What is the most precious thing in India? Kohinoor diamond? Taj mahal? Art and culture? no. It is the herbs and medicines that are really precious from our country. There are thousands of herbs all over India that are unheard and under utilized. One biggest example is Turmeric.
The
benefits from turmeric come mainly from its main ingredient called curcumin.
This curcumin has been widely researched. It is highly therapeutic and has a high medicinal value. It is used in
various drugs and pharmaceutics mainly because of its immunity boosting and
anti-oxidant properties.
The
usage of turmeric in India dates back to 1742. evidence were found in many ancient
vedics about its usage. Almost all the dishes made in India would have turmeric
in it. It has zero cholesterol and very very little calories.
Ok.
having discussed about the phenomenal potential of the turmeric, there comes a
pretty obvious question in everybody's mind. Why hasn’t turmeric been used in
medication in this this generation? Why do we run to hospital for even small
issues that can be solved easily by herbs and home grown medicines like
turmeric and others? The answer is tough to digest but the truth is that we
failed to pass the glory of the medicine to our next generation and it is
paying off heavily. Now we have totally forgotten or unaware of the precious herbs that our ancestors used to
cure numerous diseases.
