The healthful properties of turmeric and ginger are just now beginning to emerge in the West.
Asian cultures have used these herbs for millennia, not only for their flavor but for their medicinal power.
Everyone likes a warm drink on a cold day.
Rather than imbibing on a cup of sugar or caffeine, you can enjoy something that will not only give you that warm, fuzzy feeling but will help your body as well.
Savory Flavor with an Impressive Impact
The rhizomes of turmeric and ginger are used in cooking and teas and as supplements. Turmeric is known for its deep yellow color and is what makes golden milk golden.
A common herb used in curry, turmeric has a little bite to its otherwise rich, metallic taste. The curcumin in turmeric has been shown to reduce blood pressure [1], perform better than Prozac at treating depression, and protect the body from various toxins. It also is an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Sounds very much like a superfood.
