Maria, who lives with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), found relief through a simple, natural remedy. She shares her experience of drinking “golden milk” daily, a recipe that has helped reduce her symptoms. Maria combines half a teaspoon of turmeric powder with almond milk (since she’s dairy-free) and adds a pinch of black pepper. After boiling the mixture, she enjoys it warm, occasionally adding a touch of sugar for taste.
Turmeric is known for its powerful anti-inflammatory properties, while black pepper enhances the body’s absorption of turmeric’s beneficial compounds. This combination may promote gut health by encouraging the growth of good bacteria, which can help alleviate symptoms like abdominal pain, cramping, and diarrhea, and also soothe the gut lining.
For most people, turmeric in small amounts is safe and can be a helpful addition to a diet, particularly for those with IBD like Maria. It can complement regular treatments and support overall gut health.
