Benefits of Golden Milk

You may have seen me posting on social media recently about the new AMPD Beauty Sleep Golden Milk and how I have been incorporating it into my nightly routine. Golden Milk is a traditional Hindu medicinal drink that is prized for it’s many health benefits. The main ingredient in Golden Milk is turmeric, which gives it that distinct color. Other spices like cinnamon, ginger, and pepper are also added and mixed with warm milk to create a yummy drink that is perfect before bed. Golden Milk is packed with antioxidants that help boost your immune system, plus it has anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties that help fight off sickness and promote respiratory health. Those antioxidants also give you a little more brainpower, keep your mood positive, and keep your skin glowing. It has strong anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce pain from arthritis and menstrual cramps, as well as prevent diseases like cancer, Alzheimer’s dementia, Parkinson’s disease, and Multiple Sclerosis. The active ingredient in turmeric, Curcumin, helps promote heart health by reducing cholesterol and aids in digestion by stimulating production of bile from the liver, which can help decrease bloating and other symptoms of acid reflux. Drinking Golden Milk before bed helps promote a good night’s sleep because it contains tryptophan, the same ingredient in turkey that makes us so sleepy after Thanksgiving dinner.  AMPD adds a blend of melatonin, GABA, valerian root, chamomile extract, and kava kava to their Beauty Sleep to regulate your sleep-wake cycle, relieve stress and anxiety, and promote an overall feeling of relaxation to help you fall asleep fast. Since I’ve started making myself a warm mug of Golden Milk every night, I’ve noticed that I am ready for bed a little earlier than normal and I am more rested when I wake up. AMPD also adds vanilla, cinnamon, cardamom, and coconut water, which makes it the perfect sweet treat before bed! Which benefit of Golden Milk are you looking forward to most?
