The remedy
This remedy uses only two ingredients:
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
2 Tbsp aloe gel
Then: To get the gel scrape the pulp out of the actual aloe plant and blend until smooth without any water. One plant can last you about a week, you just have to keep it in the fridge in a close container. Then, first thing in the morning mix the two remedy ingredients well and drink. Do this daily.
Taking turmeric in aloe gel base is one of the most common Ayurvedic preparations. It is good for all constitutions and stimulates and cleanses the liver, promotes the circulation of blood, cleanses the blood and lymphatics, eases menstruation, stops excess bleeding, and promotes the healing of sores and wounds. It’s an amazing remedy for acne too. This Ayurvedic formula also regulates sugar and fat metabolism which eases the job of the liver.
