Why is Lakadong turmeric called “the world’s highest-curcumin turmeric,” and how does that benefit finished products?

Lakadong rhizomes grow in the cool, misty hills of Meghalaya. Lab tests show they hold 7–9 % curcumin, while ordinary market turmeric sits around 2–3 %. That means you get the same bright colour and wellness punch with roughly one-third of the powder. The flavour is warm and a little earthy, not bitter. Farmers dry the roots gently below 50 °C, so the natural turmeric oils stay intact and the colour stays bright for many months. If a recipe calls for 3 g regular turmeric, 1 g Lakadong will usually do the job.

Claim strength: Moderate.

Claim-strength scale – High = multiple human studies; Moderate = a few trials; Emerging = early lab data.

How do I take Lakadong Turmeric for everyday wellness?

A simple “golden milk” works well: stir ½ teaspoon (about 1 g) of powder into warm milk or a plant drink, add a pinch of black pepper and a little oil or ghee. Pepper’s natural compound piperine helps your body absorb curcumin far better — some studies say up to 20-fold better  .  One mug like this gives about 80 mg curcumin, the level used in many research trials on joint comfort and mood  .

Claim strength: Moderate.

Can Lakadong Turmeric really help with stiff joints and sore muscles?

Several human studies found that taking 150–200 mg curcumin daily for 4–8 weeks reduced knee-pain scores and lowered blood markers of inflammation.  Two level teaspoons of Lakadong powder meet that curcumin range. People often notice easier movement after two to three weeks, though results vary.

Claim strength: High.

Is Lakadong turmeric safe to use every day?

Global food-safety groups say up to 3 mg curcumin per kg of body weight is a safe long-term intake.  For a 70 kg adult that’s about 210 mg curcumin (roughly 2 g Lakadong powder). Most “golden-milk” or spice-blend servings stay well below that. Very high doses may cause mild tummy upset in some people.

Claim strength: High.

I’ve heard some turmeric can contain lead. What about Lakadong?

Cheap turmeric is sometimes adulterated with lead-based colourants. Every Lakadong batch is lab-tested; typical results show lead below 0.10 ppm, far tighter than the EU limit of 2 ppm for spices. Certificates of Analysis (COAs) are available on request.

Claim strength: High.

Will the colour and flavour hold up in baking or cooking?

Yes. Because the powder is dried gently, its yellow colour (about 400 ASTA units) and warm scent stay vivid at normal cooking temperatures. In tests, muffins baked at 180 °C kept over 90 % of their colour after three days, and the aroma remained noticeable. A small pinch even brightens cheese sauce or scrambled tofu without tasting chalky.

How to Use

Whisk 2 g powder with warm oat milk, black pepper and coconut oil for a curcumin-rich golden latte.

Add 1 % to plant-based cheese, hummus or mayo for vibrant colour and anti-oxidant label appeal.

Blend 5 g into 60 g nut-butter energy bites; piperine-enhanced absorption boosts functional value.
