I harvested the rhizomes of my Turmeric plants. They are several potted plants in total are 6 turmeric plants. You see a lot of rhizomes but in reality, little is done in preparing them.
I usually make a turmeric paste that I use throughout the year but this time I dried the rhizomes in the oven and blended them in the blender to a powder.
You can see how toasted it is and how orange it is. I stained my hands while preparing them as I did not take the foresight to put on gloves. My hands are orange but it will soon go away in about two days or so being very positive.
I mix the turmeric powder with a little black pepper as the curcumin from the turmeric and the piperine from the black pepper make a masterful union to have a beneficial effect on our organism.
Piperine activates curcumin when it enters the digestive system to promote various processes in the body such as preventing colon cancerous lesions as well as helping in respiratory and joint processes.
It has many more beneficial effects than the ones I have named so I highly recommend it in the daily diet. I have been reading about its benefits for about 10 years and I have not stopped using it because of how well it has worked for me.
I am a cancer survivor of more than 12 years and I am 62 years old I do not suffer from high blood pressure, diabetes, or joint processes even though I am overweight.
I invite you, my gardener friend, to plant, harvest, prepare, consume and then share your experience with this magical plant.
I'm @gertu from Venezuela to the world.
I love turmeric!
That is brilliant that you can grow it yourself:)
Yes, I plant it in pots and prepare it at home. Thanks my friend.
I know a lot of benefits of this plant. I do want to have one in our garden. But I guess my father has planted this plant already hehe..
I think he must have already planted his curcuma plants at home.
