Use naturally-grown turmeric
Try to buy turmeric powder that has been grown naturally and locally. Giving it a witty angle, Rujuta says a turmeric plant has grown with chilies in the shade of a banana tree and has a marigold flower next to it is the best for consumption.
Better to use milk sourced from local dairy
Rujuta says that for turmeric milk, you should always use non-branded, regular full-fat milk, which is available in a local dairy. But if you are living in an area where regular milk is difficult to get, then try to find fresh cow’s milk. The best milk is the one that gets spoiled within a few hours if not kept in the refrigerator.
Drinking turmeric milk at night is more beneficial
According to Rujuta, you can drink turmeric milk in the morning, but it is better to drink it at night. Drinking turmeric milk in the morning also shows the same effect but the results are much better than at night. Drinking turmeric milk at night is the main reason that it optimizes your hormonal balance, due to which you get better sleep and you wake up fresh the next morning. This process keeps getting better with each day.
