Morning brew reinvented: The benefits of adding turmeric to coffee
While we all relish the first days of spring, the transition between seasons can be challenging. We often feel tired, lack energy, and become irritated more easily. A small change in your morning coffee ritual might help.
How do we start our day? Many of us will immediately answer with coffee. In the morning, this drink helps us wake up and concentrate. A minor adjustment can make it even more beneficial for health: just add turmeric to it. This well-known spice provides energy and positively affects brain function.
Why is it worth combining coffee with turmeric?
Combining coffee with turmeric has become popular among healthy lifestyle enthusiasts. Turmeric contains curcumin, which has anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects, potentially improving memory and concentration. Both coffee and turmeric have antioxidant properties, supporting the immune system. Turmeric positively influences digestion, and caffeine from coffee is stimulating, improving mood.
How to prepare coffee with turmeric?
Preparing this drink is quite simple.
- Prepare your favourite coffee – it could be an espresso or an Americano.
- Add about half a teaspoon of turmeric – it's also worth adding a pinch of black pepper to increase the absorption of curcumin.
- Mix thoroughly – this will help the turmeric dissolve well.
- Season to taste – if you prefer sweet drinks, use honey or xylitol. Milk or your favourite plant-based drink will also be a good addition.
It's important!
While coffee with turmeric has many benefits, excessive consumption can be harmful. People with liver diseases should consult a doctor before consuming turmeric regularly.
