Consistent, daily consumption of Turmeric is a healthy habit !

Adding Turmeric to your diet to improve your health sounds simple, but we've found that its damn hard to do well. The key to your well being may very well lie in understanding the value of how forming a healthy positive habit can change your life.

When we hear experts say that our health is hugely dependent on living a healthy lifestyle it begs the question, what exactly is a healthy lifestyle? If your life is really the sum total of everything you do every day, then your lifestyle is the way in which you choose to do those things every day. When you focus on making sure each of these activities are good for you, you are on the path to living a healthy lifestyle. 

Sounds great, but how do you make a habit out of a heathly lifestyle? 

Some think that if you can engage in a task for 21 continuous days,  that this can now be thought of as a habit. Recent research has shed light on what it takes for us to really form a habit. 

In his book “The Power of Habit,” Charles Duhigg, claims that habits are not born, but created. Every bad and good habit is the direct result of a pattern he calls a “habit loop.” This “habit loop” is a three-part process.

• The first step is the trigger that tells your brain to let a certain behavior unfold.
• Hey, I have a family history of Alzheimer's/Cancer/Arthritis etc. and should do something about it.
• The second step is the behavior itself, or the routine it creates.
• Daily Turmeric supplements like Tom & Jerry's Chococlate Tumeries look like a great way to make sure I'm doing all I can 'just in case'. 
• The third step is the reward that is important reinforcement and helps us get to the point where the behavior switches to autopilot mode and becomes a habit.
• I don't even think about eating a Chocolate Tumerie with my morning coffee anymore, its just what I do.

In a study released in the European Journal of Social Psychology, Phillippa Lally and her team of researchers surveyed 96 people over a 12-week period to find exactly how long it takes to start a new habit.

Over the 12 weeks, the participants chose a new habit and reported each day how automatic the behavior felt. At the end of the period, Lally analyzed the results and found the average time it took for the participants to pick up a new habit was 66 days.
