Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a perennial herbaceous plant with a highly branched root system. It originates from Southeast Asia and has been used in Ayurveda as a spice and medicinal plant for thousands of years. In 1815, curcumin was isolated from the root of the plant - the active ingredient of turmeric, which has a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect.
