This healthy Tumeric tonic not only tastes great but does amazing things to support overall good health! It’s a turmeric drink with a ginger zing, infused with citrus flavors of orange and lemon. The raw organic honey pulls it all together for a delicious and refreshing drink any time of year.
One particular component of turmeric is curcumin, a powerful anti-inflammatory that has been studied for its ability to prevent premature aging, reduce depression, and offers natural support to the body on wound healing, dealing with arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, cystic fibrosis, blood sugar, and act as a painkiller, among other things.
Tip: If you’re experiencing bloat, indigestion or feeling down, get your blender out to whirl up a BE Healthy Turmeric Tonic!
