India's relationship with turmeric, and thus curcumin, goes back thousands of years. Both ginger and turmeric have been cultivated in India and South East Asia for millennia. India produces and consumes most of the world's turmeric. A cousin of ginger, turmeric was revered by the ancient Romans and Greeks, who valued its medicinal properties. Indeed, its English name derives from its Latin moniker, which roughly translates as “earth-merit.” Unlike their Western counterparts, most native Indians would probably not be surprised to learn that modern science has begun to investigate and catalogue turmeric's various health-promoting properties.
