Have any of you mylotters used Turmeric? If so what was your result?

your welcome and I think I will buy some to go in eggs salad for sandwiches and see how it does.

Interesting about the mustard... It has good properties even without the turmeric... There are really good studies out there indicating that turmeric does many good things... But they have to say "may" as they cannot promise that it will work for everyone legally. If you read the other posts, you will find other things that it is used for. I think it is amazingly wonderful that we have it and other herbs and spices, etc. that can be used for healing our ills. Thanks for posting about the mustard on burns stopping blistering.

Thanks for telling me about its use for osteoarthritis... I have a neighbor that has severe arthritis and I suggested that she use it but it is not one of the spices that a lot of Americans use in their cooking... They are missing out as it is so beneficial in multiple studies proven to be an effective remedy against many things that ail us. I did not know about its effects on the skin other than the fact that it could add a yellowish tinge... I am thinking that people rinse themselves well when they use it topically otherwise they would be very brightly colored-- like caution signs or happy faces.

LOL The topical application recipes that I've seen use a minuscule amount of tumeric. Yes you would certainly change skin color if you used very much of it topically. I put it in an extract once and didn't wear gloves when I squeezed the minstrum out of the mark. I thought my hands would be yellow forever. I have also used it to dye a small amount of muslin for a craft project where I needed yellow material and had none.

Thanks for telling us about the pickles... I did not know that turmeric was in them. It is indeed great that we have access to these wonderful herbs for our health... Thanks for posting your response.

Thanks for telling me that... I have been having a problem with my leg due to a calf strain... This helps. I appreciate your post.

Aww Thats so much for Best response!

I will tell you that I have gotten a cotten swab, placed a little bit of it on the tooth and gum and seen miracles of healing... It has pain killing effects too which is an added bonus. (perhaps not as much pain killing as with Listerine Original or Ambesol but still a good deal considering what else it does for you and the fact that it is natural and kills germs with harming your mouth or you in any way is great. It seems to work even if I brush my teeth afterwards to take away the yellow stain. A capsule might work for some things... I think that if you use it inwardly you will have systemic benefits throughout the rest of the body but it may not target the teeth as well as it might with a topical application.

sorry about the taste... There are capsules out there if you do not want to mess with the taste of it... It does taste a wee bit earthy or something... How would you describe it? grins.
