BenefitsNot only savory, if taken orally or eaten, turmeric is anti-inflammatory, helps digestion and arthritis, supports cognitive health, and is an immunity booster! Did we mention that it aids in wound healing, cleanses the liver, and helps control type 2 diabetes? Oh yeah, and promotes weight management. The list definitely goes on and on. UsesHow can we use this miracle root? Any local pharmacy or grocer will provide a variety supplement options. According to experts, the best supplement on shelves ranges from the affordable Nature Made Turmeric Extra Strength and Sundown Naturals Turmeric Curcumin capsules to the pricier Throne Research Meriva SF. But because this blog is geared to the average Millennial, the Nature Made and Sundown are the best for the struggling buck. In a drink, consider mixing it in a milk blend, tea, detox drink, smoothie, or, since it's still summer, concoct a lemonade! Have fun with it! There's no right or wrong way to consume turmeric. In a body or face wash, lotions, or face masks, turmeric has wonderful effects for those who suffer from hyperpigmentation, acne, psoriasis, and eczema. Turmeric also calms dry skin due to its natural hydrating and soothing properties like curcumin, as well as reducing the appearance of stretch marks! Side note: Never leave turmeric on too long when using as a mask. It can stain your skin. All of this healing marvel is because of turmeric's anti-inflammatory and antioxidant components.
