TURMERIC READER FEEDBACK

[YEA]  09/18/2007: Julia from B, AL writes: "I read about the turmeric remedy in August 2007, and decided to try it. I went to GNC and purchase the turmeric capsules. I took 5 the first day, and 3 or 4 capsules days following for approximately 2 weeks and it is gone but a red flat place. I continue to take 2 a day so maybe the boils will not return. I also found the turmeric at Wal-Mart for only $6.00 or $7.00. That's alot cheaper then the health food store. Hope this helps someone to decide. I also took 3 tbs. of ACV (apple cider vinegar) and 2 tbs. of honey mixed in a small juice glass every morning for a couple of days. I refrigerate overnight. The next morning, get a small glass of water, hold your nose and drink the ACV (apple cider vinegar), and glass of water and you won't taste it at all. This does wonders."

[NAY]  09/17/2007: Cheryl from Dallas, TX writes: "I read alot about how Turmeric can cure a boil so I went and purchased a bottle of 400 MG of Turmeric for $12.00. I took two a day for a week and it did nothing! My boils are worse. My one boil went from 1 to 5 now. Did I add they are larger now? I also tried Castor Oil treatments and Ichmathol. Ichmathol did bring one boil to a head and it did drain but it didn't touch the other ones. I do seem worse since I took Turmeric. I say contact your DR. for any kind of swollen lymph nodes because this can be fatal!"

[BETTER BUT NOT CURED]  09/16/2007: Zak from Lansing, Michigan writes: "summer I began getting boils, first a large carbuncle on my left hip which was a series of 7 (!) boils, I went to the doctor for two rounds of antibiotics. I got three more, each lower than the last down my leg, and after the last one on my knee found this site and started taking the turmeric. I haven't had one for a month, but a few days ago i got another one, this time on the right side of my ribcage. I have been taking turmeric, putting tea tree oil and neosporin on it, and it is definitely way smaller and less painful than the others, but still a boil. I am so frustrated, but have not gone back to the doctor for antibiotics this time. I am hoping it will go away quickly, but it appears to have gotten stlightly worse, although not golf ball sized. I plan to keep up with the turmeric and direct applications and will see how long it takes. Any futher suggestions would be greatly appreciated."

[NAY]  09/15/2007: Nordine from West Palm Beach, FL writes: "Tumeric is a disappointing herb to me i have a boil and the infection type is bacillus species i took the powder form three times a day in warm water, it has done nothing for me everyone else says its good and stuff but tumeric did nothing for me i still have this boil and its been 2 weeks so far taking the tumeric i'm very aggravated."

[YEA]  09/12/2007: Candy from Boynton Beach, Florida writes: "I had a very VERY painful boil at my groin and it was absolutely killing me. I could feel the infection growing and THROBBING. Someone told me to put Vick's Vapor Rub on it in order for it to open. So I did this. At the same time I went on the internet and found your site. I read all about Turmeric. I rushed out and got some. I put a heaping teaspoon in a drink and drank it that afternoon and that same evening (2 doses). When I woke up the next morning, my boil was half the size, NOT throbbing and draining. Your site is a life saver. Now I'm taking it for its anti inflammation properties and it is helping my arthritis. Thank you so much..."

[YEA]  08/23/2007: Jennifer from Granite Quarry, North Carolina writes: "i have had 2 boils since april. the first one i went to the hospital and had it lanced and packed with packing strip, which hurt like crazy. it come from switching my razor to a venus breeze..it caused my legs to get razor burnt, then i started getting these painful bumps on my shins. then one got huge and i couldn't barely walk. so, i went to the hospital and went thru hell. this time i got one, i don't know how, but it just pops up on the back of my leg. i was NOT going back to the hospital, so i looked home remedies up on the internet and found this website...which saved me from a whole lot more pain. i took a teaspoon of tumeric and put tea tree oil on it...and 2 days later...it's about gone! i also had some antibiotics (levaquin)...and hot baths work wonders for the pain...but only while your'e in the bath...but i am thankiN' God every day i found this website..."

[YEA]  08/22/2007: Stephanie from Worcester, MA writes: "I always get boils, nothing ever helps. Have had them all lanced (4). After getting the last one lanced, which hurt more than anything I have every experienced (it was on my bikini line were the fold is on my upper thigh) I now noticed that another boils appeared on the scar of the last one. I absolutely refuse to have anything ever lanced again. I found your website, don't know how. Bought Turmeric mixed it with plain water into a paste, applied it for 15 minutes. The next day it starting oozing, gross, but good news! No lancing required! I am so happy. Although I cannot stand the taste of it, I will be drinking plenty of it this week. Thanks so much, I am truly grateful to your website! Good luck everyone"

[WORKED TEMPORARILY]  08/17/2007: Lisa from Haughton, LA writes: "Turmeric is great in the beginning for boils, But, please note that it does take more doses more frequently once they continue to come back in time !I have been getting them 2004 and each summer they get harder and harder to treat ! The first year they were surgically removed because they were so deep and also treated with an antibiotic called Minocycline. This helped temporarily, but once when I was out of town on a weekend, and unable to find medical attention, I tried the turmeric cure from this site. It was miraculous for about 9 mos., but then they came back the next summer extremely aggressive !! It took me larger doses,(2 heaping tablespoons 3 times daily), and they were taking longer to heal, or would just stay down in size without going away for weeks. That much turmeric will have your stomach feeling quite sick along with diarhia !! I finally went back to the doctor and back on the Minocycline, but it also took longer than the last time using it to clear up the staph infection. My son is almost 4, and he too suffers with them, but his immune system is much stronger than mine. He is autistic and the taste of the turmeric will make him vomit, so when he gets one coming out, I just cook something for him with the turmeric in it ! Preferably something in red gravy, (like spagetti & meat sauce). He has never been on antibiotics and I'm trying to keep it that way, but as soon as the turmeric cures one of his boils, another one surfaces in another place on his little body. The doctor told me that it is getting so out-of-hand that pretty soon there will be nothing they can do for it. He told me that the staph that is out there now is a product from our own modern medicine - a combination of many antibiotics produced that have built up a resistency and immunity to everything they have to fight it. It is a growing and most aggresive bacteria that becomes increasingly immune to anything. Sorry to say it, but he may very well be right. I wish the turmeric would continue to work for me, but the staph is starting to get immune to it as well. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated !!"

[YEA]  08/17/2007: Micki from Philadelphia, PA writes: "I told a close relative about tumeric as a treatment for boils. He works in a prison and is exposed to all manner of nastiness. He has suffered from boils for many years and was complaining about two more that were forming on his thigh. So I purchased tumeric capsules and told him to take 2 caps 3 times a day. A week later he called to thank me for the advise and said it worked better than anything the doctors had done for him. This site truly rocks!!!!!"

[YEA]  08/17/2007: Laura from CHESAPEAKE, Virginia writes: "I have never been more amazed in my life. Several weeks ago I had two moles removed on my breasts. One was large and required stitches, the other was very tiny and under my breast. The large one healed beautifully, but wouldn't you know that the small one got infected. This teeny little thing the size of a pin point swelled to the size of a dime and got red, hot, painful and swollen. I've never had a sore that wouldn't heal before. I tried everything, alcohol, peroxide, antibiotic salve. Nothing seemed to help. I tried draining it several times, but nothing came out, and it only got worse. I thought maybe some kind of polstice might help, so I googled "natural remedy abscess" and found your site. I thought that this had to be too good to be true, but you weren't charging anything, so I thought I should try it. I went to my pantry and got the turmeric I use sometimes to make curry. Worst thing I ever tasted, but within two hours the sore started itching. Up to that point it had only hurt. By the next morning the sorness was gone, the redness was gone, the sore was half its previous size, and it had scabbed over. I didn't believe in miracles until now. I don't know what's in that stuff, but I'm telling everyone I know."

[YEA]  08/14/2007: colleen from easley, sc writes: "I developed a small red area on my abdomen that grew into a boil type area. I attempted to lance it and made matters worse. After pushing on it, I developed an area the size of my hand that became red and warm to the touch. The boil area grew to a large grape sized area. It was becoming very painful. It had a yellowish green plug that I couldn't remove. I put charcoal on it several times. After about 1 week I was getting really worried and knew I was developing a serious problem. I love this site and found the turmeric remedy. The plug came out just prior to using the turmeric. The plug was the size of a pencil eraser and the whole was at least an inch deep and an inch in diameter. I figured I would give the turmeric a day or two before going to the doctors. I put charcoal again on the area hopping to draw any remaining poisons from it and took two self filled 00 capsules of turmeric. I was amazed even after that first dose. It has been less then a week and it is almost completely gone. I am not sure if it was a spider bite or a boil but as a nurse I have never seen a wound heal so quickly."

[YEA]  08/08/2007: DW from Gallup, New Mexico, USA writes: "Turmeric really works! My boil felt 100% better within 48 hours and was total gone in 1 week. I was taking Turmeric Capsules (3X day) for one week."

[YEA]  08/02/2007: Peggy from Cheyenne, Wyoming writes: "I can't say WOW enough. Turmeric worked wonders for my boil. I had boils as a child but had not had any more until last year, 2006. It lasted a month and I still have a scar and discolored skin on my nose from it. One year later, here it came again. It had been raining for 3 days and I had been at the hospital for a mamogram. Within about 8 hours of leaving the hospital the overwelming pain began. There was no doubt in my mind as to what was happening. I was spiritually led to your web site and read about Turmeric. I couldn't buy any that night and suffered greatly. By morning my nose was red and swollen and so sore. I got some Turmeric capsules right away. Within 4 hours the pain began subsiding and now after 48 hours the boil is gone !!! THANK YOU Is there any harm in my continuing to take Turmeric once a day? I'm afraid to quit."

[YEA]  07/24/2007: Laura from Los Angeles, CA writes: "Okay, at the age of 55 never in my life had a boil and couldn't understand what the fuss was about. Recently developed two boils under my right arm pit and was able to cure one of them which was the size of an olive. This second one, the size of a pea seemed to have a mind all of its own and no matter what I tried, such as toothpaste, hydrogen peroxide, witch hazel, campho-phenique, Draw Out Salve, Neosporin, aspirin made into a paste and applied, you name it didn't work. Finally after reading on your website about Tumeric, I went to GNC here in Westwood, California and bought a jar for $16 and popped two 400mg pills. This morning the agonizing pain that I've had for about two weeks now with this little monster the size of a pea, improved! I'm going to continue taking one tablet a day for the rest of my life. I never realized how painful a boil could be and hope I never experience it again. Will keep you posted Laura"

[YEA]  07/24/2007: Edward from Portland, Oregon USA writes: "Last week i had a huge boil on my left inner thigh. It had been growing for several days. Hurt so bad I went to a dermatologist's office but they could not see me for several weeks. I was told to go to urgent care. That same day I found this website. Read about turmeric and was so eager to try it I left work early and drove to a health food store. Bought some in capsule form, maybe 430mgs? Took it twice a day and within 3 days the boil was gone. Got some relief in the first night. Was amazed and so grateful it worked. I will keep some on hand forever as these thigh bolis have cursed me for years. THANK YOU TURMERIC."

[YEA]  07/20/2007: E S B 4 Love from Atlanta, Georgia writes: "I tried a lot of the remedies on the site just from old wife tales: hot towels, peroxide, iodine, and neosporin. All of which helped bring the boil to a head. It even burst a bit but no pain relief or timely drainage. I then came across your site and read bout the TURMERIC remedy. Went to SEVENANDAH bought some bulk powder, mixed it with H2O, took a root beer chaser and went to bed. DID I MENTION I WAS IN INTOLERABLE PAIN? By morning the surface pain had dissipated, swelling is down, it is not as tender and drainage. WE HAVE ACHIEVED DRAINAGE. After just one dose. In all honestly I didn't think it would work. But this has turnout to be the best $.77 cent investment of my life!!!!!! Thank God and thank Goodness for your site. It really saved me. It is unfortunate some don't experience the same results. Maybe they have a resistance to natural meds due to ingesting too many western meds?"

[YEA]  07/19/2007: Missie from Wichita, Kansas writes: "Since I was a teen, I've fought with boils. Then I was diagnosed with Hidradenitis Suppurativa about a year ago. My doctor simply gave me the diagnosis and left the room, giving me no information whatsoever. I resolved that I would find a way to at least ease living with this disease. I started looking around and that is when I came upon your site. I tried the turmeric cure and it works! I also had a bit of trouble with sores remaining after a boil would drain. I mixed a little turmeric with honey and applied it as a salve. It heals up in no time! Thanks to all of you, this site changed my life!"

You and your website are a godsend! Thank you so much, I will preach the value of turmeric for a long time to come. I'm hoping if I continue to take it on a regular basis it will help clear up my persistent back-acne as well. Thank you thank you thank you sooo much!!!! Blessings and peace to you!"

[YEA]  07/14/2007: Sharon writes: "Well, I didn't believe it was possible, but turmeric worked. It has been a full week since the 35mm or so rock-hard lump showed up in my groin. I went for the turmeric remedy. I've been taking turmeric tablets three times a day for over a week, plus washing the area with antibacterial soap, and applying tea tree oil. I used the tea tree oil three times a day the first few days, then dropped down to once a day. A lump that normally would have stayed around and caused me pain and discomfort for up to a month was 80% gone after four days, and is 99% gone now. I have to really feel around for it-it's about the size and depth of a lentil. It occurred to me that I had a mammogram and very messy ultrasound a little less than a week before the boil and boil, jr. showed up. Think about it-these procedures required equipment to be aggressively pressed into my underarms and upper chest-lymph areas? Anyway, I'm thrilled that the turmeric worked. I still can't believe it. I used to get boils and cysts about once a year, but I've been getting them several times a year for the past 18 months or so. I hope that this remedy continues to work."

[YEA]  07/14/2007: Anna from Auckland, New Zealand writes: "Hello! I am writing to express my gratitude at finding this site with its Turmeric cure for boils. On June 10 or 11 I had the first hard lump of a boil in my armpit. I am 30 and have never suffered boils in my life. Not knowing what it was I assumed it was an in grown hair. I had flahes of fever and as it grew it felt like a burn. The boil that resulted was something so painful and depression inducing I was really at the end of my rope. I felt so disgusting and low. This one boil became two..and after the horror of the draining and dressings another even bigger developed higher on the same armpit...It was at that time I stumbled on this site by "google-ing" the words "cures boils". Luckily I had Turmeric in the pantry. It tastes very dry, dusty, chalky and bitter, but I didn't care I overdosed on it! Within minutes I felt the pain literally disappear. I really hoped for a "miracle" cure...but the next day the boil was still there, but the discomfort was gone. I felt the Turmeric encouraged the draining for a few days, and the taking of the baking soda caused the diarrhea, which stopped the draining. The effect of the Turmeric on my mood has been fantastic! I don't know what's in it but it certainly is a depression killer! The red marks that were not fading of the first two boils began to fade with the Turmeric, and the red mark from the larger third boil is fading well, and never seemed to be as red in the first place. As of July 14, all boils have healed, and a fourth that was just starting at the time of finding the Tumeric IMMEDIATELY stopped and healed!! If only I had of known about this a month ago!!! I never went to the doctor, but I don't think I had a staph infection. For months I had been feeling bad due to a falling off the excercise wagon, and eating rubbish filled with white flour and suger...Maybe a kind of internal toxicity?... When I first found the boil I thought also it was a lymph node problem due to the wearing of an anti-perspirent, so instead of a deodorent I used Active Manuka Honey with te UMF of 5 ( it was all they had in the supermarket) and I also used it as the antiseptic on my boils. At first I had used Betadine. I now stopped waering a deoderent and just rub a little honey under each armpit!! I know Manuka Honey has Staph and Strep killing "power" so that's why that might work. I am still taking the Tumeric. Actually, today is the very first time I forgot to take it and I felt my mood plummet! So I went off and happilty overdosed!! My taste buds don't even wince anymore!! Thankyou so much for this site and all the great info."

[YEA]  07/07/2007: Dan from VeroBeach, Florida writes: "I had small boil of some sort right between my eyes. so I found this great site in which I started to read the great results people are having using turmeric powder. I took one teaspoon and mixed it in baked beans. it was still a little strong going down the hatch but I eat it all up. The next day I noticed the boil was already drying up and had gone way down in size and the redness is far less plus no more pain. I am still putting about one half of a teaspoon a day on my food until it is all gone. Thank god for this site."

[YEA]  07/03/2007: luna from north miami, FL writes: "Well I was online looking up cures for boils I've been getting since I was a teenager...I was very over weight and finally lost weight as I got older. I noticed that for that period in time when I was lighter I wasn't getting boils at all...now I just recently gave birth and gained about 60 pounds and have only lost 20 pounds of the baby weight and have noticed that I'm now getting boils and pimples that I used to get as a over weight teenager... I only have gotten them on my inner thighs, buttocks, underarms and under my belly buttom and have always picked at them and because of that I now have horrible scars, that are sooo embrassing....I came across this site claiming that turmeric would cure my boils and help clean my blood...so I bought some powder and took 1 tablespoon with half a glass of hot water only once a day and then ate a cup of nonfat unsweeten yogurt. Within the next morning I noticed the boils that had developed under and around my belly button had gone down and one had developed its white pus filled head...I continued to take that amount for the pass 3 days and have stopped because I am breastfeeding and do not know if taking so much turmeric would affect the baby...would it???...at this point the boils have all almost dissappeared...now today the 4th day that I stopped taking the turmeric I noticed 2 boils in my inner thigh, I go to touch them and they started to drain dark blood mixed with dark bloodclot looking liquid, they are not that big about 1" and the drain hole is tiny....I want to know if I can still take the turmeric and not have it affect my baby???"

The results are amazing. When I tried anti b's, I would see no results for 5-6 days. With turmeric, within 24hrs, my swelling had halved, and now, 4 days later, although I still have the red marks, the swelling has gone, 100%. I'm amazed, and the happiest man on earth! I'm sure it will not cure me, but the pain and irritation relief is unbelievable. I hope it continues, and if anyone else tries this method, please let me know, and good luck. Spencer."
