60 capsules with turmeric powder

Turmeric is a herbaceous plant of the Zingiberaceae family, native to southern Asia. We know it mainly as a powder used in cooking, but it also exists as an essential oil, capsule and fluid extract. It is appreciated for its many virtues, but our consumption is so minimal that we can't take full advantage of its health benefits. Turmeric capsules offer a solution. This dietary supplement enables us to consume this plant in sufficient quantities and appreciate its incredible properties.

Particularly used in traditional Japanese, Chinese, Thai and Indonesian medicine, turmeric is also an essential food for our general health. When we speak of turmeric, we mean both the plant and the spice. The latter is obtained from the rhizome of curcuma domestica, which must be boiled to remove the skin. The rhizomes are then dried in the sun and ground. The result is the familiar orange turmeric powder. This oriental spice has long been used as a food coloring and dye, as well as a cosmetic.
