I just started a yoga class and several of the folks complained of bone and joint pain ( this was a class for cancer patients).
The teacher suggested we drink Golden Milk which is made with turmeric. It has antiinflammatory properties. Here is an article and a good video on Golden Milk. This doc in this video also said you can just make the turmeric paste and use it any way you want, in yogurt, smoothies, by the spoonful, etc. I am just starting it....will let you know how it goes. http://www.healthy-holistic-living.com/golden-milk.html My best, D. |

Hi Diandra,
This is quite interesting! I have recently seen this with high-fat coconut milk and gently heated. It's sometimes called "Tumeric Tea." From my notes: 1 cup water or bone broth 1/3-1/2 cup canned coconut milk (high fat coconut milk) 1/2 tablespoon ground turmeric Thanks for the link. I find the recipes in the link very interesting and superior to the recipe above. The paste is interesting. The optimization of curcumin's bioavailability by using black pepper is an important point! Thanks so much for sharing this! DejaVu |

Apparently there are many versions of drinks with turmeric. Don't you love the name "Golden milk"? How can something called that not be good for you I looked all over the Internet and liked this recipe and the fact that the video showed how to make it and she is a chiropractor , so I was sold. Your recipe has high fat coconut milk, my yoga teachers recipe had almond oil and in the video on the link, she suggest Udo's oil. Interesting all the different oils. All I know is, since turmeric is supposed to be a good anti inflammatory and inflammation is responsible for a large percentage of pain, So I am going to give it a try it. This article also said it was anti carcinogenic, along with many other benefits. Let me know if you try it. My best, D. |

Hi Diandra,
Yes, that's a great name! I believe the added fat may also help with the absorption of turmeric. I will write a comment here if I try it soon. Thanks again, Diandra! Warmly, DejaVu |

I have read that black pepper is also good for absorption.... There is also a recipe for black pepper syrup for the same reason. Thanks for this post....I read about the tea but never got around to making thus drinking it...but thanks for this and please keep us updated Last edited by Enna70; 08-14-2015 at 02:07 PM.
