Lakadong Valley in the picturesque West Jaintia Hills of Meghalaya is famous for its special type of turmeric – Lakadong Turmeric. This wonder spice is known to have an exceptionally high curcumin content thanks to favourable soil, climate and environmental conditions.
While your regular supermarket varieties of turmeric usually have 3% to 5% curcumin content, Lakadong Turmeric goes as high as 12%, according to a test conducted in 2020 at a Kolkata-based FSSAI-approved laboratory.
As a consequence, Lakadong Turmeric possesses significant health benefits, while also giving it a rich flavour, strong aroma and a vibrant orange-yellow colour.
“Research suggests that curcumin can help in the management of oxidative and inflammatory conditions, metabolic syndrome, arthritis, anxiety, and hyperlipidemia,” according to this 2017 paper titled ‘Curcumin: A Review of Its’ Effects on Human Health’.
