📋 Ingredients
Turmeric
Known for its vibrant colour and potent anti-inflammatory properties, turmeric is a superstar ingredient. Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, offers antioxidant benefits that can help reduce inflammation and support a healthy hormonal balance.
Maca Powder
A key ingredient in this latte, maca powder, is celebrated for its hormone-balancing effects. This adaptogenic root has been used for centuries to promote overall well-being, support energy levels, and enhance mood. Its unique blend of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients makes it particularly beneficial for women's hormonal health. You can find maca powder easily in most health food shops.
Ground Sweet Cinnamon
Adding a touch of sweetness and warmth to the latte, cinnamon not only enhances the flavour but also offers numerous health benefits. Cinnamon helps regulate blood sugar levels, supports healthy metabolism, and has anti-inflammatory properties that can aid in hormonal balance.
Ginger Powder
Known for its warming properties, ginger adds a delightful kick to this latte. It has been traditionally used to ease digestive discomfort, reduce inflammation, and support healthy immune function. Ginger's soothing qualities can contribute to a sense of well-being during hormonal fluctuations.
Black Pepper
The addition of black pepper may seem surprising, but it serves a crucial purpose. Black pepper enhances the bioavailability of curcumin in turmeric, allowing your body to absorb its beneficial compounds more effectively.
🥣 Instructions
To prepare this latte, simply mix the powders with the hot water to create a flavourful base. Then, warm your preferred plant milk in a saucepan and pour it over the spiced mixture. Give it a gentle stir, and your spiced turmeric latte is ready to be enjoyed.
🥛 Choosing the Perfect Plant Milk
When it comes to creating the perfect spiced turmeric latte, the choice of plant-based milk is key to achieving a creamy and satisfying texture. While all plant milks can be used, coconut and oat milk are particularly well-suited for lattes due to their higher fat content.
It's important to remember that when selecting a plant-based milk, opt for unsweetened versions to maintain the integrity of the candida diet and be wary of added emulsifiers and preservatives.
🧘 Hormonal Harmony
Maca powder takes the spotlight in this recipe for its remarkable hormone-balancing effects. As an adaptogen, maca helps the body adapt to stress and promotes overall hormonal harmony. It supports the endocrine system, which regulates hormones, and may help alleviate symptoms associated with hormonal imbalances such as mood swings, fatigue, and irregular menstrual cycles. By incorporating maca powder into your daily routine, you can nurture your body and support optimal hormonal health.
Furthermore, turmeric's anti-inflammatory properties can help reduce inflammation in the body, supporting hormonal balance and overall well-being. You can happily sip on this warmly sweet and comforting drink knowing it can positively impact your hormonal health.
