How does Turmeric Butter work chemically?

This material is usually a mixture of triglyceride-rich lipids plus lipophilic botanical constituents, so it behaves more like an anhydrous emollient phase than a single molecule. It is typically heat-compatible in oil phases but should be protected from prolonged high heat, light, and oxygen to help preserve color and oxidation-sensitive components.
