My new favorite drink is delicious and healthy
My new favorite drink: Golden Milk tastes really delicious and is also very healthy thanks to the main ingredient turmeric! Turmeric not only helps with colds, it can do so much more!
Turmeric is a great medicinal plant! Most people know turmeric as an ingredient in curry, but very few people know what health effects turmeric has on our bodies. In the form of a golden milk we can absorb a lot of the healthy spice.
Turmeric as a remedy
The miracle root turmeric is often used in traditional Chinese and Indian medicine, it is considered the best remedy for inflammation! Turmeric is now also used in Western medicine, because studies have shown that the turmeric contained kumine is just as effective as anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs - only with no side effects.
Turmeric has a positive effect on the joints, liver, heart and circulation. It detoxifies, regulates and has an immune-enhancing effect. In existing diseases such as cancer, intestinal diseases such as Crohn's disease and lung diseases, the curcumin should show positive effects.
But that's not all: regular turmeric intake should help prevent Alzheimer's, lower blood pressure and blood lipid levels, and improve memory and brain function.
Well, now I've raved enough. You should definitely buy turmeric now, if you do not already have it in the house. The spice powder can be purchased almost everywhere, but I prefer organically grown products because they are free of harmful substances.
Turmeric in the kitchen
Turmeric gives dishes a golden yellow color. You can, for example, add vegetable and potato dishes, but as golden milk I like turmeric best. Good side effect: So I can absorb a lot more of the healthy powder, as if I would take it only for seasoning.
The drink tastes so delicious that I drink it almost every night before going to sleep! If I do not have time to cook the golden milk, I use this fast, cold variant.
Fast golden milk
ingredients
1 cup vegetable milk (soy, oat, rice drink), 1 ripe banana, 1/2 tsp turmeric, 1 pinch of pepper, 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil
preparation
Put all ingredients in a blender and purée until well blended. Put in a glass and enjoy!
Turmeric paste for the golden milk
ingredients
1/4 cup of turmeric, 1/2 cup of water
preparation
Cook the turmeric and water over medium heat for a few minutes to a paste, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. It should create a thick paste. If the consistency becomes too firm, add some water.
Once you have made the turmeric paste, preparing the golden milk is no longer difficult.
Golden milk
ingredients
1 cup vegetable milk (soy, rice, oat drink), 1 teaspoon turmeric paste, 1 teaspoon coconut oil, a pinch of pepper (depending on your taste more), 1 small piece of grated ginger, coconut blossom sugar to taste
preparation
Boil the milk with the turmeric paste and the pepper briefly, stirring constantly. Add the coconut oil and stir until it has dissolved. Add the ginger and the sweetener of your choice. I prefer to take coconut blossom sugar (available at the health food store), but you can also take table sugar or honey.
