Curcumin (diferuloylmethane) is the major polyphenolic pigment extracted from the rhizome of turmeric (Curcuma longa, the yellow in Indian curry), molecular weight 368 Da.

Turmeric root contains three curcuminoids:

Curcumin (~77%) — the lead characterDemethoxycurcumin (~17%)Bisdemethoxycurcumin (~3%)
But turmeric root itself is only 3–5% curcuminoids total — which is why 'eat curry to load up on curcumin' is dose-wise unrealistic: one teaspoon of turmeric powder (~5 g) delivers only 150–250 mg of curcuminoids, while clinically effective doses are 500–1500 mg/day.
