About KURK

KURK is a bioscience and wellness company founded around a simple question: can natural compounds be developed in a more thoughtful and effective way? Founded by Trent Scanlen and Dr. Harrison “Harry” Weisinger, KURK grew from their shared personal experiences, scientific curiosity, and determination to develop a different approach to natural supplementation.

The story began after Trent experienced a serious health challenge in 2012. During his recovery, he became deeply interested in nutrition, plant science, and the role that natural compounds could play in supporting overall wellbeing. He turned to his longtime friend, Dr. Harry, a medical doctor and scientist with advanced academic training in nutrition and human health, and together they began exploring new possibilities.

Their research led them to curcumin, a naturally occurring compound found in turmeric. While curcumin had attracted significant scientific interest, the founders became particularly interested in one of its fundamental challenges: its limited water solubility and the resulting difficulty of absorption. This became the scientific problem that KURK set out to address.

Over the following six years, the team conducted research and development in its London laboratory, working with doctors and scientists to create a proprietary formulation and micelle technology. The goal was to develop a liquid curcumin product designed around improved bioavailability while retaining a focus on natural ingredients and a convenient daily format.

KURK's approach extends beyond simply creating supplements. The company describes itself as a biotech company that researches, develops, and manufactures its own formulations. Its products are developed through an ongoing “Learning Loop” in which research, manufacturing, and customer feedback inform the company's continuing product development.

Today, KURK's range includes its signature Liquid Curcumin alongside products such as D3+K2 spray and electrolyte tablets. The company continues to develop wellness products around its three core principles: scientific accuracy, high-quality formulation, and clean bioscience.

At the heart of KURK is the belief that natural wellness and modern science can work together. By combining plant-based ingredients, scientific research, proprietary technology, and continuous product development, KURK aims to create convenient wellness products for people who take an active interest in their everyday health and wellbeing.
