Everyone’s got yellow fever for turmeric

A turmeric latte. (Photograph by Liam Mogan)Growing up in an Indian home, if Preena Chauhan ever mentioned she might be coming down with a cold or a sore throat, the first thing her mother would do was reach for the turmeric. A spoonful of the powder, derived from the root of the Curcuma longa plant, would get mixed with a bit of black pepper and honey for her to eat, to nip the cold in the bud. “You looked to your spice box as your medicine chest to put these concoctions together,” Chauhan says. And in that medicine chest, she says, “turmeric is the superspice.”
Chauhan’s long been touting the spice’s health benefits on her blog A Teaspoon of Turmeric and at trade shows with Arvinda’s, a Toronto-based company that sells spice blends for Indian cooking. Lately, though, it’s been less of a sell; turmeric is ubiquitous, and sprouting up in some unlikely places.
Juice companies are giving turmeric front-and-centre real estate on their labels. The Oxley, a British pub in Toronto’s upscale Yorkville neighbourhood, has a turmeric-infused gin on its drinks menu…
UEFA expects $917M profit from European Championship
– canadianbusiness.com
SAINT-DENIS, France – Expanding the European Championship has paid off for UEFA, which expects to make a record profit of 830 million euros ($917 million).
UEFA’s projected tournament finances published Friday showed total revenue of 1.93 billion euros ($2.13 billion) for the expanded 24-team tournament.
“The numbers are positive,” UEFA interim general secretary Theodore Theodoridis said at a news conference, adding that a larger event “was a big success.”
Revenue is forecast to rise by 34 per cent — earned from 20 extra matches — over Euro 2012, which had 16 teams and 31 matches played in Poland and Ukraine.
Four years ago, UEFA’s profit was 593.7 million euros (then $724 million) from its most lucrative competition, according to its financial accounts for that year.
UEFA leaders, including Theodoridis and senior vice-president Angel Maria Villar, praised Michel Platini, the European football body’s outgoing president who will serve a FIFA ban from official duty until 2019…
