It turns out turmeric is known for being a natural Anti-Inflammatory, which helps our bodies fight off bacteria. It is also a powerful antioxidant, and helps stimulates your body's own antioxidant enzymes. It lowers the risk of heart disease, brain disease, Alzheimer's, depression, and even cancer.
The reason to mix turmeric with chai tea is that your body absorbs curcumin(a compound found in turmeric) approximately 2,000% better when taken with black pepper, which is one of the ingredients in chai tea, and sometimes I even add a little extra.
So if you are looking for something healthy and delicious to drink this winter this is definitely the drink for you!
