7 POWERFUL TURMERIC HEALTH BENEFITS Turmeric is an ancient root used for its healing properties for centuries. Turmeric comes from the rhizome (rootstock) of the Curcuma longa plant. The roots of the plant are boiled, dried and then ground into a powder. Traditionally used in Chinese and Indian folk medicine, turmeric benefts are amazing and able to treat a wide range of illnesses. The powerful anti-inflammatory and antiseptic qualities of turmeric have made it a precious commodity for ages! With a peppery, warm and bitter flavor, the mild fragrance of turmeric resembles orange and ginger, which makes it a national favorite in curry dishes dating back centuries. The key to turmeric’s healing power is the chemical compound curcumin. TOP 7 PROVEN TURMERIC HEALTH BENEFITS 1/ CHRONIC INFLAMMATION AND PAIN: Curcumin is among the most potent anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative agents in the world. This means turmeric not only has great promise with chronic pain, but since it has less side effects, it may provide safe, lasting results! 2/ RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS: Due to its high anti-inflammatory properties, turmeric is highly effective at helping people manage rheumatoid arthritis (RA). 3/ DEPRESSION: Curcumin has the ability to manage depression, it is not only as effective as Prozac in managing depression, it doesn’t carry with it all the dangerous side effects as anti-depressive drugs do. Recent studies provide rst clinical evidence that curcumin may be used as an effective and safe modality for treatment in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). 4/ DIABETES: Turmeric is shown to lower blood glucose levels and reverse insulin resistance. Curcumin suppresses glucose production in the liver. Turmeric acted as an anti-diabetic and antioxidant in diabetes, especially type 1 diabetes, improved metabolic function and reduced the risk of plaque buildup in the arteries of type 2 diabetes patients. 5/ CANCER: Recent studies show turmeric is a powerful adversary to cancer. Curcumin shows a marked ability to inhibit cancer cell growth, boost antioxidant levels and the immune system, and kill cancer cells. It seems to work on improving mitochondrial function at a cellular level, and it improves metabolism. Even against drug-resistant strains of leukemia, curcumin caused cell death of cancer cells. 6/ SKIN AND AGING: Turmeric has many healing properties for skin. It’s a natural anti-inflammatory so it reduces redness or other skin irritations. It’s antibacterial, so it’s great for blemishes, acne and skin balance. Turmeric is wonderful at improving the texture of the skin because it is an exfoliant but also rich in antioxidants. It’s a wonderful natural treatment inside and out! 7/ BRAIN HEALTH AND MEMORY: By taking turmeric, you can improve the oxygen intake of the brain, which helps in all of the brain’s functions and processes. Turmeric is extremely healing for the brain and for increasing memory function. Not surprisingly, when your brain functions at its best, then you increase the uptake of hormones, such as serotonin and melatonin. HOW TO USE FRESH ROOTS OF TURMERIC - SOME IDEAS 1/ GRATE ON DISHES: Use a pinch of turmeric in scrambled eggs, Sprinkle turmeric into sautéed or braised greens like kale, collards, and cabbage. Add it to rice. A dash of turmeric brings color and mild flavor to a pot of plain rice or a fancier risotto. 2/ USE IN SOUPS: A bowl of vegetable or chicken soup feels even more warming when it’s tinged with golden turmeric. 3/ MIX IN DRINKS: Add a fresh turmeric root into a carrot juice or any kind of smoothie. Blend a fresh turmeric root, mix it with honey and add some black pepper to reinforce the absorption of curcumin. You will take one spoon of this mixture every morning, it is the strongest natural antibiotic.  And many more...

Cultivated in the Kingdom of Cambodia our gourmet pepper is known to be the best in the world. Certified organic by Ecocert France. From January, the ripe bunches are harvested by hand. They are then seeded, washed and sun-dried for 2 to 3 days. The Kampot black pepper develops strong and delicate aromas. Its taste is very intense and mild at the same time, with hints of eucalyptus and fresh mint. It complements grilled meats and fish perfectly. It is best not to cook pepper. Instead it should be milled freshly on the plate.
