​

"Vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps protect your cells against the effects of free radicals — molecules produced when your body breaks down food or is exposed to tobacco smoke and radiation from the sun, X-rays or other sources. Free radicals might play a role in heart disease, cancer and other diseases." - Mayo Clinic

Since I have incorporated this form of vitamin C into my regular regime I have experienced overall improvement in my immune system evidenced by increased focus, energy, and clearer skin. I've learned that Vitamin C is utilized in conjunction with some chemotherapy treatments because it has been scientifically proven to aid the body in bouncing back and healing far more quickly than without it. ~ Josephine Sheppard, Natural Health Consultant

The rhizomes are extracted and used for various foods, especially in Asian and Middle Eastern cuisines. In cut and sifted form, it adds flavoring to mustards, baked goods, and more.

 

  • VERSATILE INGREDIENT - This turmeric root is cut and sifted to both enhance the flavor and bring out a yellowish-gold color. Use some in biscuit mixes, sauces, and mustard, or add some to enhance your latest baked dish. Its golden touch of color brings a bitter flavor to deliver that mustard-like appeal to your table.

 

  • CERTIFIED ORGANIC - Frontier Co-op Organic Turmeric Root is sourced from India, Nicaragua, and Guatemala using organic and non-irradiated methods. Our cut and sifted Turmeric is also kosher. There are no artificial additives or chemicals used at any stage of growing and manufacturing.

​

Clinical Insight:

​

"Turmeric is used as an herbal medicine for rheumatoid arthritis, chronic anterior uveitis, conjunctivitis, skin cancer, small pox, chicken pox, wound healing, urinary tract infections, and liver ailments (Dixit, Jain, and Joshi 1988). It is also used for digestive disorders; to reduce flatus, jaundice, menstrual difficulties, and colic; for abdominal pain and distension (Bundy et al. 2004); and for dyspeptic conditions including loss of appetite, postprandial feelings of fullness, and liver and gallbladder complaints. It has anti-inflammatory, choleretic, antimicrobial, and carminative actions (Mills and Bone 2000). The main clinical targets of turmeric are the digestive organs: in the intestine, for treatment of diseases such as familial adenomatous polyposis (Cruz-Correa et al. 2006); in the bowels, for treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (Hanai and Sugimoto 2009); and in the colon, for treatment of colon cancer (Naganuma et al. 2006). For arthritis, dosages of 8–60 g of fresh turmeric root three times daily have been recommended (Fetrow and Avila 1999). For dyspepsia, 1.3–3.0 g of turmeric root is recommended." - National Institutes of Health
