What Are the Different Ways to Use Haldi (Turmeric) for Better Health? - #12462
Turmeric (Haldi) is something I’ve been using in cooking for years, but recently, I started learning about its medicinal benefits. I know that Ayurveda considers turmeric one of the most powerful healing herbs, but I want to understand the different haldi benefits and the best ways to use it. From what I read, haldi benefits include boosting immunity, reducing inflammation, and improving digestion. Some people say it helps with joint pain and arthritis, while others claim it’s great for skin and hair. But I’m confused about how to take it properly for different health benefits. For example, does drinking turmeric milk at night really help with sleep and recovery? Should turmeric always be taken with black pepper for better absorption? And is fresh turmeric better than dried powder? I also heard that haldi benefits include liver detoxification and gut health improvement. But does turmeric need to be taken on an empty stomach for this, or can it be consumed at any time of the day? If anyone has personally experienced haldi benefits, please share what worked for you. How did you take it, and how long did it take to see noticeable changes? And are there any side effects of taking turmeric daily?
