What is Turmeric Root?
Turmeric root is nothing but turmeric in its raw form and does contain all the benefits that turmeric provides but in purest form. For hundreds of years, people have been using turmeric in daily cooking and in a skincare regime. The bright, yellow-orange spice is related to ginger. Turmeric root looks just like ginger but you can differentiate it by its color, the turmeric root is slightly yellow in color. It is available as a ground spice and is present in many beauty products.
Turmeric, also known by the scientific name Curcuma longa is an ancient Indian spice, medicinal herb, and food dye in the ginger family. Turmeric gets its health benefits primarily because of curcumin, a bioactive component. Curcumin has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
Turmeric has anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties. Turmeric helps fight acne and blackheads. It has also been known to help other skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. It is used to help heal and prevent dry skin, slow signs of aging, diminish wrinkles, and improve skin elasticity.
What makes Turmeric work So Well?
Turmeric has shown significant anti-inflammatory activity because of its volatile and its yellow and orange pigment, which is called Curcumin. It is a phytonutrient and contains anti-inflammatory abilities. Turmeric manages microorganism growth on the skin, helping ward off acne-causing bacteria and prevents other infections from spreading. It also contains powerful antioxidant properties, balances sebum secretion, and helps clean out pores.
A turmeric face mask is an excellent exfoliating agent and is very easy to make right at home with just two ingredients. I recommend you carry a patch test on your wrist first. It leaves a yellow stain so wear a t-shirt that is of no use and tie up your hair in a high bun.
You can apply this to your neck also. With consistency, this turmeric mask will give you glowing skin.

How to store Turmeric Root?
I used to peel the turmeric root and then grate it, you can also cut it into small pieces and then grind it in a mixer. After that, I take whatever amount is required, the rest of it I store it in a zip lock bag or container and it is good to use for a week. After a week, you can take a new root and do the same.
If you have brought it at once, take out one root, and store the rest in the freezer, and it will be good for a couple of months.
Availability of Turmeric Root
You can find it in any grocery store or local vegetable vendor. I have seen this in almost every grocery shop.
