Turmeric (Curcuma longa), the Golden Herb as known in ancient Herbal Healing Practices is far more effective and beneficial when consumed in raw form.

Fresh from the mineral rich soils of forests, raw turmeric is not just the purest form of turmeric but also offers numerous health benefits over processed turmeric.

Here are 6 benefits of using raw Forest-based Turmeric:

1. Rich with Turmeric Oil: Forest-based turmeric retains its oils which are otherwise lost in heavily processed turmeric. Turmeric oil is a group of organic compounds that lends its aroma and pharmalogical properties to the spice.

In forest-based Turmeric such us Forest Raga's Turmeric + herbal supplement, this curcumin is retained as it undergoes minimal processing.
