7 Ways to Add the Health Benefits of Turmeric to Your Diet

 Enhance Your Scrambled Eggs

Eggs are a quick, protein-packed breakfast option. Adding turmeric to scrambled eggs and omelets gives anti-inflammatory power and eye-popping brightness to an already nutritious, vibrant dish. In the Indian cookbook “5 Spices, 50 Dishes,” author Ruta Kahate’s masala omelet calls for mixing shallots, tomatoes, cilantro, turmeric and chili peppers into whisked eggs before pouring them into a heated, oiled pan. Although turmeric appears traditionally in Indian cuisines, you can easily add it to American-style scrambles to get the same health and visual benefits. “I like to sauté spinach, shallots, and tomatoes, then add turmeric and a pinch of cayenne to the eggs as I mix them in. The result is a beautiful dish of green, red and yellow, with a touch of earthy spiciness,”

A clinical trial published in 2009 in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine found that turmeric was as effective as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug including ibuprofen in reducing knee pain in patients with osteoarthritis. “Turmeric has incredible medicinal properties,” says Fatinah Darwish, a registered dietitian in Los Angeles, “but many people don’t know what to do with it.” Darwish recommends adding turmeric to homemade smoothies or juices for color and taste.

The letters "INRI"


Artist's conception of Jesus Christ on the cross.


Artist's conception of Jesus Christ on the cross.
The letters “INRI” are initials for the Latin title that Pontius Pilate had written over the head of Jesus Christ on the cross (John 19:19). Latin was the official language of theRoman Empire.
The words were "Iesvs Nazarenvs Rex Ivdaeorvm." Latin uses “I” instead of the English “J”, and “V” instead of “U” (i.e., Jesus Nazarenus Rex Judaeorum). The English translation is "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews."
Artist's impression of Christ on the cross.The Early Church adopted the first letters of each word of this inscription “INRI” as a symbol. Throughout the centuries INRI has appeared in many paintings of the crucifixion.
By the way, Pilate's title for Christ was actually written in three languages.
And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS. This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin. Then said thechief priests of the Jews to Pilate, "Write not, 'The King of the Jews;' but that he said, 'I am King of the Jews'." Pilate answered, "What I have written I have written."
     -John 19:19-22 (KJV)
