Turmeric is one of those ingredients that offers an easy way to add flavor, nutrients, and color to any dish. Turmeric is a powerhouse ingredient that has been used for thousands of years throughout Asia and India. Also referred to as the “spice of life”, this ingredient has been widely studied for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits.
For this recipe, we recommend using raw turmeric, as raw turmeric root has been found to have more traces of curcumin and is more easily absorbed. Adding black pepper also increases the absorption of turmeric by 2,000%!
According to Pubmed, curcumin, the main ingredient in turmeric, has been studied for its effectiveness against proinflammatory diseases, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, depression, and diabetes. Including turmeric in your day to day may help increase your quality of life
Consuming raw turmeric also helps with digestion and reduces symptoms of IBS, according to a 2022 research study. If you can’t find raw turmeric, no worries…powdered turmeric will also do the trick! Just don’t forget to add the black pepper!
Ginger is another one of our favorite ingredients that also aids in digestion and helps manage free radicals that cause disease and illness. Consuming turmeric and ginger regularly helps maintain a healthy balance in the body by reducing oxidative stress and combating the harmful effects of free radicals.
Turmeric and ginger work synergistically, meaning when combined they work better together at reducing inflammation and working to reduce proinflammatory mediators. Opting for a little bit of turmeric and ginger each day is an easy and proactive way to help guard your health!
While we love our carrots and cauliflower, upgrade this soup to the next level by adding a few scoops of our Clean Daily Shake Protein Powder. This adds an extra boost of nutrients while making this recipe a more filling option. Our plain protein powder also adds a nice creamy texture and is a great thickening agent for soups and sauces.
While you may not be used to putting protein powder into your soups, we recommend at least trying it out! It's a great way to add extra protein to your diet during those colder months.
Try adding different spices and seasonings for a different soup every time. For the spice lovers, try adding cayenne pepper or red chili flakes. Or try adding some more Indian spices like Garam masala or curry powder.
