Ancient drink guarding health: scientists recognize "golden milk" as a natural heart protector. Researchers and nutritionists have reached a consensus about the benefits of a simple combination of warm milk with turmeric for the cardiovascular system.
"Golden milk," as it is often called, has powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties thanks to curcumin - the main active substance in turmeric. It is curcumin that helps protect blood vessels from damage, reduce inflammation in the body, and prevent the development of atherosclerosis.
According to research, regular consumption of turmeric with milk helps normalize blood pressure, improves blood vessel elasticity, and helps fight oxidative stress - one of the key causes of heart disease.
The drink is especially beneficial for people over 40, when age-related changes begin to affect the heart's condition. However, doctors recommend consuming "golden milk" in moderate amounts - 1 glass per day, preferably before bedtime, as it also promotes relaxation and improves sleep.
Important: people with liver or biliary tract diseases should consult a doctor before consuming this drink.
