Indonesian Spice Turmeric Rich in Benefits
Well, since the pandemic broke out, these two rhizomes have also been widely hunted and this has also caused their prices to soar. Want to know what the benefits are? Here I will explain the information for you.
Since ancient times, Indonesian people have used turmeric and ginger as ingredients for herbal medicine and daily consumption in various dishes. Meanwhile, ancient Chinese healers used ginger to relieve motion sickness, nausea, pain and digestive disorders. Meanwhile, turmeric, historically originating from Asia, has a curcumin content that can increase the body's immunity.
Ginger and turmeric are very easy to obtain, so it is not surprising that both are often processed at home. "I am a child who gets sick easily, often catches colds, often has fevers. So if you drink red ginger, it warms your body. Especially if you are in mountainous areas like Takengon, to Mount Salak. It's like making red ginger, it's easy to get, and it's also easy to make. Yes, I prefer red ginger."
Meanwhile, Dinda, my neighbor's child, mixes her own traditional turmeric and tamarind drink by pounding the ingredients using a mortar. According to Dinda, this method provides a smooth turmeric and tamarind texture and taste.
I've tried it, it tastes like a vitamin substitute. Herbal, you know. So I don't have to worry. Then both of them are said to be true or not, can reduce body weight.
Both of these natural ingredients are said to have a million benefits for the body.
Ginger and turmeric are believed to be able to maintain digestive health and function as antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, analgesics or pain relievers, and inhibit blockage of blood vessels.
However, we also need to pay attention to the dosage when consuming these two spices. Especially for those who are pregnant or sensitive to the hot sensation of these spices. For example, if ginger is close to turmeric, we make it into a drink, for example a drink per cup or glass, we can consume a maximum of 4 glasses per day. In each preparation of a concoction in the form of boiled ginger or boiled turmeric, for example, we can use 20 grams or 30 grams of each.
With the right processing and amount, turmeric and ginger can be a healthy drink to maintain health naturally.
Greetings always compact.
