Turmeric, also known as the Golden Spice of India and has many health and beautifying benefits.

Benefits of Turmeric:

• Fights body-wide inflammation
• Helps to reduce and prevent arthritis
• Protect and regenerate brain cells
• Preventing and helping with Alzheimer's Disease.
• Supports joint & muscle health
• Boosts detoxification
• Supports cardiovascular function

Turmeric is a good source of Vitamin C and Magnesium, and a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Vitamin B6, Iron, Potassium and Manganese.

What to do with fresh Turmeric Root:

• Like ginger, after peeling and grating turmeric, the pulp can be squeezed to produce juice (put it through a juicer for an easier time getting larger quantities). Use that liquid in salad dressings, bread dough, or your morning juice or smoothie.
• It can be thinly sliced or chopped into tiny matchsticks for a lively addition to green salads, potato salads, and slwas.
• Use fresh turmeric in quinoa, lentil, rice, and other grain dishes.
• Sliced, it can be added to soups or pickled.
• Fresh turmeric pairs well with egg and tofu dishes.
• Use grated turmeric in marinades.
• Make turmeric tea with grated turmeric, honey, and freshly grated black pepper. (You’ll often see turmeric paired with black pepper, as it helps with the absorption of the turmeric.)
