What makes JustIngredients so sustainable?

JustIngredients has a wide range of sustainable initiatives that further the brand’s ethical status. The brand only stocks ingredients that have been ethically sourced and is careful to work only with ethically and environmentally approved suppliers. 

It is worth noting that JustIngredient’s turmeric is 100% natural and has not been processed to enhance the amount of curcumin present in this spice. Curcumin is an active compound that naturally occurs in turmeric, and has many health benefits. However, curcumin is most effective and bio-available when it is consumed in its naturally occurring state; consumers should be wary of any brand that tries to sell you pure or ‘enhanced curcumin’ as they may be making false health benefit claims. JustIngredients’ turmeric contains only the amount of curcumin that naturally occurs in this spice!
