Ginger, cumin, mung beans, turmeric and ghee are some of the best-known Ayurvedic foods and Fourth & Heart is combining two of them in the newest addition to its line of gourmet ghee butter. The all-new Turmeric flavor introduces ghee, a kind of clarified butter, made with high-quality milk from grass-fed, pasture-raised cows in New Zealand.
The product is gluten-free, free from lactose and paleo-friendly and has the potential to be used for a wide range of recipes like homemade golden milk or a sauté, thanks to its higher smoke point.
Ayurvedic medicine has been around for thousands of years in India but the holistic approach to whole-body health is gaining traction as an approach to well-being that promotes everything from nourishment, self-acceptance and highly individualized care.
