Key Ingredients:
Fermented turmeric powder
Turmeric is well known for its powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which largely come from its active compound, curcumin. For thousands of years, turmeric has been used to soothe sore throats, boost immunity, and reduce inflammation. It can be especially beneficial in the colder months when colds and flu are more common. However, curcumin isn’t very bioavailable, meaning that the beneficial compounds are quickly broken down and eliminated by our bodies before we can properly metabolize them.
Our fermented turmeric powder from Okinawa is specially cultivated to be more bioavailable, ensuring maximum health benefits. It has a higher content of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties and instantly dissolves, giving you all the benefits without any hassle.
Cinnamon
Cinnamon has been used for thousands of years and is renowned for its health benefits. It’s a naturally warming spice that has been shown to help regulate blood sugar levels, improve circulation, and may protect against infection.
Maple Syrup
Maple syrup adds the perfect touch of sweetness and gives this latte a perfect rich, autumnal flavor. It also contains antioxidants, which can help fight free radicals and reduce oxidative stress.
