In the morning, followed by a warm glass of lemon or lime water, warm a glass small glass of coconut milk, with out sugar, and add a teaspoon of organic coconut oil (virgin). Mix well. Grind up organic peppercorns, black, to a fine powder ( I use a mortar to sqeeze the oils better). Mix in a teaspoon of this pepper to the milk. Add one teaspoon of organic turmeric. Milk VERY well. Add a half teaspoon of organic clove power. Drink fast, and stir while drinking to get all of the pepper down.
Drink this TWICE daily. Before breakfast, and after dinner.
Candida
★★★★★
I had a candida infection for 15 years and had tried many treatments including over-the-counter creams, acupuncture, naturopathy, hydrogen peroxide, raw garlic, and various dietary regimen. Last year I took the plunge and eliminated all sugar, including fruit and all starches, from my diet and experienced some relief of my symptoms, but the yeast was still present and would flare up now and then.
What finally worked for me was taking turmeric 3x a day along with cutting way down on sugar and totally eliminating gluten (I ate rice and corn but no fruit, refined sugar, honey, etc). I experienced yeast die-off symptoms (all my symptoms seemed to get much worse for several days) but then the symptoms lessened and finally abated!
Here's what I did with the turmeric (credit goes to the Kundalini Yoga Tradition for this info):
Make turmeric paste by mixing 1/4 cup of turmeric with enough water to form a thin paste and boiling it on the stove for 5 minutes. Stir continuously and add water as needed. Store the paste in glass jar with a tight-fitting lid in the fridge for up to 30 days.
GOLDEN MILK
- Heat 1.5 cups of milk, almond milk, soy milk, or rice milk to almost boiling.
- Pour milk in a mug.
- Dissolve 1 heaping teaspoon of turmeric paste in the milk.
- Add sweetener to taste (use stevia powder if you are avoiding sugar).
- Add 1 tsp. of almond oil.
It's sweet, warm, and delicious! Even my husband, who is not adventurous with food, loves Golden Milk.
I drank three cups of this a day for six weeks in conjunction with eliminating refined sugar, fruit, and gluten from my diet. Once my symptoms were gone, I introduced refined sugar and fruit back into my diet but when I tried to re-introduce gluten, I had bad results so I no longer eat gluten.

1. I made him the tumeric golden milk and had him drink it up to 3x per day. 1tsp of tumeric. A few shakes of pepper, a little honey , coconut oil blended in a cup of almond or coconut milk.
2. I "cupped" his wound with a clean heated baby food jar for about 15 minutes 2 -3 times per day.
3. Dressed the wound with the tumeric, black pepper, and coconut oil. Changed about three times per day. Within 5 days it was entirely drained and healing.
This was in mid November. As of yesterday, NO reoccurance and his mysterious carbuncle is no more.
Thank you Earth Clinic etal!!

I have done a lot recently to heal my skin - so I can not pinpoint directly to where the Golden Milk comes in specifically [but there are a lot of reviews on this site see under Turmeric where they started with turmeric alone and they said yes]. For years I thought I was having acne - but it seems I simply had malnutrition & a weak stomach. Here is what I did to come to point where I feel things are finally balanced & my skin is having no outbreaks anymore - just minor signs which seem to be soon as well of the past. I found Schizandra [if it grows in your region take it fresh otherwise in capsules 3x 3 per day] and after about 3 months of taking it made a major improvement not just to my skin - but overall - it has detoxifying qualities - I will continue to take this fruit it is an Asian tonic and skin secret and somehow deserves its fame. Another major step came when I took part in a green smoothie program for 2 weeks & after that it became clear that it was malnutrition which had such a detrimental effect on my body & skin. This was so amazing as it seems to have taken away food cravings and the skin became purer and pores smaller. During that I started as well to take Golden Milk and I feel it adds to the overall well being - it certainly relaxes & centers. Furthermore I read on this site it is good for the female reproductive system - again I can not give specifics but it seems to feel good. What I learned from this website is that everybody finds something which works for them there are certainly subtleties where only we ourselves can know what is good at each time.
