Is turmeric latte vegan-compatible?

What to know about turmeric latte

A turmeric latte, or golden milk, is not one ingredient but a stack of them, and the grades follow the stack rather than the turmeric. Lactose comes in at D, high, and it is the single biggest number in the cup: the drink is mostly hot milk. Salicylates land at C because the load accumulates, with turmeric graded D on its own page and cinnamon, ginger and black pepper each adding to the total before the first sip. Overall FODMAPs sit at C, and excess fructose also reaches C once honey or syrup goes in. Against that, the reasons people drink it hold up: caffeine is graded A, genuinely none, and the drink is graded anti inflammatory, which is more than most things in a cafe can claim. Black pepper is in the recipe for a reason too, since piperine substantially increases how much curcumin the body absorbs. If your evening golden milk is followed by bloating an hour later, lactose is the first thing to test and the easiest to remove; if it brings on flushing or headache instead, the salicylate stack is the more likely explanation.
