Health Benefits of Curcuma longa
Kurkuma. Das Rhizom ähnelt stark dem des Ingwers, ist jedoch intensiv gelb, das geschälte Rhizom wird frisch und getrocknet als Gewürz und Farbstoff verwendet.
Es sind bis zu fünf Prozent typische ätherische Öle sowie bis zu drei Prozent des für die gelbe Färbung verantwortlichen Curcumins enthalten. Das Rhizom wirkt verdauungsanregend.
Turmeric. Turmeric (Curcuma longa) /ˈtɜrmərɪk/ is a rhizomatous herbaceous perennial plant of the ginger family, Zingiberaceae.[2] It is native to tropical Tamilnadu, in southeast India, and needs temperatures between 20 °C and 30 °C (68 °F and 86 °F) and a considerable amount of annual rainfall to thrive.[3] Plants are gathered annually for their rhizomes, and propagated from some of those rhizomes in the following season.
