Since antiquity, besides its exotic use in cooking, Curcuma Longa rhizomes were famed for their multiple healing powers so much so that it was referred to as Terremerita, or the “meritorious earth” in Latin, from which came the word “Turmeric.” Scientists today highlight Turmeric’s anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-septic and decongestant properties. It is also used in the treatment of cholesterol, irritable bowel syndromes and for the prevention of liver damage, because of its Hepatoprotective role.*
