Why We Love
Turmeric
Haridra, also known as turmeric, is an important herb in Ayurveda. It is a tall herb with rootstock that is large and ovoid with sessile cylindrical tubers that are orange-colored inside. Haridra has been used for centuries in traditional Indian medicine to treat a variety of ailments such as indigestion, common colds, and liver disorders.
Haridra is very beneficial due to its anti-oxidant properties which enable free circulation of all nutrients and oxygen to every cell. It also helps in immune-modulation by correcting metabolism. The spice can be recognized by its dazzling yellow color and it is often used as a food additive or coloring agent.
Haridra has many therapeutic benefits including being an anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antidiabetic, anthelminthic, hepatoprotective, hypo-lipidemic, antihistaminic and more. It is considered one of the best Ayurveda medicines for treating metabolic disorders like diabetes.
