Turmeric with pepper – this duo is more than just a fascinating double act in the kitchen

Spices generally have more functions than just to give our food that extra special tang. For example, they help the digestion to better deal with our food.

What is turmeric?

Turmeric comes from south Asia. The turmeric plant belongs to the ginger family. Turmeric forms intensely yellow rhizomes, at the ends of which there are tubers. These are used fresh or dried as a spice and also as colouring. They have a long tradition of use in Asian natural healing.

In India the spice was used 4000 years ago. Even at that time turmeric was one of the chief spices. Now India is the biggest source of this cultivated herbaceous plant. Turmeric is a familiar ingredient of curry, a cheaper replacement for saffron or a colouring for foods such as pasta or mustard.

Why is turmeric combined with black pepper?

Pepper – like turmeric itself – contains valuable plant substances. These include piperine, which is found in especially high concentrations in black pepper. In combination with turmeric it increases bioavailability i.e. it supports the absorption and action of turmeric in the body so that curcumin also reaches the bloodstream. Otherwise turmeric can scarcely be absorbed by the body.

Highest organic pure plant-based quality

Both ingredients are grown in certified organic conditions. They are gently dried after harvesting and ground to a fine powder in order to preserve the ingredients. The powder is enclosed in a capsule of plant origin, so these organic turmeric capsules are perfectly acceptable for vegetarian and vegan nutrition.
