Turmeric is a spice but also a precious medicine. Applying fresh turmeric to wounds not only prevents infection but also heals quickly without leaving ugly scars. Turmeric essence (curcumin) has the effect of increasing bile secretion, supporting digestion but does not increase gastric juice secretion. Therefore, when suffering from stomach ulcers, many people often use fresh turmeric or turmeric essence, both are good. In addition, turmeric also inhibits the ability to form tumors in the stomach and other places.

In traditional medicine, honey is both a tonic and has antibacterial properties. Honey contains glucose, fruit sugar... and many vitamins B1, B2, B6, E,... The vitamins in honey stimulate metabolism. Potassium and magnesium (normalized form) stimulate appetite, increase organic acid content and improve digestion, pollen grains in honey enhance immunity. For the stomach, honey reduces acid secretion so the symptoms of pain and burning will quickly disappear.

That is why people often use turmeric and honey as medicine to treat stomach pain. Usually every day, use 12g of turmeric mixed with 6g of honey to make pills, the results are very good.

If you drink turmeric and honey regularly, it will nourish, calm your nerves and heal stomach ulcers. This is a very good medicine so you don’t have to worry about using it for a long time.
