Lakadong Turmeric Powder (7–9% curcumin)

The wood-grown turmeric powder grown in the ancient hills of Meghalaya is a valuable masala celebrated for its remarkable purity and power. Unlike regular turmeric varieties, lakadong turmeric is distinguished by its extraordinarily high curcumin content - between 7-9%. Curcumin is an active compound responsible for the lively yellow colour of turmeric as well as its powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This elevated concentration makes Lakadong turmeric, one of the world's best and most demanded types.

The high curcumin level gives Lakadong turmeric a unique edge in promoting health and well-being. Known to reduce inflammation, it can help reduce the symptoms of joint health, arthritis and promote overall immunity. Its antioxidant properties protect the body from harmful free radicals, contributing to healthy ageing and the prevention of chronic diseases. Additionally, curcumin has been studied for its role in supporting heart health, supporting digestion and maintaining balanced blood sugar levels. 

In the kitchen, Lakadong turmeric is as versatile as it is beneficial. Its rich, earthy flavour and dark golden colour make it perfect for curry, soup, herbal tea, and golden milk (haldi doodh). Beyond traditional cuisine, it can also be included in smoothies, lattes or natural remedies for everyday vitality. 

The persistent sour, lakadong turmeric from small farms in Meghalaya represents a mixture of tradition, purity and natural goodness. By choosing this premium turmeric, you not only enhance the taste of your food, but also embrace one of the most powerful treatment materials of nature.
