I was dealing with a boil on my penis for a week. After consulting with my doctor about treatment options I ran across your web site and decided to try Tumeric. IT CURED AND DRAINED THE BOIL!!!! THE SAME DAY!! 3 doses @ 285mg capsules at: 95% curcumin did the trick. I am so happy, and my mate is too. Thank you mother earth and thank you Earth Clinic.

Thank You so much this Turmeric is a spice from heaven. My husband and I have been fighting staph for almost a year and Turmeric is the cure. We have spent I know over $3,000 on doctor visits for lancing and antibiotics. I slacked off the Turmeric for a few days and I the little red bumps started to appear. I will never stop taking my herbs and vitamins again. Thanks Again!

Turmeric Cured boils Had a boil up near the Anal entry (Its VERY UNCOMFORTABLE) and read you need surgery to make it disappear. I thought no way must be another way to make it go away. Stumbled across this site and found turmeric can help. I put turmeric in water about 2 teaspoons for 2 weeks and now its gone! Thanks for this website I know it has helped alot of people including myself. PEACE

Thank you so much for creating the best website i have ever found!! A couple of months ago i was struck with a boil which grew to the size of half a walnut, located smack bang in the middle of my back. I visited the chemist who recommended a drawing salve which i applied religiously twice daily with clean dressings, nothing happened except the boil grew bigger and more painful until it was the size of half a golfball. This was so painful i could not sit and lean on a seat with a back on it, could not lie on my back at all making trying to get to sleep a very painful and tearful process and had to drive my car in a very strange and uncomfortable position as not to let my back touch the carseat. In complete desperation I searched the internet for a natural cure, which i trust in far more than anything a doctor would prescribe. I came across this amazing site and read all about the turmeric cure. It sounded pretty good and I had nothing to lose by giving it a try, except that is for my boil. The results were completely amazing. I decided to try and really blast this boil away. On the first night i drank two glasses of water with two teaspoons of turmeric dissolved in each. Well the next morning i didnt know if i was awake or still dreaming, the boil had lost its redness, seemed to be less swollen and was no longer painful to touch. I continued the turmeric, taking a glass of water with 1 to 2 teaspoons of turmeric three times a day, morning, noon and night. By day 3 the boil had shrunk to half its size and had begun to leak out, within a weak it was nothing but a small raised lump of normal looking skin, and at the end of two weeks of taking turmeric it was completely gone, with no sign of it ever being there, no scar, nothing. I was so happy, i could finally be free to sit, lie and move around as normal, and man it felt good. I stopped taking the turmeric and began living my life again. Then two weeks ago i noticed a lump beginning on my collarbone, hoping it would go away i ignored it but it grew into a boil about 2cm long, 1 cm wide and half a cm high and was getting painful. Well, i reached into the back of the pantry where the leftover turmeric had sat since my last boil and made myself a glassful (the night before last). The next morning i swear it had shrunk to half the size. I continued with 3xdaily turmeric and this morning there was only a slight raised area which is not red or painful. At this rate it will be gone in a day or two and i will be able to wear the nice tops i bought especially for the festive season celebrations without embarrassment. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for this great site which has cured me in such a quick, healthy, painless and inexpensive way. If only there wasnt so much money to be made by drug companies maybe these natural remedies would be more widely promoted. Once again i thank you from the bottom of my heart and hope that other sufferers will also benefit from the wisdom of this site. I am today starting on another suggestion i have read about on your site, apple cider vinegar, which i hope will have a good result on acne, will let you know, cheers.

I had a boil that came up on Friday and I wasn`t sure what it was, I did`nt mess with it for a day then it started getting bigger and hurting worse, well, I thought it might be a cyst,I only had one boil before and that was when I was an early teenager.So I looked up cyst and it also said it could be a boil,so I am allfor home remedies,and found this site for boils,well I tried the tomato,did`nt work,tried the garlic,went everywhere to find drawing salve and couldn`t find none,So I went and bought the Tumeric and I drink one glass of it,yuck!So I put tumeric,baking soda,and neosporin ,made a paste like on gauze and kept it on there after 1 day it started draining and now on the 3rd. day of my paste the pain is gone,a little bit of the core is still there ,but I put more on and hope it will be out by morning.My hubby also had gotten a boil and he thought he could squeeze it out and take bleach baths ,well now his have grown in size and spread he has about 2 big ones and 4 small ones, and he is now taking my advice on the Tumeric,We also had some of the spice in some Vegetable Soup. This is the best remedy and I am so glad I found it Thank You So Much Earth Clinic!!!Keep up the good work ,anything is better than paying Dr`s high prices.

I have been suffering from boils on my face on and off since I was a teenager, and there has never been anything that could be done except wait for them to go down. They have been so bad that I don't want to leave the house. With a new one on my forehead that was growing and becoming extremely painful, I thought I would do some research to see if there was any kind of heat treatment that would help. I found this website, and tried the turmeric treatment. It is the second day and the boil has come to a head. This never happened before. I would squeeze and puncture the area, but nothing ever came of it. Thank you so much for sharing this safe, easy, and cheap remedy that really works! Now I don't have to look like the elephant man for the next two weeks!

Turmeric is a Miracle. Yes, Yes!! I have had suffering from boils for 3 years plus. A recurring one under my right arm (very painful) and several on buttocks. Went to a few doctors but nothing worked to stop them coming. Recently I read on this site and I gave a try to turmeric cure. I should ssy the results were surprising. Within days the presistent nasty boils started to heal and so far keeping on good consumption of turmeric they didn't came back. Alex

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!

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!!!!!

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

Update: I took a total of only four doses of the Turmeric for the horrible boil I had suffered with for over two weeks. At the end of the second day, and after only four glasses of the Turmeric, the boil is completely gone. I wouldn't have believed it if it hadn't happened to me. Thank you again for this awesome website. I'm getting ready to search out solutions for my husband and his acid reflux. You are a godsend.

Just wanted to add that turmeric is used in India on infants as well with good results. Babies are regularly bathed with turmeric paste to prevent infections (not on the head though, since it prevents hair growth). The quality of the turmeric must be checked though and the infant's skin watched carefully the first few days after using. A harmless side effect is that it colors the skin/nails for a while. A pinch is also put on the baby's tongue and used to clean it.

I have had a condition called Hidradentitis for over 15 years. I have been treated with antibiotics and antibiotic creams all this time with little to no lasting effects. My doctor wants to perform surgery to which I have said no because there is an 80% chance of reoccurence. Imagine my shock when a friend told me about this site and I read with interest many letters regarding using turmeric to get rid of this problem. I was in the middle of a flare up and started using turmeric on March 22, 2007 and within days it began to subside. It is now April 1 and I continue to take 3 capsules per day and I am almost completely healed. It has been an amazing journey for me as I never thought I would see the day that this would clear up. I was not a believer of the holistic approach to cures but after using this for less than two weeks and to see the results I am a believer. Keep up the great work and I will continue to use your site and have recommended to family and friends. Sincerely, Karen

I am now in the 3rd week since beginning turmeric. I am taking 600mg, 3X daily and my boils/blisters are almost gone. YEA!! My family reminded me that it was not 2005, but 2004 that I began getting boils-a long and horrible ordeal. I am working to raise my PH level to help the cure. Thank God for this site, Ted and all those who've posted! I am getting my life back and it's great!
