Description
Organic Turmeric like most of nature’s spices is full of good benefits to you as part of a natural diet
The root of the organic turmeric plant is used, dried and crushed into 3-6mm granules to produce a lovely burnt orange colour if the turmeric is pure it will not have been extracted - the colour and properties are extracted, the turmeric root is dried and ground - this is the cheap nasty versions on offer
Granules require to be simmered or left in hot water to extract the flavour and colouring
Our Organic Turmeric is only sourced from farmers who respect nature’s bounty and leave all the goodness behind
In recent research the health benefits from experiments comes from consuming the spice naturally, not in pill form! It is also beneficial to use with black pepper as this will allow the body to absorb more of the turmeric goodness
