Brief info
Turmeric comes from the root of the Curcuma longa plant and has a tough brown skin and a deep orange flesh.
Product name
English: Turmeric
Scientific: Not available
Botanical name: Curcuma longa
CN/HS number: 09103000.
Brief info
Turmeric is thought to have come from South and Southeast Asia. It is cultivated commercially as an annual crop, by planting small rhizomes or pieces of rhizome either on flat soil or in furrows between ridges. The growing plants require heavy maturing to get the best yield possible.
Turmeric is ready for harvesting 7 to 10 months after planting, when the lower leaves turn yellow. Harvesting is done by digging the rhizomes up. Leafy tops are then cut off and the roots and adhering earth is removed. Rhizomes are then washed. Some of these are retained for replanting as a future crop. The remainder is processed into turmeric.
To develop the yellow colour and characteristic aroma, cleaned rhizomes are cooked in boiling water for one hour under slightly alkaline conditions. The cooked rhizomes are then dried either artificially or in the sun for 6 to 8 days. Dried rhizomes are polished to smooth their exterior and also to improve the colour. They are then sold in this form or ground into a powder.
Main constituents
Turmeric contains an essential oil (max. 5%), which contains a variety of sesquiterpenes, many of which are specific for the species. Most important for the aroma are turmerone (max. 30%), ar-turmerone (25%) and zingiberene (25%). Conjugated Diarylheptanoids (1,7-diaryl-hepta-1,6-diene-3,5-diones, e.g. curcumin) are responsible for the orange colour and probably also for the pungent taste (3 to 4%).

Nutritional Profile for
Application
Turmeric is a spice widely used in cooking various curries. It has also been used since ancient times as a traditional medicine and also for beauty care treatment. The main use of turmeric juice taken regularly is as a blood purifier.
In the herbal medicine the turmeric is used in beauty care treatment where its juice is applied to the skin as a raw paste, kept for around thirty minutes and then washed off. It has been used as an herbal cosmetic in India since ancient times and is still in use even today throughout the country. It is an essential ingredient of the traditional bathing ritual of Indian marriages where it is applied along with sandal wood paste before the bath. Turmeric use is said to make the skin soft and smooth. It also gives a glow to the skin and produces a fairer complexion. Turmeric is also used in traditional medicine for cuts and burns as it is believed to have an antiseptic effect and also promote healing.
Turmeric is a necessary ingredient of curry powder. It is used extensively in Indian dishes, including lentil and meat dishes, and in Southeast Asian cooking. Turmeric is routinely added to mustard blends and relishes. It also is used in place of saffron to provide color and flavor.
Turmeric contains chemicals that are both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Both these properties may make it useful for treating arthritis, other inflammatory conditions, and possibly cancer. It appears to reduce blood sugar and cholesterol levels, and it may be anti-infective, as well. Its former use in treating respiratory conditions has largely been replaced by more effective agents
Storage
Turmeric powder should be kept in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dark and dry place. Fresh turmeric rhizome should be kept in the refrigerator.
