- Turmeric, a sacred part of Hindu ceremonies, is also a widely-heralded superfood that researchers believe can be a powerful weapon against disease. Lee Cowan visits a farm in Hawaii that can't keep up with demand, and a California cafe where turmeric is all the rage.
When I was diagnosed, my oncologist suggested I read the Anti-cancer Therapy book which calls for turmeric and dark green vegetables. So far, so good.
I agree it has with alot of my joint aches and pains.
update?
It's been called the "poor mans" saffron
I have been using turmeric for decades, but now, as I have learned of it's medicinal properties, I'm putting it on just about everything. Deviled eggs (oh yeah), fried eggs, just about everything I BBQ, potato salad, fish, everything. Just don't get it on your fingers. It will stain your fingernails yellow for about a week. I love it's flavor and diversity with cooking.
It takes a significant amount to taste it, even though I use mustard and cayenne in my deviled eggs, turmeric keeps the yolk yellow and flavorful! Try cardamom also, but sparilingly
I use for scar prevention. When I was young, I fell off the bike and scrape my face with a large open wound. I was afraid it will leave a permanent scar so I applied turmeric for weeks during the healing process and now I don't have any scar at all. It is truly a scar prevention on any cuts.
It’s also added to grandmas Thanksgiving stuffing according to my hub!!
Sumner Redstone must be making money off this somehow.
Good story. It would've been helpful with some added info., such as: myth-busting, and how to use properly (such as with blk pepper) for health benefits, and other info. on the powdered/ground (pre packaged) Turmeric, etc. Thank you!
I used that for my cooking
If you're going to introduce your country to something, at least learn how to pronounce it ... "ter-mer-ic".
So happy you said that. It was driving me crazy hearing them say "too-mer-ic" over and over.

"As it happens, you can correctly pronounce “turmeric” either with or without sounding that first “r”: TUR-mer-ik or TOO-mer-ik.
The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language (5th ed.) gives both as standard pronunciations. Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary (11th ed.) gives those two plus a third, whose first syllable sounds like TYOO."
