Turmeric and Cinnamon in Coffee for Weight Loss

Notes

Why Add Black Pepper? Black pepper contains piperine, which enhances the absorption of curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, by up to 2000%.
Optional Add-Ins: Coconut milk or almond milk can be used for a creamier version of the coffee.
Turmeric Coffee Hack: To save time, pre-mix a batch of the spice blend (turmeric, cinnamon, and black pepper) and store it in an airtight container for quick use.
Side Effects to Watch For: Drinking too much turmeric coffee can lead to acid reflux or mild stomach upset, so stick to one cup daily unless otherwise advised.
