| Turmeric root |
Turmeric can be an amazing supplement and diet addition. Safe to take every day, though a small percentage of people are allergic to turmeric so try lightly to see for yourself. Turmeric can also be applied to skin and the fresh root can be juiced for health. It is a sacred tradition to coat the bride and groom in India the day before their wedding in turmeric paste. Hehe, makes your skin like a a spray tan for a few days, but it will rid skin infections and acne extremely well! Amazing bath addition though you will have to scrub your tub when you are done. Ajax works great. Enjoy your turmeric experiences.
