As a health and nutrition expert, I often recommend incorporating turmeric into one's diet for its numerous health benefits, which include its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Here's how you can
drink turmeric:
1. Golden Milk: This is a popular way to consume turmeric. You can make it by heating a cup of milk (dairy or plant-based), adding a teaspoon of turmeric powder, a pinch of black pepper (to enhance absorption), and sweetening it with honey if desired. Some people also add a spoon of coconut oil for extra health benefits.
2. Turmeric Tea: Steep a teaspoon of turmeric powder in a cup of hot water for about 10 minutes, then strain and enjoy. You can add a bit of lemon juice and honey to improve the taste.
3. Smoothies: Add a teaspoon of turmeric to your favorite smoothie recipe for a nutritional boost.
4. Turmeric Shots: Mix a teaspoon of turmeric powder with a bit of water to make a paste, then add it to a glass of water or juice for a concentrated dose.
5. In Recipes: Turmeric can be added to various recipes, such as curries, soups, and stews, to give them a vibrant color and healthful properties.
Remember, turmeric is potent, so it's best to start with small amounts and work your way up. Also, it's advisable to consult with a healthcare provider before making significant changes to your diet, especially if you're taking medications or have health concerns.
