These can occur naturally in certain foods that we eat, such as in propolis, turmeric, and garlic and extracted into supplements. Our antimicrobial supplements are made from natural, food-based ingredients without any added chemicals.
Turmeric
Used in India for centuries as a spice, turmeric contains beneficial compounds called curcuminoids or curcumin which is a strong antioxidant and helps to prevent inflammation. Chronic low-level inflammation plays a part in all kinds of disease like heart disease and cancer.

Curcumin in turmeric can also neutralize free radicals and promote the increase of antioxidant enzyme levels in your body. Furthermore, it is also being studied as a potent method of reducing cancer growth and development at the molecular level.
