The magical ingredient present in our kitchen is essential for our daily food. The medicinal properties in turmeric might be able to boost the immune system, even in people with immune disorders. A study theorized that turmeric can moderate the immune system.

Turmeric tea’s many medicinal properties, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, could contribute to cancer prevention. The National Cancer Institute has recognized curcumin as an effective anticarcinogen, or substance that helps prevent cancer.

Payal Kothari, integrative nutritionist, and life coach said, “Turmeric has a bioactive compound called curcuminoids – curcumin, which has many powerful medicinal healing properties. The curcumin in turmeric suppresses the growth of fat tissues and helps reduce weight. Eating mindfully and drinking turmeric tea regularly could help restrict an increase in fat cells. Consuming turmeric tea can help heal the inflammation at a molecular level and aid in weight loss.”

Nutritionist Neha Sahaya said, “This can put you at high risk of developing chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes, blood, pressure, and cardiovascular disease. Curcumin, the antioxidant found in turmeric, can help suppress inflammation in your muscles, fat cells and pancreas.”
