Bring a little sunshine into your day with this brilliant gold, warming drink. The vibrant gold colour of the beautiful spice turmeric is due to the bioactive ingredient curcumin. Curcumin has many health benefits, including strong anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. The curcumin in turmeric is better absorbed when heated and consumed with fat and black pepper.
Brain Food Note
Curcumin can lift your mood, reduce stress and anxiety, and help protect against brain-related degenerative disorders. Partner with the healthy fats, potassium, and magnesium from coconut milk to further combat stress and soothe the mind.
