1 teaspoon of honey (optional, for taste and added soothing benefits)
1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper (enhances the absorption of curcumin)
1 glass of warm water or warm milk (coconut milk or almond milk for a vegan option)
1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice (optional, for additional detox benefits)
Instructions:
Mix the Ingredients:
In a cup, add 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder, 1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper, and honey if desired. Stir well.
Add the warm water or milk to the cup and continue stirring until the mixture is fully dissolved.
Add Optional Ingredients:
If using, add 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice for an extra detox boost. The acidity in lemon juice works well with turmeric to cleanse the intestines and aid digestion.
Drink the Mixture:
Drink this turmeric mixture once or twice a day, preferably on an empty stomach in the morning for intestinal cleansing or before bed for dry cough relief.
