Turmeric is commonly
used as a seasoning in food and can also be used as a dye for
clothes. Turmeric’s health benefits are vast, but not very well-known. If
you are not a curry fan, turmeric-milk is an excellent option. Simply add half
a tea-spoon of turmeric to hot or cold-milk. Here are the following benefits of
drinking turmeric-milk before-bedtime
1.It is a
liver-tonic: Laboratory tests and clinical studies have demonstrated the
ability of the curcumin in turmeric to prevent and reverse liver cirrhosis and
fatty-liver. Liver, being the chemical-hub of the body, is constantly engaged
in the processing of chemical substances entering the body. That includes
environmental pollutants, chemical additives in processed foods and drugs taken
for other disease conditions. The hepato-protective and detoxifying action of
turmeric reduces the impact of injuries to liver tissue by these
toxic substances. Increasing the production of bile, it helps remove biliary
obstructions too.
2.It is an excellent
blood purifier Turmeric has always been regarded as an excellent detoxifying
agent. Our body has to deal with an onslaught of toxins that enter the blood
through our food and drink as well as the respiratory tract. They can damage
not only the blood vessels but all the other tissues that the contaminated
blood reaches. Toxins in the blood are the underlying causes of many
abnormal-skin conditions and other diseases. Turmeric helps the elimination of
blood impurities by improving the function of the liver which is entrusted with
the duty of identifying these toxins and finding a way to eliminate them.
Moreover, the diuretic effect of turmeric helps flush out these toxins through
urine.
3.Improved Digestion
Turmeric can be used to help treat a variety of digestive problems, including
digestive tract inflammation and reduction of gas and bloating. Just a little
daily can help with almost any condition. However, those with gallbladder
disease should not take turmeric due to over-stimulation.
4.Heart Health:
Curcumin has also been shown to reduce bad-cholesterol (LDL), remove plaque
buildups in the arteries, and prevent blood clotting.
5.It has anti-cancer
properties The curcumin in turmeric has been shown to kill cancer-cells and
prevent their spread to other areas in laboratory studies. It is found to be
effective against cancers of the breast, prostate, skin, colon, and lung.
Many cancerous growths go undetected and untreated in the initial stages when
it would have been much easier to stop them in their tracks. Drinking turmeric-milk
regularly may help prevent malignant growths as well as stop their progress in
the early stages.
6.Gives relief from
a cough and cold Turmeric-milk is a commonly used traditional remedy for
a cough, cold, and other respiratory tract infections. Turmeric increases
mucus production which naturally flushes out the microbes that have managed to
get a foothold in the respiratory tract. The antiviral and antibacterial
properties of turmeric can help fight the infections while the
anti-inflammatory property helps relieve the symptoms. A cup of warm
turmeric-milk before going to bed will relieve nighttime coughing and provide
restful sleep.
