Well, I take curcumin supplements regularly for their anti-inflammatory effect, but an unopened pouch of this blend has been hanging out in my stash waiting for the moment I need to haul out the big guns.
That moment has arrived. I am sick with a cold or the flu or whatever this is. It’s been several days now and I feel like hell.
This is a straight herb and spice powder. I made it up with boiling water, evaporated milk, and a dab of vanilla honey. And wow. Exactly what I needed. Beautiful medley of turmeric, fennel, anise, ginger, and cinnamon and they all seem to be coming through strongly. My throat is being soothed and I predict this will be having an effect on all the things.
Ayup, just what I needed.
Wow, I just battled the worst cold ever and this sounds so soothing. I’d forgotten all about the anti-inflammatory powers of turmeric. My usual tisane is a blend of fresh ginger, cardamom, clove, cinnamon, fresh mint, saffron, and a little honey or sugar. It works pretty well and I bet it would be even better if I swapped out the saffron for turmeric next time.
Hmmm, that blend sounds good!
Must say, nice balance here and potent. Here are the details. I didn’t add coconut oil though that would be soothing too. https://amodatea.com/products/golden-turmeric-ginger
This cold/flu started off with over a week of harsh sore throat which then blossomed into all the things, including extreme weakness and fatigue. I may be ready for the world tomorrow as today has been much better.
Hope you feel better soon! I have a full-blown cold as of today, which really sucks when trying to deal with a little one as well – can’t just sleep the day away!
Ugh! Thank you, Kittena. Sorry that you are under the weather too.
