Intestinal Disorders:Turmeric is an antiseptic. The juice or powder, mixed in buttermilk or plain water heals intestinal problems, especially chronic diarrhoea and flatulence.
Worms:
About 20 drops of the juice of raw turmeric, mixed with a pinch of salt, taken first thing in the morning daily, is considered an effective remedy for expelling worms.
Anaemia:
Turmeric is rich in iron. A teaspoon of raw turmeric juice, mixed with honey, taken every day is beneficial.
Measles:
Turmeric roots dried in the sun, ground to a fine powder and mixed with a few drops of honey and the juice of a few bitter gourd leaves makes a concoction to cure the bothersome measles.
Asthma:
A teaspoon of turmeric powder with a glass of milk, twice or thrice daily, works wonders for the painful bronchial asthma.
Cough and Cold:
Turmeric is an effective household remedy for chronic cough and throat irritations. Mix half a teaspoon of fresh turmeric powder in 30 ml of warm milk for a quick cure. To prepare this, milk is poured on a hot ladle with turmeric in it and boiled over a slow fire. In case of a running cold, smoke from burning turmeric can be inhaled. This increases the discharge from the nose and brings quicker relief.
