You are probably aware that turmeric is one of the “hot” herbs in the past couple of years because of its outstanding medicinal properties, but what many people don’t know is that these properties can be optimized and boosted. Turmeric comes with many health benefits, but if you want to get the most of it, you need to know how to use it.
Turmeric can be easily dissolved in oil, so the best way for the body to absorb the useful compounds found in it is to combine turmeric with organic oil. When you use turmeric, try to mix it with organic olive oil or coconut.
How Much is Enough To Optimize The Health Benefits of Turmeric?
According to many nutrients, having one teaspoon of turmeric per day should be enough for adult individuals to feel the positive effects. You need to take turmeric on a daily basis or at least three times a week.
Children under six and elderly people should use half a teaspoon per day, start with one dose per week and gradually increase the dose to meet their individual needs. In case indigestion or other similar reactions occur, you should stop using turmeric and visit your doctor.
If you want to optimize the effects of turmeric then mix it with black pepper. Numerous studies have confirmed that when turmeric is taken together with black pepper, the bioavailability of turmeric is increased 20 times
