Conventional antibiotics are extremely overused. According to the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) , a whopping 833 antibiotics are prescribed on average per every 1,000 people. These antibiotics are making us very sick. In fact, most health problems can be successfully treated with a few natural remedies such as honey and turmeric.
Honey is a powerful antibiotic
Did you know that honey fights infections on many levels and doesn’t cause resistant bacteria like conventional antibiotics? Honey is so powerful for destroying bacteria that it should be used first when fighting infections. Scientists found that honey is more powerful than all antibiotics available. Published in the European Journal of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, the study discovered that the honey was able to kill every bacteria or pathogen they tested it on, and concluded that it could be applied topically to humans to help fight infections like cuts and insect bites. They also noted it could be taken internally.

“Our research is the first to clearly show that these honey-based products could in many cases replace antibiotic creams on wounds and equipment such as catheters. Using honey as an intermediate treatment could also prolong the life of antibiotics.” – Dr. Dee Carter (source)
Turmeric is a powerful Antibiotic
The most important compounds in turmeric are called curcuminoids. As a polyphenol, curcumin possesses several healing properties. It’s a strong antioxidant and has anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antibacterial and anti-fungal properties.
Beware, a lot of turmeric on the market is fake. It’s very important to get pure turmeric for it’s therapeutic benefits. This is the one I use – here The quality matters for this purpose
Turmeric infused honey
Ingredients
¼ cup raw honey (preferably manuka – here )
1 teaspoon ground turmeric. It has to be therapeutic quality like this one
Add 2 drops black pepper essential oil (or coconut oil for greater absorption)
Instructions
Mix ¼ cup of honey with a teaspoon of turmeric powder.
Mix well, cover, and store at room temperature.
Just give the honey mixture a quick stir before using each time.

Take WHEATGRASS
These wheatgrass flu shots are your answer to improved immunity and better health this winter season. Wheatgrass is one of the most effective healers, containing over 90 minerals, all 17 amino acids (building blocks of protein), and vitamins A, C, E, I, K and B-complex.
It is also composed of 70% chlorophyll, which is one of the best blood-builders out there. Need I say more? all you need is just one shot a day – find it here
Hi there Anya. How often would one take the Turmeric and Honey and would you just take a teaspoon or Tablespoon of the mixture?
Regards
Frances from South Africa
Hi Frances! I would take 2 tablespoons a day! It will significantly strengthen your immune system!
Hi Ayna, you might want to tell people if their on blood thinners to cut back the Turmeric. It’s a natural blood thinner! I was taking it and started getting noise bleeds!
Thank you for telling us !!!
infact also greens are bloodthinners…..so many would not need blood thinnersat all if they drank enough plain water daily 🙂
That’s wrong. I drink close to eight 22 ounce waters a day and I was riddled with a full right lung, half a left lung of PE’s and a left leg with DVT’s. No genetic disorders found, no reason for it to happen. I’m now on thinners for life. I also eat heavily raw garlic, and onions. Still had blood clots.
have you tried green juice and/or omega 3’s? I have heard they are good blood thinners and am curious to see if you have tried either one.
Greens are not blood thinners.
Most greens contain high levels of vitamin K which counteracts and serves as an antidote to many blood thinners.
Hi Sherrie. What i do because I take aspirin from. Having a heart attack is take the aspirin at night around 12 then take my tumeric at 12 midday. Im not a dr but I find i have zero problems because they are 12hrs apart. Cheers, Steve
Hi Ayna,,,,
Do you know how much of this combination to take to fight infections in the body and for how long,,,,
Hi Tanya! You can take one tablespoon a day!
How can you tell if the tumeric is fake?
I suffer from hypothyroidism and fatigue.
How much should I take per day?
You can take up to a tablespoon of it a day!
Have you tried this? I also suffer from the same.
This is amazing. A standard in our home. I add black pepper to the mix to increase the bioavailability of Curcumin in the Turmeric. And, yes, those on blood thinners need to exercise caution
Then use turmeric instead of rat poison!!!
Why this comment, Sara. This us a health thread not one for negative comments.
I think they may be referrinig to Coumadin that was used to kill rats.
Could this be applied to staph infection or acne?
Hi Brandy! I would definitely try!
Would Turmeric be good to shrink fibroids of the uterus? If not, do you know what would?
Thank you very much your help God bless you!
We used 4drops of each of oil of oregano and tea tree oil on a gauze taped over the wound for 24hours for a staph infection. This worked amazingly well.
A staph infection is very serious and can be deadly if not treated properly. An infectious disease doctor should diagnose and treat staph infections.
Would it be safe for children of the ages 3-10 years old? If so what would be the dosage?
Hi Sarah, I’ve been giving it to my son – 2 teaspoons a day
I thought turmeric was only fat soluble?
True. It is fat soluable.
Why do a lot of people use powder rather than fresh turmeric? Is there a difference and what is better?
Hi Lizz! Powder is just most convenient. You can consume a larger amount when it’s in a powdered form
How do you take this? In your coffee? Or just by the spoonful? Mix it in food?
HI Veronica! I add it into a smoothie or just by the spoonful.
I mix my honey, turmeric and bit of cinnamon in a cup of warm almond milk!
How do you make the weathgrass shots?
Hi Michelle! I add a tablespoon a day to my smoothies or you can mix it with any beverage.
Thank you so much for sharing this valuable home remedies with the world. I’ve heard about the goodness of turmeric but never thought mixing it up with honey. I think its going to work greatly.

My Pleasure, Fiona!
Thanks for the knowledge
Ok
HI Eric! My pleasure!
What age would you start children on? My son is 10 months (I’m assuming way too young) and had his first flu shot; which made him extremely sick. I’d love to build his immune system up to not need that again.
Hi Honu! No younger than 2 years old.
What about it shop bought Manuka honey.Is this worth taking. Thank you
HI Jo! As long as it’s raw organic.
You can mix this with warm almond milk and drink before going to bed. Tastes amazing in smoothies as well.
Is this safe to take when breastfeeding? My little one is 4m old. If so, how much per day?
I would ask your doctor but it’s very safe as long as you don’t give the mixture to the baby.
For the infused honey, do you recommend taking it daily or only when feeling under the weather? And if daily, is it safe for children daily too (my son is 12)?
HI Karen! Honey is safe for kids from 2 and up. I give the mixture to my son daily as it strengthens the immune system.
Hi and thank you for sharing! I was thinking of using a high-quality turmeric essential oil instead of the powder. Have you tried that yet, and what do you think?
Hi Julie! Yes, you can use turmeric essential oil. I sometimes do the same.
Thanks for the informatio. Ayurveda is really a magical and properway to treat any physical proble.
How can a person with Type II diabetes use this?
HI Susan! I would ask your doctor about the honey. Turmeric works great for type II diabetes though.
What brand of turmeric should I get?
Hi Lisa! You can buy it from livingtraditionallystore.com
i have high blood pressure and take blood pressure pills will the turmeric and honey help me in anyway??
Hi Jay! This mixture is very beneficial overall.
Hi,
How many servings would one expect to get from this recipe for lack of a better word?
I normally just make it as I go. One serving at a time.
How do you know if the turmeric is real
Hi Penny! You just need to trust the company that they use organic pure sources
Can you use a drop of therapeutic tumeric essential oil instead of the powder?
Hi Kim! Yes you can!
If replacing the powder with essential oil how much should be used?
Hi Christine! I would use 2 drops at a time
Apparently some of these readers have never experienced a blood clot necessitating the need for blood thinners. It’s a very fine line to walk and mess around with. There are many things you cannot eat, or should not eat while on blood thinners and water alone does not cut it. They saved my life.
Hi there. Just want to know if turmeric n honey can be consumed for sinus patient?
Hi Ruth! Absolutely! It’s very safe and effective
thank you for your work for humanity. it is hard to find good honey anymore. i remember back in the sixtys when the govn. gave it away.when the rockefellers took over the ama- medical industrial complex they – did away with all nutrition in healing, all holistic doctors and there practices. i wanted to let you know just how dangerous and deadly and right in our faces the all out attack on humanity is. look on the back of a crest tooth paste tube. it says- if swallowed contact poison control center immediantly. keep out of reach of children six and under. i mean holy moly wow poison right in our faces. and humanity does nothing as crest is a leading tooth-paste. talk about a dumbed down human race.
HI Luther! Thank you and you are absolutely right!
Anya, this blend also kills intestinal parasites?
Thank you
I would use oregano essential oil for that!
What can I take to fight yeast infections?
Hi Silvia! Oregano oil mixed with coconut oil or 2 drops in a glass of water.
Hey, everyone who is worried about turmeric being a blood thinner … just take a vitamin K1 every day to counteract that.
if you use tumeric essential oil… how many drops are equivalent to the powder
Hi Karly! I would use 2 drops at a time.
Hi,
Can the Honey and Turmeric help with abscess on my tonsils?
Thank you God Bless You
Can local honey be used? Found at a farmer’s market, not from a supermarket. Also does it have to be that special turmeric? I can’t order online and only have the Bulk Barn to purchase it from.
Local raw honey is the best!
