Turmeric For Pets Vs. Curcumin For Pets - What's The Difference?
Are turmeric and curcumin the same? Not really. Curcumin is the prized compound found in turmeric. Curcumin is a powerful antioxidant that reduces inflammation and improves mobility. According to the National Cancer Institute, it is important to consider that certain materials (such as turmeric, turmeric extracts, curcuminoid-enriched materials) often referred to as curcumin, are not identical to the pure, single-chemical entity. Adding a little turmeric spice powder to a pet's diet will not have the same effect as using a curcumin supplement. A half teaspoon of turmeric (a lot to give to a pet due to the strong smell and flavor) contains about 15 mg of curcumin vs one capsule of Ask Ariel's Curcumin Complex for Pets that contains 400 mg.
How Curcumin Can Help Your Dog Or Cat:
- Curcumin Helps Relieves Arthritis Pain & Improves Mobility
Curcumin is the best natural anti-inflammatory for dogs and cats. Curcumin helps pets that are slowing down, having difficulty getting up or showing signs of stiffness or joint pain. It helps to improve mobility, reduce swelling and provides pain relief for pets. Researchers recently published a study* that compared the effectiveness of curcumin versus ibuprofen when used to treat arthritis pain. Curcumin performed just as well as the ibuprofen.
Curcumin works well as a complementary therapy for cats and dogs that have been prescribed NSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) such as meloxicam or Rimadyl. Long-term use of NSAIDs can pose a potential risk of liver or kidney damage. By using a turmeric supplement for dogs along with NSAIDs, you may be able to reduce the amount of medication your pet needs. The results from a recent study published in Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology** show that curcumin provides anti-inflammatory support for arthritis treatment in dogs. Curcumin for Pets is helpful for dogs with hip and elbow dysplasia, torn ACL ligaments and other injuries.

- Curcumin Targets Cancer Cells
According to doctors at the Mayo Clinic, a leading medical research institute, scientific research suggests that curcumin may prevent cancer, slow the spread of cancer, increase the effectiveness of chemotherapy and protect healthy cells during radiation therapy.* Curcumin is one of the most extensively researched natural supplements for cancer.
Research** shows that curcumin, the primary polyphenol compound in turmeric, targets cancer stem cells while not harming normal stem cells. Stem cells divide and renew, helping to repair and replace damaged cells in the body. Stem cells are constantly dividing. Cancer stem cells fuel tumor growth. Since Curcumin selectively targets and destroys cancer stem cells, it is an excellent complement to cancer treatments prescribed by your vet or veterinary oncologist.

- Curcumin Helps Reduce Inflammation
Inflammation can affect a pet's health in many ways. Digestive diseases, like IBD or acid reflux, can result from chronic intestinal and GI inflammation that gets worse over time. Food and environmental allergies cause inflammation to the skin, mucous membranes and respiratory system. Other conditions such as kidney disease and all types of cancer show a remarkable amount of inflammation. Several trials and research studies have demonstrated the efficacy of curcumin as an anti-inflammatory agent.
One study* found curcumin to be effective when treating inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colitis. Another clinical review** shows a possible therapeutic effect of curcumin on respiratory, allergic, and immunologic disorders due to its anti-inflammatory properties.

**Reference: BioFactors. December 2021. Curcuma longa and curcumin affect respiratory and allergic disorders, experimental and clinical evidence: A comprehensive and updated review.
- Provides Powerful Antioxidant Protection
Curcumin is a potent antioxidant* that can help to limit free radical damage and boost your pet's immune system. Antioxidants scavenge for free radicals and reduce cell damage caused by oxidation. This can slow down aging, degeneration and lessen inflammation in your pet's body.
*Reference: Adv Exp Med Biol. Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of curcumin. 2007;595:105-25.
What Makes Curcumin For Pets the Best Turmeric Supplement For Dogs and Cats?
- Complex of All Three Curcuminoids for Maximum Effectiveness
Curcumin Complex for Pets is a patented, unique composition of three bioactive, health-promoting curcuminoids for dogs and cats: curcumin, bisdemethoxycurcumin and demethoxycurcumin. These are the strongest, most protective and best-researched constituents of the herb turmeric. Multiple studies show that this scientifically extracted combination not only scavenges and neutralizes harmful existing free radicals, but it also prevents their formation in the first place. These antioxidants are proven to protect and strengthen vulnerable organs such as the liver and heart. In addition, these curcuminoids for dogs and cats are powerful natural tools to better control and diminish inflammation.
- Veterinarian-Recommended Natural Anti-Inflammatory for Dogs & Cats
Curcumin (turmeric) shows excellent safety in clinical studies. Curcumin has been demonstrated to be safe in many human trials and has demonstrated anti-inflammatory activity. Excessive inflammation is a common risk factor for disease occurrence and progression. Inflammation may lead to lack of mobility, pain, achiness, joint stiffness, cancer, brain degenerative conditions and other pet health issues. Curcumin/turmeric for cats or dogs has been helpful in reducing inflammation, whether acute or chronic, caused by physical injury, joint wear and tear (as in osteoarthritis) and inflammatory conditions such as hip or elbow dysplasia.
- Most Bioavailable Form for Optimal Absorption
Curcumin for Pets is especially bioavailable (pets can get the most benefit) because sunflower lecithin acts as an emulsifier to improve absorption. This is why Curcumin for Pets is more beneficial for pets than just sprinkling turmeric spice on your pet's food. Since our curcumin is so highly bioavailable, your dog or cat needs only a small amount. Our cost-effective capsules are a 3-4 month supply for small pets. Combining curcumin with omega 3 fatty acids, such as Amazing Omegas, can also help to increase absorption.

Beau
"Beau is a seven-year-old chihuahua and rat terrier mix around 15 pounds. He is in great health but with a tad bit of stiffness when he is very active which is so much better with these products. Curcumin complex and Arthrosoothe are the best joint supplements I’ve ever used for my furbabies and the only ones I️ trust. Thank you for these great products!"

The Three Amigos -- Molly Ben Kayla
“Right now all of our pets are doing really well. They're happy and full of energy with shiny coats which I totally attribute to your nutrition guidance - good foods and supplements. My dogs use several of your products: Kayla (Belgium shepherd) has a sensitive stomach so I give her K9 Digestive Enzymes and Power Probiotic. Ben (Golden retriever-10 yrs old) has a bad hip from an accident when he was a puppy so he takes Amazing ArthoSoothe and Curcumin Complex. Molly (Schnauzer-12 yrs old) has skin issues so she gets Power Probiotic and K9 Yeast Defense. Obviously, as you can see, we are very satisfied Ask Ariel customers!"

12 year old Sprocket is Still Going Strong
|
"When she was four years old, Sprocket was diagnosed with Microvascular Liver Dysplasia which was not correctable through surgery, and we were told she would only live maybe two more years. We were very concerned about how to give her a good quality of life. We wanted to use natural treatments as much as possible and found Ask Ariel. Ask Ariel provided us with a diet suggestion and supplements that have kept Sprocket going strong. It is now 8 years that we have been following this regimen for Sprocket and it has been wonderful to see how well she is doing. The Ask Ariel supplements we have given her for liver support are: Oxicell and Kidney Health (as well as another liver support supplement from the vet), and fish oil. As she got older and started limping, we started her on Curcumin for Pets, Arthrosoothe and Ultra-Flex for her collapsing trachea. Sprocket is feeling well and we are so happy we took this holistic approach. We sincerely believe that Sprocket has the looks and life that she does due to her diet and supplements from Ask Ariel."
UPDATE:
"A few years after we’d been giving Sprocket her supplements from Ask Ariel, Sprocket found, and ate, some rat poison at a ranch. The vet said that her diet helped push it through her system and that no doubt, the supplements that she was taking, helped. Although she did have to take medication for the poison, I am certain that her supplement regimen was helpful in keeping her healthy and safe from the medication. A few months later when she had her liver enzymes tested, after the results came in, her vet said: 'If I didn’t know otherwise, I would say that this is a normal healthy dog.' You can only imagine our relief and happiness at hearing that news, and we have Ask Ariel to thank for helping Sprocket live a healthy life."

"Tango continues to be completely PAIN FREE while on Curcumin , ArthroSoothe and Amazing Omegas without any episodes of nerve pain. Thank you so much!!!"

Willow
"Willow had her follow up scan and bloodwork today......4 months after surgery and diagnosis. I’m so overwhelmed with gratitude and emotion I couldn’t wait to email you. Her ALT level is normal! Her ALKP is barely elevated! Most importantly......the growth that was on the underside of the liver that was inoperable, is gone!!!!! They did multiple scans in all different ways trying to find the tumor and it’s not there. They looked at everything on her and nothing. Everything is perfectly normal and healthy and the doctors said that if they didn’t know the history they would have questioned why they were even examining her. She acts like a puppy and is so happy and energetic we almost can’t believe it. Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are an absolute angel from God."

Bleu
"Our dog Bleu is 8 years old and very active. Recently, we noticed he was really slowing down, seemed stiff and overall less agile. He stopped jumping on our bed and seemed to be much less spry. He also had an episode where he was crying out about his neck following a day of playing with his friends. We gave Bleu Amazing ArthroSoothe and noticed improvement within a few days (He already was using the Amazing Omegas which has helped his coat and allergies tremendously). But, then upon adding the Curcumin--wow--what a difference in energy. Our bouncy boy Bleu is back! We have heard similar stories about cats with inflamed, swollen limbs. We hope your pet will show the bounce and energy that we have experienced."

Julie
"To all of you at Ask Ariel,
Thank you for the amazing supplements you provide. We see a tremendous improvement in the lives of all our cats and dogs! They have more energy and are far healthier. Subsequently, we spend a lot less time at the veterinary office. With your supplements, we are looking forward to having our babies with us for many more years! The picture attached is of my Lab mix Julie. Just shy of her 3rd birthday, she was diagnosed with epilepsy. The day after the test came back we went online to email you guys about her condition. We bought everything that was recommended and a year later we've been seizure-free and have seen a remarkable improvement in her attitude and energy. She is taking her Dog Brain Booster, Purrfect Pet CoQ10, Curcumin, EFA oils, and probiotics daily. She is only 3 years old and is the sweetest girl! Thank you for giving me many more healthy years with her!"

Product FAQs
What is a natural anti-inflammatory for dogs and cats?
Curcuma longa (turmeric) contains over two dozen anti-inflammatory compounds that reduce inflammation and relieve the pain and stiffness associated with arthritis. In human research studies, turmeric supplements that contain at least 20% curcuminoids are just as effective as ibuprofen. Look for a natural anti-inflammatory supplement that contains concentrated and bioavailable curcuminoids for maximum absorption and effectiveness.
What is golden paste for dogs and cats?
Golden paste is commonly used for dogs and cats to help alleviate pain and inflammation. Golden paste is made from turmeric and coconut oil. The amount of active curcuminoids in turmeric spice is quite low, offering only a minimal benefit. Curcumin supplements for pets can offer a much higher concentration of anti-inflammatory compounds.
Are turmeric and curcumin the same?
Curcumin is the prized compound found in the turmeric root. It has amazing anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Turmeric, turmeric extracts and curcuminoid-enriched materials all have different levels of pure curcumin. Adding a teaspoon of turmeric to your dog or cat’s food will not have the same effect as using a potent pet-friendly supplement.
What is the best way to give curcumin to my dog or cat?
Curcumin is not well absorbed by the digestive tract so administering it with a meal can improve absorption. Curcumin is fat soluble, so it absorbs better if your pet ingests it along with fats such as coconut oil or Omega 3 fatty acids. Also, when choosing a curcumin supplement for your dog or cat, look for one that contains an emulsifier such as sunflower lecithin to improve absorption. This increases the effectiveness for your pet and provides you with the maximum value for your purchase.
