While most of us have used turmeric as a spice in our food, very few are aware of the beneficial natural remedy that can be made by combining turmeric with honey, or “golden honey."
Turmeric boosts the body's natural defenses, eliminates disease-causing bacteria, and has potent anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic qualities.
Additionally, honey "Any honey has antibacterial properties because bees add an enzyme that produces hydrogen peroxide," stated Peter Molan, the director of the University of Waikato's Honey Research Unit in New Zealand.
