Enjoy Turmeric raw AND absorb the goodness. Here’s how…
In order to make the most out of taking turmeric in any form, it is more readily available to you with the presence of fat. In this recipe fat is in the form of avocado.
Ever heard that pepper increases the absorption also, well this is scientifically, true, but who’s responsible? It’s the major component of black pepper, Piperine. That’s right, adding pepper with curcumin enhances serum concentrations and extends the bioavailability! So get cracking!

Turmeric Smoothie Recipe
If you feel like some added blood sugar stabilisers and anti-inflammatory action – try adding some ginger, cayenne and/or cinnamon!

- ½ an avocado
- 1 banana
- pinch of cracked pepper (trust me)
