  • Tips

    • • Adding a fat source (coconut oil, ghee, whole milk) helps absorb fat-soluble compounds.
    • • Black pepper significantly increases Turmeric/Curcumin absorption.
    • • Honey can mask bitter flavors — add after the liquid has cooled below 104°F (40°C) to preserve honey's properties.

    Start with smaller amounts and increase gradually. Powdered herbs are concentrated — measure carefully.

    Store in airtight containers away from light and moisture. Use within 6-12 months.
