Overview

•Curcuminoids at 240 mg daily (5 tablets) are safe but may cause mild GI upset; piperine enhances absorption but could amplify effects.
•Low risk for healthy adults at recommended 1-3 tablets (219-657 mg magnesium), but consult physician for kidney issues or medications like antibiotics.
•Not recommended during pregnancy without medical advice due to limited data on high-dose turmeric; suitable for adults over 18.
•No major allergens listed, but verify for sensitivities to Curcuma longa or Piper nigrum.
•Australian TGA approval (AUST L 4227A) indicates quality manufacturing with low contamination risk.

Dosage & Bioavailability
How the active doses and forms in Magnesium + Turmeric compare to the research.
•Heavy magnesium oxide equiv. to Magnesium — 219 mg per serving; within the 100-400 mg/day typically used in studies. The magnesium oxide form is less well absorbed than others. It is within the 250 mg/day upper limit for supplemental magnesium (SCF 2001); the US limit is 350 mg/day (IOM (NIH ODS)). This range is provisional until reviewed.
•Piper nigrum (Black pepper) fruit extract, dry conc. std. equiv. to Piperine — this looks like a raw-herb equivalent rather than the extract amount, so it cannot be compared with studied extract doses.
