I drink it every day. My kids will take it once in a while. My DH will add a pinch of turmeric in his coffee. SMH. We were drinking it even before it became a thing in the US because we are Indians. It is a cure-all for all kinds of ailments from centuries and common household remedy in India.
I also use golden milk in place of pain killers if I ever need it. It completely replaces tylenol/advil/naproxene etc. Try it and you will be shocked. Timings are same - take a dose every 3-4 hours without any side effects. Of course I am not drinking 4 glasses of milk, so I take around 2 ounces of milk for each dose, 1/4 of turmeric powder, a pinch of black pepper. I am really addicted to the nutty taste. My kids also drink it as soon as they feel they are coming down with a cold, cough, chills, body ache etc. It is an analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, anti-microbial and antiparasitic.
1/4 what - tsp or tablespoon? Just regular turmeric powder from the spice aisle at Giant?
