Gota Haldi, also known as whole dried turmeric root, is a traditional Ayurvedic herb celebrated for its powerful healing properties. Unlike powdered turmeric, Gota Haldi retains its natural essential oils, aroma, and medicinal value. It is often used in puja rituals, skincare, immunity-boosting recipes, and natural medicine. Farm Ayurveda brings you handpicked, sun-dried, and unadulterated Gota Haldi straight from trusted farms of India, ensuring the highest quality and purity.
This golden root is a staple in Ayurveda for treating inflammation, skin disorders, and respiratory issues. Rich in curcumin, Gota Haldi acts as a natural detoxifier, immunity enhancer, and antibacterial agent. It is ideal for consumption in decoctions (kadha), external application in ubtans, and rituals during festive occasions like Haldi ceremonies.
The use of turmeric, especially Gota Haldi, dates back over 4000 years in Indian culture. Revered in ancient Vedic texts, turmeric was not only a sacred ritual herb but also a powerful medicinal plant in the Ayurvedic system. It was widely used in Ayurvedic formulations (Churna, Lep, and Kwath) and was also traded through the Silk Route. Traditionally used in Indian weddings, especially in the Haldi ceremony, Gota Haldi symbolizes purification, prosperity, and protection.
