Though I need this daily detox after a summer full of adventures, I’ve been looking for a way to jazz up the morning ritual and discovered that putting turmeric to lemon water not only offers a different taste, but it adds a number of other health miracles, too.
Turmeric is not only what makes mustard and curries yellow, but it’s an incredibly powerful health supplement.
The Indian spice has chemical compounds called curcuminoids, of which curcumin is the most beneficial. Curcumin is an anti-inflammatory agent (helpful for arthritis among many other conditions) and an antioxidant. It also helps the body to absorb other antioxidants.
Curcumin has been shown to benefit cancer patients as it can inhibit the proliferation and survival of almost all types of tumor cells.
Fight with depression and many other health conditions.
Add a bit of turmeric to my lemon water in the morning. Here’s how you can do it.
Ingredients
1/2 of a lemon
1/4 – 1/2 tsp of turmeric
warm water
a dab of honey (optional)
Share and enjoy...
