Turmeric is a spice well known for its numerous health benefits, so you can just imagine what turmeric milk can give to your body. Turmeric milk, or otherwise known as “the golden milk”, is a traditional Indian drink, and according to Ayurveda, it is a bedtime drink, very similar to the warm milk usually consumed before going to sleep. Even if you are not a fan of warm milk you will like to drink turmeric milk as it is more delicious from the ordinary one. Moreover, it will give you an incredible warming feeling thus making you quickly fall asleep.

We can recommend adding some ginger in it so that you enhance its anti-inflammatory properties, thereby improving the body digestion. You can also include honey if you like, because not only it will sweeten the beverage but it will also enhance it with healing properties. Likewise, you can include a third ingredient, coconut milk, because it is packed with lauric acid, capric acid, healthy fats, and antimicrobial lipids.All thesehave potent antifungal, antiviral, and antibacterial properties.
