Turmeric Vanilla Bulletproof Coffee Recipe

Lately, I’ve gotten into the habit of adding turmeric & vanilla into my coffee…hello anti-inflammatory, deliciously nourishing coffee! We all know that turmeric has incredible anti-inflammatory properties + it’s high in antioxidants and contains anti-bacterial properties. Adding to its impressive list of nutritional benefits, turmeric is rich in manganese, zinc, B group vitamins and iron, which can help support a healthy metabolism. Turmeric is a true superfood because it’s classified as an adaptogen, which means it helps the body adapt to stressors like environmental toxins, inflammatory foods, and lack of sleep. So really, it’s a perfect addition to coffee! 

Vanilla powder is another one of the most used ingredients I have in my pantry. I’m constantly adding a teaspoon here or there to my favourite recipes because like turmeric, it also contains loads of health benefits. It supports enzyme synthesis, contains antioxidants, B Vitamins, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, potassium, anti-inflammatory properties and it supports hormone balance. Vanilla has this unique ability to add a rich, deep aromatic flavour to even the most basic of dishes. Coffee is amazing by itself, but try adding a touch to your coffee and it will take it to a whole other level.
