  1. Crossover study (n=9 healthy males) comparing Longvida, NovaSOL, and AOV at ~570mg curcumin: unconjugated plasma curcumin remained below 2nM across all formulations; high fecal recovery for Longvida/AOV vs NovaSOL suggests differing intestinal absorption and first-pass metabolism pathways.

  2. Review of 11 curcumin formulations with human PK data: Longvida (SLCP) demonstrated approximately 100-fold higher bioavailability versus reference unformulated curcumin. Superior solubility and stability attributed to lipid matrix protecting curcumin through digestion. PubMed
