Golden milk or haldi ka doodh is a warming beverage that dates back to ancient Ayruvedic tradition and was consumed to promote optimal health. You’ve probably heard of the profound health benefits of turmeric, namely it’s constituent curcumin. Curcumin, the phytonutrient responsible for turmeric’s vibrant yellow-orange hue is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammator. Because of these powerful properties, curcumin can benefit multiple body systems and relieve many inflammatory symptoms. It has been shown to support digestion, alleviate pain, aid recovery well as reducing the risk of cancer and diabetes. Research also shows that it supports brain, skin, cardiovascular, and ocular health. The addition of black pepper is critical for ensuring the body absorbs curcumin into the bloodstream as it increases bioavailability by 2,000 percent.
It is important to note that while consuming golden milk is highly beneficial to overall health, we recommend our patients consider supplementing with one of the high quality supplements we have at the clinic.
