response is a testimony to our unwavering commitment to ensure maximum safety and quality products," says Benny Antony , PhD, Joint Managing Director for Arjuna. "BCM-95 is one of only a few supplements in the nutraceutical industry to receive an FDA 'No Questions' response letter, after previously undergoing safety and quality evaluations."
"It certainly sets a high bar in the marketplace, and our customers can leverage their curcumin supplements to gain more market share," says P.J. Kunjachan , Chairman and Managing Director for Arjuna. "Consumers deserve clean and safe curcumin, wholly from turmeric root, and should not have to compromise with less effective alternatives."
"We recently opened a new, state-of-the-art plant in Coimbatore, India , for producing BCM-95 turmeric extract," adds Antony. "This will triple the curcumin capacity and will help us meet the growing demand for safe, natural curcumin."
