Turmeric Tincture - Nature’s Golden Medicine

Step 1

Before you start, make sure to sterilize all your tools and containers - any spoon, jar, blender jug that would come in contact with the turmeric tincture must be well washed and sterilized.

Step 2

Then grate the turmeric. Make sure to wear gloves to prevent your hands from staining in yellow. You can also blend it in a food processor/blender just long enough to break it down into tiny bits. *

Step 3

Add the grated turmeric into a sterilized glass container. Add the black pepper and acerola cherry powder. **

Step 4

Pour the alcohol over, then add the water.

Step 5

Stir well and put away in a dark cupboard for 6 weeks.

Step 6

Every couple of days, open the jar and stir with clean spoon. Put back in the cupboard.

Step 7

In 6-weeks time, this mixture can be drained and stored in little darkened dropper bottles. Then it's ready to be used.

Step 8

Dissolve 0.5 ml (about 10 drops) tincture in a glass of water and take 1-2 times a day.
