Let’s take a look at some of the organic herbal supplements available at Garden of Life:
Turmeric Supplements
Turmeric has antioxidant properties, which makes it a great addition to herbal remedies. Antioxidants can help to tackle the effects of free radicals, which can cause oxidative stress.
Our mykind Organics Herbal Golden Powder features antioxidant curcumin from fermented whole turmeric, alongside organic ginger root, black pepper, ashwagandha and coconut water to provide extra hydration. Add a scoop to hot water or plant-based milk for a soothing, herbal bedtime drink.
