When discussing what foods to add to some of our Basic Eats recipes, one of the ingredients we all started adding and thinking about was fresh turmeric. It has a strong flavor, but one that’s so incredibly tasty even kids love it. Not only is it delicious in smoothies (especially when you balance it with something sweet like a date or banana), but when you add it to any of your favorite sautéed greens it’s off the charts!

TURMERIC IS A NATURAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY:

Inflammation is incredibly important. It helps fight foreign invaders and has a role in repairing damage in your body.

Although acute, short-term inflammation is beneficial, it can be a concern if it becomes chronic and attacks your body’s own tissues.

Scientists now believe that chronic low-level inflammation can play a role in some health conditions and diseases.

So if you haven’t started adding turmeric into your diet, now is the time!
