Preparation

Step 1

For an added dash of goodness, add a dash of cinnamon, which has anti-inflammatory properties and can stabilize blood sugar (meaning you'll eat less and feel satisfied for longer).



Once the water's warm, add turmeric, lemon juice and honey and stir well. Turmeric will settle to the bottom of cup, so continue to stir the water as you drink, so you get all the benefits of the turmeric. Make sure to drink while the water while it is still warm.

Adding turmeric to your warm water is inexpensive, mild in taste, and benefits every system in your body. Adding this powerful spice to your diet is one of the best things you can do for your long term health.
