Why is KURK different?
KURK is our unique formulation that combines the world's best adaptogenic plants within a delicious drink.
The hero in KURK is curcumin—a compound that makes up only around 2% of the turmeric root. This potent and biologically-active compound has been a celebrated botanical in Ayurvedic traditions for centuries.
Historically, the body's absorption of curcumin has been limited, which has reduced its full potential. But with KURK, that’s no longer the case—with increased absorption, we've unlocked it's full power.
Curcumin is a crystal
Noted for its vibrant yellow-orange colour, the curcumin crystal is a moderately hard structure, and is insoluble in water—making absorption very difficult.

We have made curcumin micelles
KURK uses plant-based ingredients to create micelles that surround the hard crystal.
This allows the curcumin to mix effortlessly with water, solving the core problem of insolubility.
This advanced design is what makes our formula up to 185x more absorbable than standard curcumin powders.
