Turmeric has been used in Asia for thousands of years for cooking and medicinal purposes. Current research shows that turmeric may be beneficial for the nervous system, skin and metabolic processes. These are just some of the benefits that I found on PubMed.

I was also fascinated by the names of turmeric. In Sanskrit, turmeric has at least 53 different names. Here are some of my favorites.

• Hridayavilasini: gives delight to heart, charming
• Jayanti: one that wins over diseases
• Jawarantika: which cures fevers
• Kashpa: killer of worms
• Laxmi: prosperity
• Mehagni: killer of fat
• Varna Datri: enhancer of body complexion
• Vishagni: killer of poison
