Ingredient: Healthspan

We are proud to announce that BCM-95® (Curcugreen®) has been named a finalist for the prestigious 2026 NutraIngredients-Asia Awards in the Ingredient of the Year: Healthspan category. This recognition underscores our commitment to scientific excellence and our mission to provide the world with the most effective, research-backed botanical solutions for healthy aging.
Defining the Future of Longevity: A Premier Healthspan Ingredient
As the global population ages, the demand for natural solutions that support “healthspan”—the period of life spent in good health—has never been higher. BCM-95® stands out as a definitive healthspan ingredient, offering a scientifically validated approach to maintaining vitality across multiple physiological systems.
Unlike standard curcumin extracts that rely on synthetic enhancers for absorption, BCM-95® utilizes a patented, 100% turmeric-derived matrix. By combining 95% curcuminoids with 45% ar-turmerone (essential oils of turmeric), it delivers ~7x superior bioavailability and maintains therapeutic blood levels for up to eight hours.
The Science of Ageing Gracefully
Our selection as a finalist is rooted in the unparalleled clinical depth of BCM-95®. With 93 publications, including 46 human clinical trials, BCM-95® is one of the most extensively researched turmeric extracts in the world. Its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) makes it a critical tool for cognitive health, while its proven impact on inflammation control, mobility, and metabolic health addresses the core pillars of the healthspan category.
Key clinical highlights include:
•Superior Bioavailability: Natural synergy without synthetic additives.
•Proven Safety: Clinically validated safety profile up to 3.6 g/day.
•Global Versatility: Powering 200M+ doses across 70+ countries in capsules, gummies, beverages, and cosmetics.
