The Haldi You Grew Up With Was Good. This One Is Better.

Haldi is one of those things that has been in every Indian kitchen forever. Your dadi put it in the dal. Your mom made you drink it in milk when you had a cold. You grew up with it. And it worked, to a point.

But here is something most people do not know. The turmeric most of us use every day has somewhere between 2 and 3% curcumin in it. Curcumin is the compound inside turmeric that is responsible for every health benefit you have ever heard about — the immunity boost, the anti-inflammatory action, the skin glow, all of it. And at 2 to 3%, your regular haldi is giving you a very small dose of the actual active ingredient.

Our Lakadong Turmeric Powder has 10 to 12% curcumin. Certified. Lab tested. Every single batch.

That is not a small difference. That is 4 to 5 times more of the thing that actually works. Which means every spoon of our turmeric is doing the work of nearly 5 spoons of regular haldi. Think about that for a second.


Why Lakadong in Meghalaya is So Special

Lakadong is a small village in the West Jaintia Hills of Meghalaya, Northeast India. The soil there is rich in minerals, the altitude is high, the rainfall is heavy and the air is clean. These conditions, all of them together, naturally push the curcumin content in the turmeric grown there to levels you simply cannot find anywhere else in the country.

The farmers in Lakadong have been growing this specific variety of turmeric for generations. They know their land. They know exactly when to plant and when to harvest so the curcumin is at its peak. And they do all of it without pesticides or chemicals because that is just how it has always been done there.

We source directly from these farms. No middlemen, no blending, no mixing with cheaper varieties from other regions. What goes into the pack is exactly what comes off the farm.


What You Can Actually Do with It Every Day

You do not have to change a single thing about your routine. Just replace the haldi you are already using with this one and the results will be better. But if you want to get the absolute most out of it, here are a few simple ways people use it.

  • Half a teaspoon in warm milk with a pinch of black pepper and a little honey. The pepper is important because it contains piperine which makes your body absorb curcumin up to 20 times better.Haldi milk before bed — 

  • Use it just like regular haldi in your dal, sabzi, rice or soups. The colour will be noticeably deeper and richer.In your cooking — 

  • A small pinch in warm water on an empty stomach is one of the easiest things you can do for your digestion and immunity.Warm water in the morning — 

  • A tiny pinch with besan and curd for 15 minutes. Use very little though because the colour is intense and will stain if you use too much.Face pack — 

  • Just a pinch adds a lovely warmth and a natural health boost to your morning cup.In your chai — 


Give it 30 days. That is all we ask. Most people who try it do not go back to regular haldi after that.

Short Information / Cutline

Frequently asked question

The main difference is curcumin content. Regular haldi powder found in most stores has around 2 to 3% curcumin. Lakadong turmeric from Meghalaya has a certified 10 to 12% curcumin which is 4 to 5 times higher. Curcumin is the active compound responsible for all the health benefits turmeric is known for — immunity, anti-inflammation, skin health and digestion. More curcumin means more benefit from every spoon you use.

Half a teaspoon, which is roughly 2 grams, is enough for most adults when using Lakadong turmeric. Because the curcumin content is 4 to 5 times higher than regular haldi, you need to use much less to get the same or better results. A 250 gram pack easily lasts a family of four for 3 to 4 months when used this way.

Yes. The turmeric is grown in Lakadong village in Meghalaya where traditional chemical-free farming methods have been used for generations. No synthetic pesticides or fertilisers are involved at any stage. The product contains zero additives, zero preservatives and zero artificial colour. It is just pure turmeric powder and nothing else.

The deep orange-yellow colour comes directly from the high curcumin content. Curcumin is the natural pigment inside turmeric and the higher the curcumin percentage, the more intense and rich the colour. Regular haldi with 2 to 3% curcumin looks pale yellow in comparison. The colour of our Lakadong turmeric is completely natural and no artificial colour is added.

Yes and it works very well for skin, but use only a tiny pinch because the colour is very strong and can temporarily stain skin if you use too much. A common recipe is mixing a small pinch with besan and curd, applying for 10 to 15 minutes and rinsing with cool water. Regular use helps reduce pigmentation, brighten skin tone and reduce acne. Always do a patch test on a small area first.
