THESE 2 AYURVEDIC SUPERFOODS MIGHT BE INDIA'S BEST-KEPT LONGEVITY SECRETS
Secret #1
The Most Potent Turmeric
It’s no secret that India is the home of the Golden Herb: Turmeric!
But most people don’t realise that not all turmeric is created equal. In fact, turmeric has become so popular and in-demand around the world that it’s very likely that the turmeric you find in a health shop isn’t actually doing you much good.
Why is that? It’s because the actual amount of the active ingredient in turmeric, called curcumin, can vary greatly depending on the quality of the turmeric itself.
Low quality (low curcumin) turmeric is essentially a waste of time and money because it doesn’t have enough potency to help your body overcome colds, flus, and other illnesses when you need it the most.
That’s why our founder, Kristina, went on a health-seeking journey to the north-east region of India, near the Himalayan foothills, where the most powerful variety of turmeric is traditionally grown by skilled tribal farmers.
This is where she found Lakadong Turmeric… boasting a massive 10% curcumin content vs the usual 2-3% found in shop bought turmeric.
And she didn’t stop there.
You might not know this… but if you’ve ever read about the health benefits of turmeric, you may have heard that its ability to improve your health is greatly increased when mixed with black pepper… 2,000% greater to be specific.
Kristina carefully discussed and developed the perfect formula with their advice and ultimately created what she believes is the absolute best way to release the health benefits from turmeric.
She has travelled to India many times and developed a strong connection with a team of Ayurvedic doctors who helped her incorporate this ultimate turmeric, Lakadong turmeric, into a delicious-tasting and super potent drink mix.
And yet, Kristina still didn’t stop there… which brings us to:
Secret #2
The World’s Healthiest Sugar
During her adventures in India, Kristina found an absolute ‘health treasure’... a special type of natural healing sugar that almost no one in the world has heard of before.
She experienced it being used at an Ayurvedic retreat, then after she tracked down the hidden farmers who were secretly producing it just for themselves and their local markets… and I thought “I must bring this miracle superfood to the Western world!”
This unique and rare ‘healing sugar’ comes from the flower blossom of a specific type of palm tree in India, and is carefully hand-harvested and processed by farmers into a fine powder.
We refer to this as Palmyra Blossom Nectar.
Palmyra is used extensively in Ayurvedic medicine because of how well it stabilises blood sugar levels. It also has extremely high levels of B vitamins and minerals.
Palmyra is literally ‘the worlds’ healthiest sugar’... a sugar which (almost unbelievably) restores health rather than steals it away (as many ultra-processed and mass-produced sugars often do).
Our Magical Blend
We’ve done the hard work so you don’t have to… and it shows.
After many years of dedicated development, Kristina and her team of Ayurvedic doctors finally succeeded in making the best herbal drink blend possible.
Our Turmeric Superblend is packed full with Lakadong turmeric, black pepper, and Palmyra blossom nectar, and boosted with complimentary spices. It is a nourishing, immune-boosting drink that is fully active and potent. And on top of all that… we’ve made it taste amazing, too.
Adding our Turmeric Superblend to your everyday routine lets you unlock its full power and feel the difference in your body almost immediately.
It’s so powerful, it was voted ‘Best Drink’ by top doctors at the UK Institute of Functional Medicine*
(BEYOND) ORGANIC & WILD-HARVESTED!
the best of both worlds
When it comes to choosing healthy foods and natural medicines to maintain your health, it pays to be sure that what you’re consuming isn’t secretly carrying hidden toxins within it.
Unfortunately, the majority of turmeric grown in the world is full of pesticides, chemicals, and heavy metals.
Why is this the case? Because the demand for turmeric has shot up in the last decade, most turmeric farmers have been under huge pressure to mass-produce turmeric.
Unknowingly consuming turmeric that is laced with these poisons can lead to headaches, digestive issues, and liver toxicity*.
On the other hand, traditional growing methods are slow and produce smaller harvests, which doesn’t support the goals of large food businesses.
Our goal is not mass volume, it’s the best health possible for ourselves and our customers.
This is why we have chosen to only work with small farms in India because they are just as passionate about their craft as we are about health. They honour their traditions and we respect them for this.
These dedicated farmers have been traditionally growing their crops without chemicals or pesticides for centuries (thank goodness!).
We like to refer to these growing methods as ‘Beyond Organic’.
We love to support these traditional farmers who are dedicated to their craft and never succumbed to using ‘chemical shortcuts’ to artificially boost their yields. This is why we are able to serve our customers with a pristine, high quality, and powerfully healthy blend of Ayurvedic superfoods and spices.
The only downside that comes from being so dedicated to purity and quality… is the rarity of these very special ingredients.
As such, we will never be able to supply mass quantities of our blends, which are only available in very limited quantities.

FAQS
Firstly, whole foods always tend to be absorbed more effectively by your body than pills.
Secondly, the quality of turmeric is very important – supermarket-bought turmeric will typically only contain 1-3% curcumin (the active ingredient that contributes to turmeric's health benefits), whereas the turmeric we source contains a very high natural percentage of approx. 7-8% curcumin.
Currently, there are only 4 farms worldwide that can guarantee organically grown turmeric with this potency, as it’s so time-consuming and expensive to grow.
We’ve worked with Ayurvedic doctors to combine our turmeric with the precise amounts of complementary spices to activate the curcumin- giving you maximum great taste and health benefits.
Don’t just take our word for it though, SugaVida Turmeric Superblends were voted ‘Best Drink’ by top UK doctors in 2018.
We love mixing a teaspoon into hot milk to make the perfect Turmeric Latte or traditional Golden Milk. SugaVida Turmeric Superblends can also be added to smoothies, juices or protein shakes, sprinkled onto porridge or yoghurt, or even stirred into curries. The possibilities are endless!
Yes, they are!
