Golden Milk Latte

Golden Milk is considered a digestive elixir in Ayurvedic medicine. If you haven’t heard of Ayurveda, it’s traditional Indian medicine that dates back to as long ago as traditional Chinese medicine. That’s some ancient wisdom!

The main elements of golden milk are: milk, which is revered in Ayurvedic medicine for its health properties, turmeric to fight inflammation and calm the system, warming spices like ginger to ignite the digestive fire in your belly (called agni) and some fat, usually ghee (clarified butter) which supports the nervous system (all 37 miles of it is wrapped in a fatty myelin sheath).

Golden milk is an important part of the Flowly program because turmeric is calming to the nervous system. The active component is curcumin, which has been shown to increase serotonin and dopamine and studied for treatment of anxiety and depression. The fats in this drink provide strength to the nervous system which is covered in a fatty layer called the myelin sheath.

This is a warm, curative cup of yellow hugs. Highly recommended on especially full-on days.
