The more I read about this spice the better it sounds, I'm not sure what the taste is like, we used to use it to colour rice with home currys. I'm going to try it in tea as that sounds like a good way to take it. .-= turmeric´s last blog ..Turmeric Health Benefits =-.

I believe there is evidence that piperine (from black pepper) actually aids in absorption of turmeric and its vital health properties. It is also believed to have anti-inflammatory properties. I for one could certainly use more turmeric in my diet that I currently do, and there are literally thousands of south Indian dishes (vegetarian) that use turmeric.

Turmeric purifies the blood and liver. It can be used in combination with olive oil, garlic and tomato juice to force excessive bile from the gall bladder and billary ducts.

check out this recipe for turmeric juice. it's said to cleanse the liver.

tumeric juice a super yummy ayurvedic drink to help your liver, support immune system and is great for keeping a singer’s throat soothed. i first tried this drink at Indus restaurant in Bali, and it blew my mind!!! as soon as we came home i recreated it in my kitchen… Ingredients * 5 pieces of fresh tumeric root, washed * 1 lemon * warm water * 2 tablespoons honey or sweetner of your choice * cold water Preparation put the tumeric root, and the the lemon through your juicer, you can put the pulp back a second and maybe even a third time to get all the goodness out leave the juicer running and pour about 1/2 cup warm water through. mix the honey or sweetner in. if you dont want to use a concentrated sweetner, swap the lemon for an orange (it wont be as medicinal, but it will be sweeter…) top up with 1-2 cups cold water and store in fridge. it keeps for a few days
