Despite Turmeric being around for thousands of years, it's recently become an extremely popular spice in the holistic health community following its remarkable medicinal and healing properties.
This golden spice is closely related to the ginger family and is used in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine as a potent remedy amongst infections and diseases! It's super high in antioxidants and acts as a strong anti-inflammatory traced back to the main compound, curcumin (which gives it that vibrant yellow colour). It helps to detoxify the body by improving liver function and reducing toxicity, and is fabulous for skin - keeping it looking young, healthy and glowing!! If used frequently enough, it can also reduce acne scars!
There are numerous ways you can incorporate turmeric into your diet. I love throwing it into curries, smoothies, baked treats or drinks. However, my favourite method at the moment is sipping on warming turmeric lattes in the morning or evening.
These golden milk lattes are completely caffeine and diary free, so are the perfect health booster! They're super easy to make and the combo of almond milk, cinnamon and a dash of honey creates the sweetest, creamiest cup of sunshine!
