Extract the Potential
It all began with a divine connection to turmeric. Backed by science, turmeric contains the active compound curcumin that’s scientifically proven to act effectively as both an antioxidant and an anti-inflammatory.
That connection rooted Moonshine Mama's mission to activate and share the healing powers of nature’s ingredients to make these elixirs fully absorbable and to extract the potential contained within for the benefit of your health and well-being.
More Super Than a Supplement
Simply swallowing a capsule won’t do the trick. To get the full range of curcumin’s benefits, Moonshine Mama's activates their turmeric-based products with ingredients like black pepper, lemon and coconut oil. This process takes your absorption up to 2000%, allowing you to easily receive the immune-boosting, energizing, health benefits your body wants and needs.
