Heart of the Week: Omica Organics Liquid Turmeric

When you think of turmeric, your mind probably begins to imagine an array of toasted Indian spices and a bowl full of bright yellow curry. Yes, turmeric is widely recognized for its earthy taste and distinct color, but did you know that it can do more that just add flavor to a dish? This magical little root has been utilized for its medicinal properties for hundreds of years, and is known to be a powerful remedy for inflammation. Inflammation is a catalyst of many conditions like poor digestion, disease, and joint pain, and turmeric helps to stimulate our immune systems in order to fight off a number of these ailments.

It’s pretty mind blowing to think that this tiny little plant can pack such an incredible punch, but it does! And instead of buying a handful of these little guys at a farmers market, and then juicing or grating them at home, my new favorite way to sneak this incredible superfood into my diet is with Omica Organics Liquid Turmeric CO2 Extract. This blend is a super PURE elixir of health. It’s very high quality and it has a concentrated amount of antioxidants, so you only need a couple of drops to reap the benefits. I like to mix a few drops in my water for an extra boost of immunity! And it would also be a great addition to our Iced Turmeric Milk Latte !!!

And just a quick word to the wise...the bright color stains… wearing white shirts is not highly recommended…So be careful!
