In the Reboot Kitchen: Orange Turmeric Juice
By Claire Georgiou, Reboot Naturopath, B.HSc ND
In the most recent episode of The Joe Show you see how Joe makes exceptional juices by adding spices, exotic produce and more. Well turmeric is a wonderful addition to add to your juices! It offers a long list of health benefits such as helping infections of the digestive tract, improves liver detoxification, prevention of cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and cardiovascular disease and may help reduce cholesterol levels. All these benefits are due to its high anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. This spice is also used for pain in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
This wonderful healthy spice can be added to meals easily such as curries, casseroles, rice based dishes and it can be grated on salads and juiced! I often recommend this in juice for its wonderful health properties.
