Turmeric (Curcuma longa) has become an everyday alliance in my world as of late. Perimenopause is wreaking havoc on my body, my joints specifically. And so I am pounding all the turmeric (and ginger) to try and reduce the inflammation in my body during this transition phase of life. I am using turmeric 3 ways...cold elixir, turmeric capsules and golden mylk. The smell of these potent roots freshly grated is intoxicating!
This herb will also support my liver, which will support hormone balance in this period of rollercoaster hormones.
Have you had any success using turmeric for inflammatory body complaints?
