- Where is it grown? Lakadong turmeric is grown in Meghalaya. Our Lakadong haldi comes directly from a farm in a small village in Jaintia Hills of Meghalaya.
- Traditionally dried: Our Lakadong haldi is completely sun-dried and traditionally ground. No additives, artificial aroma or colors
- Health benefits: High levels of curcumin helps boost immunity against diseases and repairs body damage like wounds and inflammatory pains
- Relaxed sleep and reduced stress: Consuming turmeric with warm milk or water as a bedtime routine helps induce a relaxed sleep, improves mood and relieves stress and anxiety levels
- How to use: Use in everyday cooking for your family, seasoning, in milk, smoothies, warm water as turmeric latte tea (experiment with your other chai masalas). Safe to use cooked or raw
Health fact:
Lakadong haldi (or any turmeric in general) is most beneficial when consumed with black pepper because of the natural compound called “piperine” in black pepper that increases the absorption of curcumin in body. So, try replacing other peppers with black pepper in your meals for maximum benefits!

We are all aware of the benefits of desi haldi. Our ancestors have utilised it in myriad ways, credit to its powerful healing properties. However, in today’s market filled with adulteration, it is often a nightmare to find an authentic product.
Homegrownplatter has come up with the purest form of turmeric. I consume it as a shot every morning on an empty stomach (mixed with other spices, drumstick and amla juice) and it has worked miracles for my acne prone skin. I have also used it to heal wounds and my father with his bedtime milk. It has lived up to all its expectations and more. I would recommend this magical turmeric wholeheartedly, for internal consumption and external application, this bottle needs to find a place in every home.
