Turmeric Infused Honey 

is the most effective nutritional substance in existence. It is an adaptogen, a nontoxic herb that regulates the immune and endocrine systems. It also is antiseptic, is hepatoprotective, invigorates the blood, and helps prevent or treat an infection. Regarded as a panacea in Ayurveda, turmeric is widely used in food, medicine and skincare.

Beneficial compounds

Edinburgh Honey Co state that Turmeric contains up to 5% essential oils and up to 5% curcumin, a polyphenol considered the most active constituent of turmeric, although I think it works best when mixed with its other natural antioxidants including curcuminoids, flavonoids and carotenoids. Volatile oils include tumerone, atlantone, and zingiberene which is also found in the related plant, ginger. Other constituents include Vitamins C and E, sugars, proteins, and resins. It is used on Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine for the treatment of inflammation, flatulence, jaundice, menstrual difficulties, haematuria, haemorrhage, and colic. Turmeric can also be applied topically in poultices to relieve pain and inflammation but will colour the skin for a few days after removal.
