If you think that’s a glass of orange juice pictured above guess again. It’s a health superstar that’s likely in your spice cupboard.\u00a0TURMERIC is a staple spice in Indian cooking and if you haven\u2019t heard about its extraordinary health benefit read on……<\/span><\/p>\n

TURMERIC has\u00a0ahhh-mazing<\/em>\u00a0YUMMY AGING properties. The active compound curcumin is known to have a wide range of medicinal benefits,\u00a0anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-tumor, anti-bacterial\u00a0AND<\/em>\u00a0anti-virus. What other food can lay claim to that!<\/p>\n

TURMERIC has been proven as an effective treatment for the pain of rheumatoid and osteoarthritis. It aids in cancer prevention, it boosts liver detoxification by assisting enzymes that actively flush out dietary carcinogens. This wonder spice lowers cholesterol and stops platelets from clumping together to form clots. It is beneficial in the prevention of Alzheimer\u2019s and cardiovascular disease and most recently has been used in the treatment of depression.<\/p>\n

TURMERIC\u00a0<\/b>has extraordinary beautifying properties specifically related to how it cleanses the blood. It keeps the red blood cells from clumping, increases circulation and aids in tissue healing. Because it helps increase circulation and promotes better blood flow, turmeric helps make the skin more glowing, supple and healthy looking.<\/p>\n

TURMERIC\u00a0powder is probably in your spice cupboard and can be found in all grocery stores. Fresh turmeric root is available in the produce section of natural food stores.<\/p>\n
