The Magic of Golden Milk




The name "Golden Milk" is totally justified by the benefits it brings along with it. The main ingredients for this drink are milk, turmeric and ghee (clarified butter) or almond oil. Turmeric,  also known as Ayurveda's Golden Botanical, has a history of medicinal use, dating back nearly 4000 years. The estimated consumption of milk dates back to approximately 10,000 years, supported by archeological evidence from as far back as Neolithic Revolution (8000 BCE), points to the use of milk in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. The word "Ghee" is derived from the Sanskrit word "Ghrta" (घृत) which is also known as clarified butter originated in India and has been featured in Indian recipes and in Hindu mythology, which attributes its origin to the divine. Almonds are a satisfying food with many potential health benefits. The oil that comes from these delicious tree nuts is commonly used as a natural ingredient in skin and hair care.


There is no surprise that "Golden Milk" or "Turmeric Milk" is gaining popularity like a rockstar of the 1990s. What makes turmeric so special and beneficial to human health is the presence of a chemical compound known as curcumin that has the ability to get absorbed in the fat and tissues of our body and that is how it benefits the body. It should also be noted that "not more than one pinch of turmeric should be added in a glass of milk if you are considering adding turmeric milk to your regular diet," cautioned by doctors.

  •  The golden milk fastens the recovery from an injury. Most people drink turmeric milk after a physical trauma, sickness, or surgery to speed up the healing. 
  • Turmeric has antiseptic, anti-inflammatory properties, anti-microbial, anti-allergic properties. 
  • Having golden milk is also beneficial in treating joint and bone issues including arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. 
  • It also helps with fighting skin infections, disorders, and allergies. 
  • Adding a few drops of ghee has multiple health benefits as well. Ghee is all-natural, reduces your exposure to cancer-causing agents, and contains cancer-fighting CLA, which has been found to combat cancer as well as cardiovascular diseases. 
  • Ghee is a rich source of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. 
  • Ghee contains heart-healthy fats. While ghee has a high concentration of fat, it's high in monounsaturated Omega-3s.  These are the same fatty acids found in foods like salmon that have been discovered to promote a healthy heart and cardiovascular system.
