Golden Milk Recipe
Sip this warming Golden Milk throughout winter to prevent and treat the common cold.
Lance Roehrig, a Denver clinical Ayurvedic specialist, has found this time-honored recipe effective at curbing the common cold when taken at the first sniffle. As a preventive, he and his children drink a nightly glass all through the winter. Once a cold sets in, he recommends drinking the milk recipe at night and using water rather than milk during the day.
Note: Curcumin doesn’t dissolve into water. Milk (as well as most Indian dishes) contains fat, which increases intestinal absorption of curcumin.
