What Is BCM-95® Curcumin? A Plain-English Guide to the Ingredient in DailyRoot
At a Glance
BCM-95® (also known as Curcugreen®) is a patented, 100% natural turmeric extract manufactured by Arjuna Natural Pvt. Ltd. It is standardised to 95% total curcuminoid complex and combined with naturally occurring turmeric essential oils (ar-turmerone). Unlike isolated curcumin, BCM-95® retains the full-spectrum oil matrix of the turmeric rhizome. DailyRoot contains 1,000 mg of BCM-95® per serving as declared on our Supplement Facts panel.
The Composition of BCM-95®
Curcumin is the primary active compound in the turmeric (Curcuma longa) rhizome. Raw turmeric root contains approximately 2–5% curcuminoids by weight. Standard curcumin extract presents absorption challenges due to curcumin's inherently low water solubility.
BCM-95® addresses this by reconstituting purified curcuminoids (95%) with naturally extracted turmeric essential oils (86% ar-turmerone). This preserves the full-spectrum oil matrix of the rhizome and remains 100% plant-derived — no synthetic carriers, no piperine dependency for its primary mechanism.
Standard Curcumin Extract
95% Curcuminoids
Purified curcumin removed from the native rhizome matrix. Widely available but presents absorption challenges without additional formulation support.
BCM-95® Curcumin Extract
95% Curcuminoids + Essential Oils
Curcuminoids reconstituted with naturally occurring ar-turmerone essential oils from the turmeric rhizome. Full-spectrum. 100% plant-derived. Clinically studied.
Understanding the 7X Bioavailability Research
Bioavailability refers to the rate and extent to which an active compound enters systemic circulation. In a peer-reviewed human clinical study published in the Indian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences (Antony et al., 2008), researchers compared the oral bioavailability of BCM-95® against standard 95% curcumin extract in a crossover design.
The study demonstrated that BCM-95® exhibited approximately 6.93 times (referred to as ~7x) greater relative bioavailability compared to standard curcumin extract under controlled conditions.
Proper clinical context — important to understand
This 7x figure compares BCM-95® specifically against standard, unformulated 95% curcumin extract in that study's conditions. It does not mean BCM-95® is 7x more effective than all turmeric products, whole root preparations, or other patented formulations. BCM-95® has 60+ published studies including 45+ human clinical trials supporting its research profile.
