• Curcuminoids: This is the most significant bioactive compound in turmeric, particularly Erode turmeric, which is known for its high curcumin content. While not a standard "nutritional value," it's crucial:

  • Total Curcuminoids: Varies widely, but Erode turmeric often ranges from 3-7% (or even higher in select varieties/extracts). Curcumin itself is usually the most abundant, followed by demethoxycurcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin.

Important Considerations:

• Erode Turmeric Quality: Erode is renowned for its high curcumin content, which is the primary reason for many of its health benefits.

• Processing: The method of drying and grinding can influence the retention of certain volatile compounds and some heat-sensitive vitamins, but the core mineral and fiber content remains stable.

• "As per journals": These values are averages. Individual journal articles might present slightly different figures depending on the specific sample tested, analytical methods used, and environmental factors during cultivation.
