Turmeric powder Frequently Asked Questions

What is curcumin, and how is it related to turmeric?

Curcumin is a naturally occurring chemical constituent in turmeric. Curcumin, bisdemethoxycurcumin, and demethoxycurcumin are the main curcuminoids, or phenolic compounds, found in turmeric. These constituents give turmeric its golden color and contribute to turmeric's properties for supporting a healthy inflammatory response and overall health and well-being.

Does the color of turmeric indicate the potency or quality?

Turmeric's yellow-orange color, which comes from naturally occurring curcuminoids, is not a reliable indicator of potency, quality, or how much curcumin is present. Color naturally varies based on origin, cultivar, and processing—even the specific temperature while the rhizomes are drying can shift the hue without impacting potency—and even high-quality turmeric can look different batch to batch.

We practice rigorous lab testing on each batch to ensure quality and safety. This includes assessing identity, purity, microbial and contaminants testing, and screening for adulterants.

How much curcumin is in your turmeric?

The amount of curcumin in our turmeric powder is approximately 3 percent. The concentration can vary from season to season depending on environmental conditions such as sunlight, water, and heat.

Do I need to take black pepper with turmeric to help with absorption?

It is not necessary to take black pepper with turmeric. The absorption of turmeric only becomes an issue if you are taking an isolated extract of turmeric like curcumin. Much of the research concerning turmeric's absorbability is specific to extracted curcumin, which on its own has low bioavailability.

Banyan's turmeric is made from the whole turmeric root with all the plant's constituents, including curcumin, in their naturally occurring proportions. In its natural state, turmeric is easily absorbed by the body.

That said, black pepper and turmeric do combine well and are often found together in traditional formulations. Turmeric and black pepper are both ingredients in our Joint Support and Immune Support.

Consistent with the superior quality of Banyan products, the organic turmeric powder is what I use for both spice and good health. I wouldn't try to make a good curry without it. Nor would I be so successful at calming/eliminating heat in my system.

The Best Tumeric I have found

When I started taking Banyan tumeric I could tell a real difference in quality,color,strength,and taste compared to the local store brands.

Vibrant and rich turmeric!

I started making golden milk at night before bed and quickly ran out of my store-bought turmeric. When I found this site for ashwaganda root powder, I figured I would just order bulk turmeric from here, too. I didn't realize just how much of a difference I would be able to detect in the quality. Banyan Botanicals' turmeric powder is richly-hued and has a vibrancy that lends a beautiful color. The freshness is noticable in the earthy flavor and aroma. I will certainly buy this and other herbs and spices from Banyan Botanicals again.

Tumeric and Triphala

1 teaspoon of each into my early tea topped with black pepper.
Amazing

Thank you for your review, Matthew! We are pleased to hear you enjoy our Turmeric and Triphala powders. Continue to add black pepper, if you prefer it that way, but, because we use the whole root and do not extract the constituent, curcumin, it is not necessary to add black pepper in order to make the herb more bio-available. Enjoy!

Turmeric or bust!

Being from India where turmeric is used in virtually all Indian cuisine; I use it in all my dishes including Mexican. I was hard pressed to find organic turmeric. Not trusting the powdered packs at Indian groceries I used to buy the whole ones and grind them as I needed it. Having the Banyan offering Organic I ordered it.

Tumeric Powder

I've purchased tumeric powder from Whole Foods before and you could tell it wasn't of the highest quality. It smells nothing like tumeric, Banyan botanicals on the other hand is the most purest form of tumeric powder I've ever experienced. I can use it externally as well as internally and I absolutely love that about it. I've made face washes, tumeric milk, and use as it as seasoning on my eggs. Point is I LOVE IT, BUY IT CUZ ITS WORTH IT.

Turmeric is a great bargain.

Mixing a little black pepper in my morning tea with honey and lime AND TUMERIC is very positive for me. Highly recommend doing this.

We are so happy you are having positive results from taking our turmeric. FYI- black pepper is only needed when taking curcumin, a constituent in turmeric, which is extracted from the plant. We use the whole root, so black pepper is not needed to increase bio-availability. Enjoy!
