5 Health Benefits of Turmeric (Haldi or Curcuma)

Turmeric is one of the oldest and most widely used spice in the Indian kitchen primarily for its health benefits.

1. It has been shown to promote balanced mood when taken as part of a regular diet. So guess, that yellow sunshine color works after all!

 

2. Turmeric mixed with hot milk has been a long standing recipe for reducing body pain in Indian households. Need to get over that taste though...

3. Having diabetes or sugar cravings? This power-food is known to help regulate the blood sugar level. Apple or cupcake?

4. Body feeling stiff? A diet with turmeric can help you get on the right path to avoid or lower the effect of arthritis.

5. Even the most frightful disease...Cancer (certain types) can be prevented through a regular intake of turmeric in your diet.
