"Little curcumin, when eaten, is absorbed-- 2 grams of curcumin alone resulted in undetectable to very low serum levels.[6] Co-supplementation with 20 mg of piperine (extracted from black pepper) significantly increased the absorption of curcumin by 2000%[6]. However, due to its effects on drug metabolism, piperine should be taken cautiously (if at all) by individuals taking other medications"
