                                According to Foodcraft HK, gentle heating of turmeric is generally beneficial because it increases the bioavailability of curcumin, its main active compound, making it easier for your body to use. But does this mean cold turmeric is useless? The choice between taking turmeric hot or cold depends largely on your goals and how you properly prepare it.
