Day 13 - Turmeric

Turmeric is one of the strongest Antiseptics known to man.

It is aromatic and is considered to be a stimulant for body systems. Apart from having excellent antiseptic and antibacterial properties, it has been, since before I was born (5,000 years ago), considered good for strengthening the stomach and as a blood purifier. Traditionally, it has been considered good as an expectorant for children’s irritating cough, dissolved in milk. Herbalists have given a glassful of milk with two teaspoonfuls of turmeric to asthmatic and children suffering from bronchial ailments. It is said to have the ability to clear phlegm and reduce spasms of asthma also. I would also make a paste using Colloidal Silver to put on boils of any kind.

In general turmeric is used for:
Weak stomachs
Staph infections

Poor digestion

Dyspepsia
To normalize metabolism
To help digest protein
To increase the bio-availability of food and the ability of the stomach to withstand digestive acids.
For people suffering from skin disorders like spots, acne, dryness or discoloration of any kind
Turmeric also helps remove body fat and cuts through cellulite in the body. In fact, mixed with honey in equal proportions and taken twice a week works wonders for reducing body weight, by cleansing the toxins and water retention, making the body look slimmer and toned.
When mixed with buttermilk or diluted yogurt, it is an excellent cure for stomach disorders and when made into a paste, it rejuvenates the liver. For expelling intestinal worms, turmeric juice (of raw rhizomes), taken daily, is very effective.
It has been prescribed as an essential part of food to cure flatulence and remove toxins from the blood.
The main organs that turmeric treats are the skin, heart, liver and lungs.
Turmeric is used for epilepsy and bleeding disorders, skin diseases, to purify the body-mind, and to help the lungs expel mucus.
