Turmeric Powder
Turmeric Powder
- Fresh Turmeric generally contains about 3-5% curcumin, the active compound responsible for most of its health benefits, compared to 1-6% in dried Turmeric powder. This may offer a more potent concentration of its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and other properties.
- Fresh Turmeric retains volatile oils that contribute to its unique flavor and aroma, potentially adding another layer of beneficial properties.
- Some studies suggest curcumin from fresh Turmeric may be better absorbed by the body compared to dried powder.
