I cannot believe this actually is working. I assumed the large lump near my elbow was a boil; it had not come to a head. I used a 1/2 a tbsp of tumeric in water, as I had a cold & a fever & was hoping to knock those out too. Approx 6 hours later the boil is much smaller! (I also applied it topically). I didn't believe I would see results this fast. I am amazed. Oh, & the fever, which previously wouldn't break, was gone in about an hour.

WOW. The Turmeric powder works wonders! The end of October I had to go to the doctor for a very large boil on my groin. It left a hole the size of a golf ball. I then went to a surgeon who gave me bacton (the nose antibiotic.), hibicleanse (sorry not sure how to spell these words). The doctor took a culture of the boil and it came back not as a staph infection. I was on amoxcilion to treat the infection. Well, two nights ago I notice another boil forming in the exact same spot! My birthday is on Saturday and Christmas is comming! I did not want to have to go to the doctor again!I Got on the internet and found the website and immediately bought Turmeric powder. I bought it in the evening so I only took 2 tsp of it. I woke up in the morning and the boil was almost 0.00 gone. Today it is gone and the scars from the previous boils I have had look a lot better. I will keep you posted if anything changes. God's Blessings!

I used turmeric to treat a case of reoccurring boils in my armpit. I had been to the doctor twice for this and was given erythromycin (sp?) both times, but the boils kept coming back. I decided to go try the natural route and found that turmeric caused the boil to drain completely on its own within two days of taking it three times a day. It's been nearly a week now & the firmness where the boil used to be is quickly disappearing as well. No need to go to a doctor and have the boil painfully cut open and drained & no need for antibiotics. Turmeric is superior to anything that my doctor did for me.

Wow Outstanding Turmeric spice cured my sons boils. our children have been getting boils on and off for two years and when one gets a boil they all get them within a week. I tried the Turmeric spice like in your web site a teaspoon in warm water three times a day and i was amazed the three boils were half the size by 24 hrs and two boils were gone in two days and the third boil which was about 3 inches in size took three days. No other children got them and they have all fully healed. I am now giving all my children a dose of Turmeric just to clean up there blood. Thank you so much for your website.

I developed a large boil under my armpit. It grew to the size of a quarter. It was big, red and painful. I first tryed the turmeric powder in juice but that was too much and the taste was strong and not pleasant, so I switced to the 450mg tabs three times a day. I'm happy to say my boil is almost healed. I also used neosporin ointment to help with infection. ' There is a lot you can do but the turmeric is key. Thank goodness I found this site. YOU ARE SO APPRECIATED!"

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!

Ok, so I first got my boil about less than a week ago on my hip. Then I started getting them everywhere like my bum, my stomach, thighs, back, neck, ear, nose, and face. I mean it spread like crazy. I just had a UTI and was put on cipro, so I am sure that exacerbated the boils break out. I never have it before. Anyway, I came upon this site because I have been desperate to get rid of these nasty things. I bought the turmeric from my local grocery store for $5. I took 3 tsp w/ 4 oz of room temp water 4x yesterday. I took a hot shower w/soap. I lanced the boils that had a white tip and were ready w/ cotton pads drenched w/ bactine. I put neosporin w/ turmeric on the boils and wore clothes I didnt care about staining. Went to bed and woke up right now and looked at my boils. They are flat and scabbed over! and the pain is 80% gone. the biggest one the size of a large grape was on the back of my thigh and I can stretch and walk w/o feeling pain. It is amazing. Thank you so much for this site. I hope I never get boils again, but if I do I know what to do. I will continue to use the turmeric until it completely resolves. My boyfriend told me to make some curry w/ the leftover turmeric. I think from now on, turmeric will be in my diet. I hope that it can prevent future boils. I am a 26 y/o Female and this is very, very embarassing! I am sure it is for everyone as well. Also, the taste isnt that bad. I had juice as a chaser.

Thank you for your wonderful website! I tried your tumeric cure on my 8 1/2 year old son, who just recently had school sores (impetigo), and then started to develop a boil (which is exactly what happened last time he had school sores at age 5 - he then went on to have boils for about 4 months). I gave him a tsp of tumeric in a chocolate milkshake 3 x per day for two days and the boil totally dried up and didn't get big or painful...and, no more boils have developed after 1 week! Awesome!!

WORKED TEMPORARILY

Turmeric is great in the beginning for boils, But, please note that it does take more doses more frequently once they continue to come back in time !I have been getting them 2004 and each summer they get harder and harder to treat ! The first year they were surgically removed because they were so deep and also treated with an antibiotic called Minocycline. This helped temporarily, but once when I was out of town on a weekend, and unable to find medical attention, I tried the turmeric cure from this site. It was miraculous for about 9 mos., but then they came back the next summer extremely aggressive !! It took me larger doses,(2 heaping tablespoons 3 times daily), and they were taking longer to heal, or would just stay down in size without going away for weeks. That much turmeric will have your stomach feeling quite sick along with diarhia !! I finally went back to the doctor and back on the Minocycline, but it also took longer than the last time using it to clear up the staph infection. My son is almost 4, and he too suffers with them, but his immune system is much stronger than mine. He is autistic and the taste of the turmeric will make him vomit, so when he gets one coming out, I just cook something for him with the turmeric in it ! Preferably something in red gravy, (like spagetti & meat sauce). He has never been on antibiotics and I'm trying to keep it that way, but as soon as the turmeric cures one of his boils, another one surfaces in another place on his little body. The doctor told me that it is getting so out-of-hand that pretty soon there will be nothing they can do for it. He told me that the staph that is out there now is a product from our own modern medicine - a combination of many antibiotics produced that have built up a resistency and immunity to everything they have to fight it. It is a growing and most aggresive bacteria that becomes increasingly immune to anything. Sorry to say it, but he may very well be right. I wish the turmeric would continue to work for me, but the staph is starting to get immune to it as well. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated !!

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 had a staph problem 4 close to 7yrs. of course i started with the doctors antibiotics ciprotab, peflotab etc. actually saw some alternative medical practitioners in my country taking one concotion or another for yrs with no remedy. i luckily had a good relief some 2 yrs ago after i was admitted with an anti biotic drip and took green vegetable juice locally called "ugwu" in my country but like a yr after some boils appeared and it came back.i came across this page on alkanizng ur body and i took the 3* a day teaspoon of baking soda mixed with 1/4 teaspoon of tumeric.i also took colloidal silver internally 3* a day,euchinicae 3* and a garlic tablet made by kwai 3* a day. i took the antibiotic ciprotab afterwards for a week and i felt very much relieved though i still have some mild movements in my stomach. 4 now i am taking the regular baking soda and tumeric mixed in half cup of water 2* daily, euchinicae once and the kwai garlic once. i feel very good but i am thinking of adding the colloidal silver to my supplements to keep it in check.

Tumeric, magnesium & zinc rids boils. Since June of 07 I started getting very painfull boils every few weeks about 20 in total. After several courses of antibiotics failed I began heavy research. Discovered the three ingredients when taken during the first 12 hours stop the bacteria chain which causes the boil from developing. I immediately apply a magnesium/zinc based lotion - found "LaCure Dead Sea foot lotion" works best. It contains, salts, minerals including magnesium & zinc plus it is a natural antibacterial and anti fungal lotion. I apply it 3 times daily. Then I take magnesium with zinc supplements orally 200-400mg daily and also drink a hot tumeric tea 2-3 times a day until the bump is cleared. Usually takes 2-4 days. Since doing this any bumps that appear never advance to full blowm boils and I no longer get the pain that was accompanied. This website helped me alot.
