Summary

Recent evidence suggests that curcumin supplementation may reduce muscle inflammation, oxidative markers, and muscle damage. The most favourable dosage to elicit these ergogenic effects are yet to be established; both 750mg \& 1500mg has been shown to be effective. Curcumin supplementation has been ingested in numerous different ways however, no previous research to date has used curcumin in a hydrolysed (drinkable) format. The aim of this study is to investigate whether hydrolysed curcumin can reduce indices of muscle damage and improve recovery, whilst also examining a potential dose-response effect.
