A good buy for the moneyMar 07, 2011
By John LeDuc
If you want to use a lot of tumeric then this is the way to go. The list of health benefits associated with turmeric is very, very long, but at top of that list must be its cancer-fighting properties. Paired up with veggies like cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage, there is solid evidence to suggest it is very useful in preventing prostate cancer (there are approximately half a million new cases of this type of cancer each year in the U.S. alone). Most of us enjoy a drink (or several) and turmeric also strengthens the liver's potential to purify toxins in the body, along with carcinogens found in the diet (bring on the steak). Turmeric is also great at lowering cholesterol as it prevents the oxidization of cholesterol, which is what makes it harmful; this is all good for protecting your heart as it is the oxidized cholesterol that damages blood vessels. The yellow spice is also an anti-inflammatory.

Turmeric has excellent health benefits and this brand is very tasty/excellent source of raw turmeric. It can be used for variety of dishes and gives a yellowish color. Using a small spoon of it daily will go a long way in great health. Highly recommended.
Used For Healthy Steamed Dishes In MicrowaveFeb 20, 2012

I put 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil in the bottom of a Pyrex small casserole dish. Then 1/2 tsp Coarse Ground Pepper and 1 tsp Turmeric added to that. Stirred with a toothpick to mix with oil. Heated in the microwave for 2 minutes.
Add vegetables, fish, etc. and cover with a lid. I cook it for about 6 or 7 minutes. Love the freshness of it and the taste can be changed by adding other spices with it too, if you get bored.
