Dear Carolyn: Don't feel too confident that your body is alkaline. It isn't. If you can afford an electronic pH pocket meter, which quite accurate, please measure your urine. Turmeric is only a superficial cure, but what is in your blood and how you take care of your blood is very important in stopping the MRSA. Consider adding turmeric to your food. This will help. The second thing that should stop the MRSA from popping up again is to measure the urinary pH. The ideal urine pH should actually be between 7.0 - 7.3. But for normal healthy people it is 6.5 to 7.3. It is very likely that you did not take baking soda 1/4 teaspoon three times a day with 1/2 glass of water on an empty stomach. Or you can try another one that works better: one freshly squeezed lime PLUS add the baking soda until the fizz stops. Take this 2 times a day once in morning and once in the evening. Try to monitor your urinary pH in those region. If the recommended dose has not quite reached that level, you may need to take add more baking soda until you do reach a normal level. If it STILL doesn't go away, the body is experiencing fungus and certain mineral deficiencies. This means add a pinch of borax to the lemon and baking soda formula. The one other deficiency that has to do with the immune system is 25 mg of zinc gluconate once or twice a week. Finally, just to be sure, you might try only once a week iodine foot painting. Just paint a small 3 - 5 inch circle in one of your feet. After 3 or 4 applications (or after 3 or 4 weeks), you may not need it for quite a while. Don't forget to add turmeric to your foods and salads, and not just external applications. This should correct most of the biochemical imbalances in your body.
