Orange Turmeric Black Pepper Tonic
Why it works: Black pepper's piperine increases curcumin absorption by up to 20x. Turmeric without pepper is mostly a waste of good turmeric.
Ingredients
Steps
Squeeze the oranges into a glass.
Whisk in the turmeric, black pepper, and honey until the turmeric fully dissolves.
Top with cold water and drink it with food, curcumin absorbs best alongside a meal.
From my cabinetFor days I want a stronger dose than the spice rack can give, this is the turmeric curcumin I take. It already has the black pepper extract built in.
✓Black-pepper piperine is built in, so the curcumin actually absorbs. Spice-rack turmeric alone mostly passes straight through you.

Kitchen noteTurmeric stains everything it touches. Use a glass, not your favorite mug.
