It has been used in India for centuries, but now its popular worldwide for its medicinal properties.

My mother-in-law was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, a form of blood cancer in 2017 and she's been taking turmeric since the first day. It helped and supported her chemotherapy treatment with a lesser side-affects and positive results in her health. When turmeric mixed with spices then it helps in absorption of curcumin in the body, thus it is really important to take it black pepper. 

A healing mixture of turmeric and spices combined with warm milk, which is thought to harness the anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric to battle colds, cough and congestion. It is best brewed with milk and very relaxing before bed time.

Cosy up to a mug of this magical herb remedy, if you need a boost in the winter season.
