When we hear the term "gharelu nuska" (home remedy), haldi-doodh is the first thing that comes to mind. Since ages past haldi-doodh, commonly referred to as turmeric milk or turmeric latte, has been a staple of our daily lives. Haldi-doodh is actually recommended by our moms and grandmothers for a wide range of common illnesses, including the common cold, muscle soreness, and cough. Ever questioned why? The haldi is to blame (or turmeric). The anti-viral, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, and anti-septic qualities of turmeric help shield us from the damaging effects of free radicals. This is why turmeric maintains its position in conventional medicine. Haldi is credited in Ayurveda with bringing vata, pitta, and kapha into harmony.

In addition to turmeric, milk also plays a significant role in haldi-doodh, according to Ayurveda expert Dr. Ashutosh Gautam: "Turmeric includes a chemical compound called curcumin. This curcumin has the ability to get absorbed in the fat and tissues of our body and that is how it benefits the body." According to Dr. Gautam, it transforms into a smooth medium through which "curcumin goes better and faster to those lipids and tissues permitting its better absorption." Haldi-doodh is a great wintertime beverage since it also keeps us warm.
