The spice turmeric doesn’t always receive red carpet treatment. But it should; it’s a gold mine of at least 600 health benefits. So what’s its secret? The yellow pigment. It possesses a polyphenol known as curcumin.

Adding turmeric to your diet is an excellent way to boost your overall health. Yet this rock star has a few issues you should know about first. For one thing, the key nutrient isn’t easily absorbed.

In today’s video we’ll take a deeper dive into turmeric to discover how to best extract all its nutritional health benefits.

1. Always Mix Turmeric With Black Pepper

Black pepper acts as an agent that can trigger its absorption into the blood stream. You can boost turmeric’s absorption by nearly 2000% by adding black pepper.

2. Add A Healthy Fat To Turmeric

Since turmeric is fat soluble, it must be combined with another fat so that your body can absorb it. When consumed with healthy fats such as coconut or olive oil – or ghee – the compound curcumin can be easily absorbed into the blood stream.

3. Heat Increases Turmeric's Bioavailability:

To trigger turmeric’s bioavailablilty – or absorption - you will need to turn up the heat. You can add turmeric to a cup of hot water, or add it to hot olive oil when cooking.
