What makes it so special?
Cultivated in the alluvial valleys of Lakadong in Jaintia Hills, Meghalaya near the confluence of rivers Myntang and Mynriang, the land is flanked by dense evergreen growth.
The entire farming is traditional and no chemical fertilizers or pesticides are used. In fact the black alluvial soil is so fertile that there's no need for fertilizer.
Turmeric is native to India and has been an intrinsic part of Siddha, Unani, Ayurvedic and Chinese traditional medicines. It has been used in South Asian and Middle Eastern cuisine for centuries. Not just food, considered sacred it has been part of rituals, traditions and even beauty regimens. From warding off evil eye, to being part of wedding rituals and festivals to being used in Poojas and for butane, Indian culture and tradition is inconceivable without this spice. Turmeric contains curcumin, an active compound which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It may also help improve symptoms of depression and arthritis, prevent heart disease and even the growth of cancer cells. Its anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties are already well known and this explains why traditionally a mixture of haldi-chuna (turmeric and calcium carbonate) was applied to heal swellings and broken bones.
As per reports, the Lakadong turmeric is said to have 7 to 12% of curcumin content while regular turmeric has 2 to 3% of curcumin content. Given the high curcumin content, the health-aiding and culinary-enhancing attributes of Lakadong turmeric are believed to be more potent than regular turmeric.
