Turmeric Rhizome has many varieties and many of them are having artificial colors where inner & outer looks are of the same color as is shown in many pictures but we use Turmeric which is of white creamish outer layer & inner layer is of deep yellow color. That one is authentic and has numerous herbal properties.
