Native curcumin, a powerful polyphenol from turmeric, is severely limited in its therapeutic use by poor aqueous solubility and minimal bioavailability, with one study showing less than 50 ng/mL reaching the bloodstream even at high oral doses. Curcumin nanoformulations offer a solution by encapsulating curcumin in nanocarriers, dramatically improving its solubility, stability, and therapeutic efficacy.
