turmeric and ginger are in the same family of plants, there is more curcumin in the turmeric hence its more orange color whereas ginger is more yellow. zoe Sunday, December 17, 2006, 10:54:32 AM, you wrote: I find curcumin to be cited as giving yellow color to Turmeric. So it's turmuric you need to be taking, not ginger.......
Now I found a site listing curcumin in ginger, but there is a heck of a lot more in turmuric. Just thought it was worth a mention. BTW, I am saving your post to my remedies file, thanks. Kathryn
