Curcumin is the naturally occurring compound that gives turmeric its distinctive golden-yellow colour — and it's

also the compound most closely studied for turmeric's traditional health associations.

Why concentration varies

Not all turmeric contains the same amount of curcumin. The concentration depends heavily on the specific variety

grown, the soil it's grown in, and how it's processed after harvest — which is exactly why region-specific, GI-tagged

turmeric commands a different quality bracket than a generic blend.

How we test for it

Every processing batch at Agrreen is lab-checked for curcumin content before packaging, and that result is recorded

against that specific batch — not estimated once for an entire season's stock.

Note: Individual results from consuming turmeric can vary by health, lifestyle, and usage pattern — see our
