Does anyone know of a supplier of micronized curcumin powder?  Not micellar curcumin, but curcumin milled to a low micron size?

Life Extension is a bit mysterious about their Super Bio-Curcumin, but it is piperine free, and according to LE has dramatically improved absorption so I assume it is micronized.

 They claim absorption is increased by 7x (BCM-95). BCM-95 looks micronized also from other sources:

 

Colloidal submicron-particle curcumin exhibits high absorption efficiency-a double-blind, 3-way crossover study.

http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/25994138

 

"...To evaluate the absorption efficiency of three types of DDS curcumin, we performed a double-blind, 3-way crossover study. We compared plasma curcumin levels after the administration of Theracurmin and 2 other capsule types of curcumin with DDS, BCM-95 (micronized curcumin with turmeric essential oils) and Meriva (curcumin-phospholipid)..." (bold mine)

Thanks for the replies. I am looking for a micronized curcumin powder without any added absorption enhancers. I've found micronized resveratrol, but the curcumin products all have added ingredients. My goal is to find micronized curcumin powder, preferably less than 3 microns, to make an injectable suspension.
