When I've had a hard work-out and am feeling pain in joints and muscles, I take a couple of capsules of turmeric or make some 'Golden Milk' and take a few tablets of Calcium with Magnesium. Invariably, I wake up the next morning pain-free. I love being able to give this to my patients because it's highly effective and cheap.
Turmeric recipe
Take 1/4 cup turmeric powder, mix with 1/2 cup pure water and simmer over medium-high heat for at least 7 minutes, stirring constantly. You will notice a thick paste form. If it get's too dry while cooking you can add additional water. Once cooled, put into a glass jar and put in fridge. This is good for up to one month.
Golden Milk:
Add 1 tsp. to 1 cup. hot milk (cow, goat, soy, rice, almond, or any combination), maple syrup or honey to taste and 1/2 tsp. of almond or sesame oil. Gently heat and stir.
My family loves this just before going to bed.

[@spiet7380]

I just tried this.. Had to add a pinch of salt to it to balance it out. The salt is tricking my mind into thinking its sugar and the spiciness is interesting. Hopefully the golden milk stuff tastes better! lol

Turmeric coffee that's good. I like to mix & match with my coffee or tea too😅

[@jimmylee1776]

The 3 essential ingredients are turmeric, oil or fat & black pepper. The oil & black pepper help the absorption curcumin, the main ingredient of turmeric. Best to use full cream milk because it contains the oil/fat to help the absorption of curcumin.

[@paulgott1545]

Must add black pepper as the body doesnt absorb the turmeric very well but with black pepper its absorbed much much better. Add ginger..lemon and honey too..also a dash of cayenne pepper and cinammon

[@DesireeMontclaire]

I tried this recipe yesterday and I love it! I didn't add the oils to it b/c I didn't have them (plus I'm on an extreme budget). The first time I put 2 tsp of Honey (way too much) and a dash of nutmeg (just for fun). Later on the day, it dawned on me that my elbow & shoulder pain was gone! I've tried Motrin (ibuprofen) but that didn't work for me...but this home remedy works! I recommended this to my mom's husband for his joint pain. Thank you!

[@bwtraveler2]

You need some source of oil (coconut, avocado, olive oil) for absorption of the curcumin ... otherwise your wasting your curcumin & money.

[@sabretruth-936]

dont take ibuprofen... it decreases fertility.. new research

[@archimedescadmus6527]

Fat and or pepper is needed for the turmeric to be absorbed in your body. Never thought about making a paste , might try that. I make a spice blend of ground ginger, cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, and turmeric, I add it to my milk while it is heating, and then after it's boiled I add a about a half a tablespoon of fat, I use coconut oil. After it has been poured into my mug, I add some honey. My spice blend, I use about a tablespoon or so per cup of milk. Don't forget to stir it regularly, milk burns very quickly when left unattended.

Dr. Arjan, I've been researching Curcumin and read that it may cause hair loss, however I also read that when combined with Resveratrol it aids hair growth. I'm thinking it can't do both. What do you say to this? Also Dr. Ajay Goel recently did a study that showed 500mg Curcumin taken twice a day was as effective as Prozac. I am going to buy the brand name that he used and try it. I am concerned though about the hair issue. Also, do you have any thoughts on alopecia areata? Thank you!

[@drarjan]

+MFC1791 I've never had an issue with hair loss. And, the Asians all have been using it in 3 meals a day their whole lives, and I think they have pretty amazing hair, so I wouldn't worry about that too much. If you are losing hair, I would check with your doctor and make sure that there is nothing else going on with your health

[@rianahayes84]

👍 Very good, thank you very much.

[@karenwilliford1154]

I'm making this today :) I've never heard of Udo's oil and it sounds like a fantastic product with all those oils in one. My neighbor, friend and father are all struggling with arthritis and this will make a great addition to their diet, so thank you! A note on Agave ... I recently learned that commercially available Agave is a highly processed sweetener, with more fructose than high fructose corn syrup ... up to 2x as much, therefore I would suggest avoiding it.

[@drarjan]

+Karen Williford HI Karen! I hope that everyone around is benefiting from the Golden MIlk. And, yes, I agree with you about the agave. I use it very sparingly, and, as always, I just tune into how my responds to anything that I ingest. I think that most sweeteners aren't that great for us so always good to take in moderation. Thanks, so much for taking the time to comment! I appreciate it!

[@brigidlaffey7343]

The research that I read equated it - Agave - with White Sugar! Same as those industrialised runny honeys that have all the goodness processed out of them. // One also needs to be mindful of which Maple Syrup one purchases, as many mimic the Genuine article in name and presentation yet are nothing more than coloured sugar water plus plus

[@agnettarodricks1301]

@ Wendy Hinckley you can even try having turmeric tea.. take a cup of water n add 1 or 2 cloves, 3 or 4 black pepper, half an inch of cinnamon stick, some ginger as per your choice, 2 wedges thinly sliced n finally fresh turmeric root, if you can’t find fresh turmeric then you can add organic turmeric powder about half a teaspoon.. bring the water to a boil with all ingredients n then simmer on very low flame for 4 to 5 minutes n then leave it to infuse for another couple of minutes before having it.. that’s how I make it. 😊

[@user-ic3ll1ce9v]

Hello, A great and clear video, I read in several articles about the virtues of turmeric, and in all of them the experts recommend adding ground black pepper since it significantly increases the absorption capacity of turmeric in the body, what do you think

[@drarjan]

Well I haven't personally done a lot of research on the black pepper, it seems that a lot of people have and that seems to be something, like you said, research is showing to be a beneficial. If nothing else, black pepper is a great blood purifier so I know it can't hurt!

[@subutisan]

Dr. Arjan, thank you for all the wonderful information you provide us with. If I take the turmeric with juice and add some oil since I understand it should be taken with some fat for proper absorption, will it have the same effect as taking it with milk? I tried it with milk and it makes me sick. Also, I have been reading that black pepper should be added to the mixture. Would you know what the proper ration is? Thank you

[@sandraatkins2539]

Did you use high quality almond milk or coconut milk? They don't have the things in them that are harmful like cow milk. Avoid cheap plant milks with fillers and other ingredients that are bad for you. Blessings & Good Health

Hi @Lorraine Lott I just saw a video that explained how cooking it actually brings our more of its benefits

[@chochooshoe]

why make a paste though? does that make it better than just putting the powder directly in milk?

[@jenibutler7138]

​@@chochooshoe Yes, it's best cooked for 7 to 10 minutes in water, then add oil and black pepper, stir to mix, cool and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. Add a teaspoon to a cup of your chosen milk.

[@chochooshoe]

@@jenibutler7138 thanks. but what makes it good? is it because when you cook it longer the nutrition from turmeric can be absorbed by the body more?

[@integrity1051]

My ingredients for golden milk are milk , turmeric , powder ginger , cinnamon , black pepper and honey . I mix all dry ingredients into the milk and bring to a boil and add honey when it has cool to a drinking temperature. I will start adding a tbsn of coconut oil to it after this video.

[@supportdepartment6549]

using oil is not just to lubricate joints, it’s main function is to make turmeric function 2000x effective because turmeric is oil soluble. so it needs oil to make golden milk.

[@MyREDTAIL]

I just keep using my fresh Organic Turmeric Powder, As needed Daily, So no worries about it spoiling if Pre mixed etc.

[@brigidlaffey7343]

Yes, I must say that I found it strange to cook it in advance - or ‘heat’ - whence it has already had heat applied to dehydrate the fresh, into powder form. Then heat it again when making the Golden Milk - equating to 3 times the Turmeric is heated…each time must destroy more of its benefits. Thus, unless the preparation has some key element of activation, I would, & do, simply use fresh, or add ground Turmeric to the milk. A little milk may be added initially to form an easy to mix paste, before adding the rest of the chosen milk. // It’s such a precious ingredient that I wouldn’t wish to risk any wastage 🙏💜
