Turmeric Superfoods Smoothie

Turmeric is one of those superfoods that has been around for thousands of years but is having it’s a moment in the sun right now. Three reasons why we love turmeric.

1. It’s great for detoxification and whilst you don’t want to follow a strict detoxification program whilst pregnant or breastfeeding, your body is detoxing all the time, through sweat, urine, bowel movements and shedding of skin. So turmeric is a gentle way to support this natural detoxification process.
2. It is anti-inflammatory. Turmeric contains curcumin (which gives it the yellow colour). The curcumin within turmeric is a natural anti-inflammatory that can help reduce inflammation in the body.
3. Antioxidant. Curcumin neutralizes free radicals on its own, then stimulates the body’s own antioxidant enzymes.
