Many of you have had experience using turmeric as a spice, someone for preparation of the widely known Golden Milk and the other recognized it only as a strong yellow powder found in healthy food stores. Only few know that the Golden Honey (turmeric combined with honey) becomes an invaluable natural remedy.
Turmeric contains curcumin (polyphenol – identified as an essential active ingredient) applied in over 150 therapeutic activities. It is traditional natural remedy, antioxidant with anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic properties.
Turmeric also has strong anti-inflammatory properties, destroys bacteria that cause diseases and promotes the body’s natural defenses.
Unlike synthetic antibiotics found in the pharmacy, turmeric has no negative effects on the intestinal micro flora.
The use of Golden Honey improves digestion and increases the beneficial flora activity in the gut. This blend is the strongest antibiotic certified by Ayurveda.

Take 1/2 of what??? tablespoon? teaspoon? whole jar?? I copied the remedy, PLEASE be specific on how to use it! I’m very sincere in wanting this info.
Sorry for the inconvenience, it should be used teaspoon!
Patricia, No kidding!
As a believer in the benefits of Turmeric, I’m vetting the whole article for accuracy but aside from the hemophilia question below, don’t see anything here that could harm given it’s turmeric and honey.
Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder (blood won’t clot) it makes sense that thinner blood might lower blood pressure and turmeric is said to strengthen veins and arteries so that may be good for high blood pressure. But should be used with caution in hemophilia! More research needed!
Typo in ingredients: 100 grams = 3.5 oz or 7 Tablespoons approximately. So author meant to say 3.5 oz or 100 grams, not 5 oz?
Also note there are differences in measurement of liquids vs dry ingredients. 1 Tablespoon = 3 Teaspoons [US, UK or Metric]
I had to look it up and I could be wrong, given my math issues.
Here’s what I found:
“A gram is a unit that measures mass, which has to do with the amount of matter something contains. Pounds are also measurements of mass. For our purposes, mass and weight are about the same thing. It doesn’t matter how much space something takes up — a pound of feathers would take up much more space than a pound of steel.
A teaspoon measures volume, which is the space that something takes up (cups, teaspoons, and tablespoons all measure volume).
Trying to convert grams to teaspoons is like converting ounces to teaspoons: every ingredient is going to be different, so one converter can’t convert everything. To convert grams to teaspoons you’ll need to know that one teaspoon of granulated white sugar is close to four grams. So if you buy a bottle of cola with 44 grams of sugar, you can divide 44 by 4, which is equal to 11 teaspoons of sugar. That’s a lot of sugar.
Hope this helps.
Golden Honey,thanks for informing such a wonderful, natural home antibiotic.
Is it safe to use during pregnancy and/or breastfeeding?
Turmeric has been considered safe when used as a spice in foods during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, turmeric has been found to cause uterine stimulation and to stimulate menstrual flow. Caution is therefore warranted during pregnancy. There isn’t enough information to rate the safety of turmeric during breast-feeding. Turmeric taken by mouth has not been shown to cause abnormal fetal development. It is recommended to consult your doctor!
Turmeric is part of our indian diet from hundreds of years. we add pich of turmeric in almost every food. Its perfectly safe in pregnancy and breast feeds.
also pich of turmeric+hot milk + pepper powder is given as house hold remedy for common colds even during pregnancy.

my experience
Is this safe for children? Does it need to be refridgerated?
It is safe to be consumed by children’s and it can be kept on a room temperature, does not have to be kept in a refrigerator.
This will probably work great if you need an antibiotic, but colds and flu are viral illnesses that aren’t helped by antibiotics. However, taking this while you have a cold or flu could help stave off a secondary infection.
Turmeric is a general antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and it also has antiviral properties, so it would work to address the virus directly while also supporting the immune system. Black pepper increases the bioavailability of turmeric by about 1000 times. So that’s probably a good idea too.
Yes, I understand that black pepper is the catalyst for Tumeric to be fully absorbed throughout the body.
children under a year shouldn’t have honey yet.
I will be trying this. I wonder if it’s safe to make a small batch up & keep for winter use?
This golden honey mixture is all-natural and has no expiry date!
I use manuka honey where the active bio ingredient is 24+ that way I can be sure the grade of honey has a strong medicinal component
Is there a way to make with fresh turmeric root?
It should be used turmeric powder.
When it says to take 1 tsp. every hr. for the first day…does that mean the 1st 24 hrs.or during the daytime hrs?
During the daytime hours, when you are awake, consume ½ tsp. every hour
I was told u could use it if you have stones in your gallbladder…is that not right
If you have problems with the gallbladder you should avoid consuming turmeric.
What if you have had your gallbladder removed?
Use curcumin as medical grade not supermarket as hard to absorb.
I’m using Bio-grape Nutraceuticals organic
This is probably an odd question, but what if your gallbladder has been removed? Will this cause any problems?
Probably not, but you must consult with your doctor before consuming turmeric.
I have this in warm milk every night I have Crohns disease And was recommended to have Tumeric every day by my gastontologist
I came across this and because I am looking for something to help my non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. I had my gall bladder removed about 8 years ago. Can you please give your opinion if this or another natural remedy could help my fatty liver. The doctors say eat better and exercise but, I know something natural could help as well.

Do you really feel the need to put in a plug for a fake religion ? If you want to know the truth then read the Holy Bible and then and only then will you be telling the truth.
Clyde, rude. A true Christian would have no need to say that. The Hindu religion has been around thousands of years, much longer than Christianity. What would Jesus do? I think he’d say, “love and accept.”
