When life took an unexpected turn with a cancer diagnosis, Trent turned to his best friend—and medical expert—Dr. Harry. Together, they immersed themselves in research and development focused on plant science, with the goal of optimising Trent’s recovery.
During this journey, they discovered the powerful benefits of Curcumin and wrote the business plan for Kurk after Trent’s third round of chemotherapy.
Driven by necessity and guided by science, they developed Kurk—a revolutionary formula utilising Micelle technology, making it the first of its kind to ensure optimal Curcumin absorption without harmful fillers.
Today, Kurk is not just a supplement; it’s a lifeline for thousands. From reducing inflammation and supporting cardiovascular health to boosting immune systems, Kurk is transforming lives every day.
Our Scientific Director, and co-founder, Dr. Harrison Weisinger—known to us as Dr. Harry—has an impressive and diverse background in medicine, having practiced in the UK, Australia, Europe, and the United States.
Before earning his medical degree, Dr. Harry completed a Master’s and Ph.D., focusing on the impact of nutrition on brain development, body weight, and blood pressure.
His career as a family doctor, university professor, and scientist has been dedicated to advancing human health.
Dr. Harry’s commitment to health improvement is deeply personal. From the age of 18, he faced a series of serious health challenges, leading to 30 hospitalisations by the time he turned 40. Diagnosed with Crohn's disease and later Lymphoma—these experiences fuelled his passion for bettering both his own health and that of others.
Remarkably, since turning 40, Dr. Harry’s health has been exceptional, a testament to his relentless pursuit of wellness.
Our CEO, and co-founder, Trent Scanlen, embodies leadership, determination, and tireless dedication.
Growing up in Australia, Trent was immersed in a healthy lifestyle from a young age, spending his days surfing and playing Rugby League. However, during his time in a demanding international corporate role, he lost sight of his health and nutrition.
In 2012, Trent faced a life-altering challenge when he was diagnosed with Lymphoma. It was during this journey that he discovered the powerful benefits of Curcumin. Even as Trent was undergoing chemotherapy, the two co-founders wrote the business plan for what would become Kurk.
Now cancer-free and thriving Trent maintains a vigilant focus on managing inflammation and has committed to helping others do the same.
Curcumin—the active compound in turmeric, is renowned for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, making it a superior choice for pain relief and wellness.
Science reveals that chronic inflammation is at the root of most major diseases, including arthritis, heart disease, and even cancer. Curcumin tackles this head-on by naturally reducing inflammation throughout the body.
However, Curcumin does more than just fight inflammation; it is a potent antioxidant that also supports the immune system, enhances cardiovascular health, and promotes overall well-being.
Despite its health benefits, Curcumin is naturally tough for the body to absorb due to its crystalline structure, which is insoluble in water.
Our revolutionary Micelle technology transforms curcumin’s absorption, enhancing its bioavailability by up to 1000x compared to standard turmeric supplements—giving you maximum health benefits.
