Welcome back to my recipe blog, where I’m sharing delicious and healthy recipes that are perfect for supporting midlife and hormonal health. Today, it’s another quick and easy dressing, as I find this one of the easiest ways of pimping a meal with extra nutrition and flavour. Today, my star ingredients are turmeric and honey. This vibrant dressing is not only full of flavour, but it also boasts a range of health benefits that are particularly beneficial for women experiencing menopause. We all know turmeric is a brilliant anti-inflammatory and immune-booster, while honey is a natural sweetener, antibacterial and antioxidant. Together, they are a dream team for creating a tasty and nutritious dressing that is perfect for drizzling over any salad or using as a marinade.

Health Benefits of my Turmeric and Honey Dressing
- Honey is a good source of antioxidants, which can help protect against cell damage. It may also have anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce inflammation in the body.
- Turmeric is a spice that contains curcumin, which has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It may also have hormone-balancing effects and may help reduce symptoms of menopause.
- Olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids, which can help reduce inflammation and improve heart health. It may also help reduce symptoms of menopause, including hot flashes.
- Apple cider vinegar is a natural remedy that has been used for centuries to help with digestion, weight loss, and other health issues. It may also help balance hormones by reducing insulin levels and improving insulin sensitivity.
