NCT05542394

Brief Summary

This pilot study aims to investigate the pharmacokinetics of a novel curcuminoid preparation with suggested high bioavailability due to its solubility in water, compared to two standard hydrophobic formulations. The findings of this study will help the health care providers and community to select suitable formulation.
