‘Golden milk’ star ingredient is turmeric, which is known to be one of the healthiest spices on Earth and has been practised in traditional medicine for over 8,000 years. The active ingredient Curcumin contributes most of its medicinal characteristics, since it relieves pain and fights inflammation, and thus treats diabetes, migraine, cancer, stroke, neuropathy, rheumatoid arthritis, obesity, and thyroid problems.
