Turmeric. You may have heard claims that it is one of the “world’s healthiest foods” and that it has amazing anti-inflammatory properties. Did you know that you’ve probably been eating it since you were a child? Curcumin, the pigment that gives turmeric its bright yellow color, is an ingredient of the mustard you likely smeared on your hot dogs and hamburgers in the past.

Turmeric has been used in Indian cooking and medicine for hundreds of years and is a key ingredient in most curries. More recent research shows that it also has antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-aging, anti-Alzheimer’s, liver detox (the list goes on . . .) benefits.

TIPS FOR MAKING WARM GOLDEN MILK

1. In a small saucepan, gently heat milk of your choice with honey and optional coconut oil over medium heat. Stir occasionally and bring to the point where it is almost boiling, with small bubbles forming around the edge of the pan.
2. Remove from the heat and whisk in the spices until well blended. Let stand for a few minutes, then strain through a fine-mesh strainer, if desired.
3. Add a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper (to enhance the curcumin in turmeric), stir and enjoy!

SAVE TIME AND MAKE AN OUTSIZED BATCH OF SPICE MIX!

Who has time to open all those little jars and measure these ingredients? Not me. Especially within the middle of the night!

After the primary time I made this, i made a decision that when was enough, so I made an enormous batch and stored it during a small Mason jar . Now I just add a teaspoon of the powdered spice mix to my warm milk and honey. If you've got fresh ginger or fresh turmeric (and time) the flavour is certainly heightened, so choose it.

Remember to feature the black pepper just before serving. Pepper works hand in hand with curcumin, increasing your body’s ability to soak up it.

Make a commitment to incorporate turmeric in your diet. Your body will many thanks .
