Why does turmeric powder turn red in colour when it is get contact with lime or acidic
Turmeric is a reddish-yellow rhizome. The more prominent yellow colour is due to the presence of the xanthophyll pigment, while reddish orange colour comes from carotene pigment. The rhizome contains active curcumene compounds and some organic acids. When these stems are dried and powdered, their concentration increases. When this powder is dissolved in water and a pinch of lime is added to it, the organic acids are neutralised by alkaline lime.
As a result, the yellow xanthophyll is 4suppressed and the orange-red carotene pigment becomes more prominent, so the turmeric turns into red

2. Dip a cotton ball in clove oil and soak up a few drops. Gently rub the cotton ball over the sore area of your tooth and gums. Clove oil contains eugenol, a natural anaesthetic which is why clove oil helps with in reducing the intensity of toothache;
