About
Details
Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, is not water soluble (hydrophobic), and so is hard for our bodies to absorb through traditional digestive routes. Curcuminoids clump together in the gut, making them difficult to pass through the intestines.
Turmeric Oral Spray overcomes turmeric’s hydrophobic nature by extracting the active curcuminoids from the turmeric root.
In a process we have named Cyclocurmin®, we then envelop them in a natural cyclo-dextrin process known as encapsulation, making the curcuminoid molecules water-soluble and preventing them from clumping together. A process taken from the pharmacuetical industry.
These are then emulsified to create an evenly dispersed, water-based solution, for optimal absorption through the soft tissue of the mouth.
Harnessing the power of turmeric has never been easier. BetterYou Turmeric Oral Spray allows everyone to benefit from the full potential of this incredible plant.
All our turmeric is independently tested for heavy metals including, lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury to ensure full compliance and safety.

Importance of Turmeric
Turmeric has long been used in Indian and Chinese medicines. Supplementing turmeric via an oral spray has several benefits:
The benefits at a glance
- Bioavailability – Innovative spray delivery system which skips out the digestive system avoiding the well-documented absorption issues with curcumin.
- Molecular encapsulation – Increases bioavailability through increased water solubility, improves taste and reduces staining.
- Natural ingredients – natural emulsifiers, flavours and sweetener (xylitol). This orange flavoured formulation is suitable for both vegans and vegetarians.

FAQs
Should I take all four sprays together or spread it throughout the day?
This is down to personal preference, either way provides optimal absorption. Though you may find it easier to take them all together to ensure you don’t forget a dose.
The oral sprays do not need to be taken with food or a drink so can be used at your convenience.
Our studies have found that the best place for absorption are on the inside of the cheek. When using multiple sprays we would recommend spraying in this area.
What is the curcumin content in the Turmeric spray?
Four sprays of the Turmeric oral spray contains 26mg of the three active curcuminoids.
These are encapsulated to enhance bioavailability and allow absorption through the buccal membrane of the inner cheek, avoiding the poor absorption issues commonly associated with turmeric and curcumin being processed through the gut.
Will the Turmeric oral spray cause staining?
The encapsulation process we use make the turmeric molecules more bioavailable, as well as reducing staining.
However turmeric is a bright orange spice and staining can still occur, so we recommend avoiding contact with clothes and other surfaces to prevent this problem.
The spray can cause temporary discolouration of the tongue and teeth, though do not worry, this won’t last long. To avoid this, try spraying directly on to the back of inner cheek, near the molars, or use before brushing your teeth.
Can the Turmeric oral spray be used during pregnancy?
No. There is some research that suggests high dose supplements aren’t suitable during pregnancy as they cause the uterus to contract. For this reason, we do not recommend use during pregnancy.
How long will the spray last?
There are 120 sprays in the 25ml bottle. With the recommended daily dosage of four sprays the Turmeric spray will last 30 days.
Is the Turmeric spray suitable for those with special dietary requirements?
The Turmeric spray is suitable for those following a vegetarian and vegan diet. It is also suitable for diabetics and coeliacs.
Is the Turmeric spray suitable for children?
The Turmeric oral spray is perfectly suitable for children aged 3 years and above. For children under 12 years of age we recommend halving the dosage, as their daily supplementation need is lower than that of an adult.
Are there any contraindications with Turmeric oral spray?
There are no interactions with any other products or medications when using the Turmeric spray.
However we always recommend talking to your GP before starting any dietary supplementation if you suffer from a medical condition.
Do I need to take piperine black pepper with the Turmeric spray?
No. While piperine is one technique commonly used to enhance the bioavailability of turmeric, piperine does not solve the fundamental issue of turmeric being highly insoluble.
BetterYou Turmeric spray utilises a technique called cyclodextrin encapsulation, which makes the turmeric molecules highly water soluble, preventing them from clumping together. This enables the molecules to be absorbed through the intraoral membrane and bypass the inefficient digestive absorption.
Do I need to take the spray with food or drink?
No. The oral spray delivery mechanism avoids primary processing by the digestive system, meaning it can be taken at any time of day with or without food. The active ingredients are delivered directly into the bloodstream via the mucosal membranes in the mouth.
