I need to take better care of myself…

Took a trip to Sprouts for some healthy food shopping and to check out the tea and wine selection. I hit the tea isle first and there it was Numi Tumeric Tea, my eyes locked in on the bright yellow box. I got super excited about finding this stuff  because I’ve read lots of great health benefits about tumeric and drinking it as a tea.

This is what really stood out to me:

1. Its anti inflammatory and has a bunch of antioxidants  which means it boost your natural defense against disease joint pain and aging.
2. It aids in digestion meaning it helps you eliminate waste regularly which is super important because some illnesses start in the gut.
3. It assist the body in detoxing and could possibly protect you from Cancer.
4. Helps to digest fat and sugar so it’s used as energy and not stored in your body.
5. And help with mouth and gum health.

8-10 min brewing time produced a really lovely golden color and it smelled just like licorice. The taste was delicate nowhere near what I expected, Tumeric is a very pungent spice used in most Indian dishes and has been used for thousands of years for its medicinal benefits. Overall this was a really yummy tea for starters, next time I will try it with fresh tumeric root.

Cheers to good health.
