Why Turmeric?
Here at Pulp Story, we live the turmeric life. We believe so strongly in the healthful properties of this peppery root that we’ve crafted an entire line of wellness juice shots around it. Whether you want to boost your immune system, feel more energized or improve your digestion, whole, fresh turmeric can help you do that.
By now, most people have heard at least a whisper or two about turmeric’s holistic benefits. Many, however, aren’t sure exactly what those benefits might be. That’s fair: It’s difficult to sort through the huge range of information available these days, much of it conflicting.
So, why turmeric, you ask? Here’s the story.
This spicy yellow-orange root has been used in traditional Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine for millennia. Its uses ranged widely, but it was recognized even thousands of years ago for its powerful capacity to help the body heal from wounds and infections, soothe the digestive tract and stimulate appetite, and heal conditions such as chicken pox and conjunctivitis.
Today, turmeric is still big news, widely hailed for its ability to combat cancer, to prolong the lives of those who have already been diagnosed with the disease, and to ease a range of digestive troubles, infections and other ailments. It is arguably one of the best-attested natural curatives available, with almost 9,000 research papers and professional studies to back it up.

Why Juice
“Why juice?” is a question we ask ourselves every day … and answer. We juice because we believe in the preservative-free goodness that comes from our cold-press process. We juice because we believe food is medicine, and a healthy beverage can do a lot for you and your body.
We juice because we simply love it. We love the taste, the smell, the slightly thick texture that proves our juices came from real, fresh produce. We juice because we think you’ll love it too.

Why shots
The reasoning here is pretty simple
We believe turmeric blasts can be the kick in the pants you need to live the life you want.
Turmeric is a bright yellow-orange spice native to South Asia. It is a member of the ginger family, which accounts for its pungent and slightly spicy flavor, and is best known for giving curry that vibrant yellow hue. Most of us are used to seeing turmeric in powdered form, but this flavorful spice actually grows as a root.
- That root is loaded with antioxidants and delivers an array of anti-inflammatory compounds – more than two dozen, believe it or not! It can help find inflammation, reduce feelings of pain and increase joint mobility, helping those with arthritis and other inflammatory conditions. (1)
- That’s not the only secret this unassuming root has in store for you, though. The active ingredient in turmeric – curcumin – has been shown to put your immune system in high gear and enhance antibody responses, indicating its effectiveness in fighting “allergy, asthma, atherosclerosis, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, and cancer.” (2)
- Moreover, probably by dint of its powerful antioxidant properties, turmeric has a potent effect on mood. It can alleviate depression and modulate emotions. Studies also show it can be effective against the progression of Alzheimer’s and the symptoms of epilepsy. (3)
What does all this have to do with shots, you’re wondering?
Simple: Wellness blasts are the absolute best way to get more turmeric in your life, and therefore the best way to energize your body, boost your immune system and keep you feeling good.
Our shots are made exclusively from fresh turmeric root. Unlike other products of a similar nature, we never use the powdered form of the spice, which denatures many of the active ingredients. Plus, we pack every shot with the maximum amount of cold-pressed turmeric goodness, using more root by volume than any other company we know.
Because our shots contain all the enzymes present in fresh produce, they’re extremely bioavailable – meaning, your body can absorb and use them right away, giving you those immune-fighting and mood-boosting benefits without the wait.
