About a year and a half ago I discovered earthclinic. I immediately started taking remedies for -among other things- allergies, asthma, fibromyalgia, and boils. (I have never been diagnosed with MRSA, I choose NOT to have that put in my medical records. Besides, no medication ever given to my son or any of his friends ever really helped.) I no longer suffer from ANY of those conditions accept the boils.

When I first started taking the turmeric I had no less than 30 outbreaks in less than 3 weeks. I assumed this was a 'cleansing period'. They were uncomfortable, inconvenient of course but definitely NOT like they used to be. Since then I have had 4. Two were very minor, gone right away. The third was a bit more painful, this one now is killing me! It may very well be the worst I have ever had!

HERE IS MY POINT! I did the math and realized why I have gotten these last two -I think. The last one I got after my son had been in the hospital, I missed maybe 2 or 3 days of taking my morning "tea". This time I have gotten VERY caught up in life, very busy and I think I have only had my tea 3 or 4 times in the last week and a half! It is my understanding that there is no 'cure' for MRSA. There is only control.

My 'tea' consists of 1/4 tsp turmeric
1/4 tsp cayenne
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 Tbs blackstrap molasses
1 Tbs coconut oil
1 c warm water

For those of us who are predisposed to boils, are sensitive to staph or have been exposed to MRSA constant control is key to our continued health.

By the way, I also rinse with ACV after every shower and spray myself head to toe with peroxide about every other day to control topically.
