Kurk was founded by two friends: a medical doctor at the forefront of the emerging field of plant sciences and a high-performance martial arts coach. Both cancer survivors, Kurk is the result of their exceptional professional and personal journeys.
Their combined experience—and extraordinary recoveries—led to an interest in plant-based supplements and the role curcumin can play in supporting our health and happiness. After 4 years of extensive research and development, Kurk was born.
Our founders Dr Harry & Trent
Now joined by an unparalleled team of doctors, fitness experts, wellness professionals, and food scientists, the founders of Kurk are using science to unlock nature’s power—and optimise your health.
