When to take it, how much to take, and what to expect.

4 min read

Whether it’s aching joints, a struggling immune system, or just feeling a little “off,” Liposomal Curcumin is one of those supplements that will benefit pretty much everyone in some way. It’s vastly known for its inflammation-fighting, joint-soothing, and immune-boosting properties and we’ve seen the results in our clients who take it on a regular basis. But sometimes it’s hard to know where to start, and if that’s where you’re at - you’re in the right place.

Figuring out how much to take and when to take it doesn’t have to be complicated. Let’s break it down into bite-sized pieces so you can get the most out of this all-rounder.

What Exactly Is Curcumin?

Think of curcumin as the “magic ingredient” in turmeric, it’s the bright yellow spice you probably recognize from curries. Curcumin is what makes turmeric so special, with benefits ranging from calming inflammation to supporting your immune system. However, it’s not super easy for your body to absorb, so a curry a day won’t do the trick (if only!). This is where the liposomal delivery system comes in with our Liposomal Curcumin supplement. It's like a high-tech version encased in tiny fat bubbles that protect it as it moves through your digestive system and ensure you absorb as much of it as possible.

Signs You Might Need Liposomal Curcumin

You know those days when your body just doesn’t feel like it used to? That’s where this supplement can help:

  • If aches and pains are slowing you down: Curcumin is a natural alternative to over-the-counter pain relief; it supports your joints and keeps you moving without unwanted side effects.
  • If you’re constantly fighting off colds or feeling run-down: It helps boost your immune system so it’s easier to power through hectic schedules, seasonal sniffles, or stress.
  • If soreness or stiffness gets in the way of life: Whether it’s from tough workouts, stressful days, or just wear and tear, curcumin manages inflammation to make the daily grind a little easier on both your body and mind.
  • If you want to feel sharper and happier: By reducing inflammation, curcumin can help clear out that brain fog to help you feel sharper and lift your mood. Because let’s face it, when you feel good, life is just better.

How Much Should You Take?

Since Liposomal Curcumin is more efficiently absorbed, lower doses are typically effective:

  • 250–500 mg per day may suffice for general health (5-10 pumps)
  • 500–1,000 mg per day is usually recommended for inflammation or immune support. (10-20 pumps)

Based on the maintenance dose for general health, we recommend taking one dose which is 10 pumps daily and provides 550 mg of Liposomal Curcumin. This amount is ideal for supporting overall inflammation balance and antioxidant protection.

How to Tell If You Need More

Listen to your body. If you’re still experiencing discomfort or stiffness after a week or two at 10 pumps a day, you may benefit from increasing your dose. If you're using it for more specific needs, like managing chronic inflammation or joint discomfort, you might consider increasing the dosage gradually to 20 pumps, but only as needed.

  • Feeling Fine? Stick with 10 pumps daily for maintenance.
  • Still Achy? Gradually increase by 2–3 pumps per day and reassess after a week. We recommend getting in touch with us on Facebook for a 1:1 consultation at this point to ensure you’re on the right track.
  • Improving? Stay at the dose where you feel your best and avoid going higher than needed.

When’s the Best Time to Take Liposomal Curcumin?

When you take your dose really depends on your lifestyle and needs. You can take all 10 pumps at once or spread it throughout the day. Here are a few optimal times:

  1. Morning: Kickstart your day with a few pumps to ease any morning joint stiffness and get your immune system pumped up (pun intended!) for the day ahead.
  2. Post-Workout: After exercise. Curcumin can help ease soreness and reduce recovery time.
  3. Evening: If nighttime stiffness or aches bother you, taking a dose before bed can help you rest more comfortably.

What to Expect Over Time

  • Week 1: You’ll notice subtle changes, like less morning stiffness and quicker recovery from exercise.
  • Week 4: Your joints feel smoother and you feel more energetic.
  • Week 8–12: You’ve hit your stride with less aches and pains, a stronger immune system, and a noticeable difference in how you feel day-to-day.
