Description |
Tetrahydrocurcuminoids
are derived from curcuminoids (extracted from the roots of Curcuma longa, commonly called turmeric root).
This
compound is colorless, unlike the yellow curcuminoids. It could therefore be used in color
free food and cosmetic products that currently employ conventional synthetic antioxidants.
A
set of studies performed by Sabinsa Corporation revealed that the Curcuminoids and
Tetrahydrocurcuminoids (THC) are more potent antioxidants than the commonly used synthetic
antioxidant, Butylated Hydroxytoluene (BHT).
