Herbal : (Vicco) Turmeric The Wonder Herb For Skin Problems, Acne

From times immemorial, Turmeric, commonly known as 'haldi', has been used by the Ayurvedic and the Unani practitioners in India as a stomachie, tonic and a blood purifier. It is also used as an antiperiodic and alterative. Turmeric mixed with warm milk is a household remedy and is said to be beneficial in common cold. The fresh juice from the rhizome, a paste prepared from it or a decoction made from the plant, is often used as a local application as well as internally in the treatment of leprosy, snakebite, vomiting of pregnancy and affections of the liver. Murray advocate its use in troublesome diarrhoeas.

Baden Powell found it to be effective in intermittent fevers and dropsy. The fresh juice from the rhizomes is believed to have antiparasitic property in many skin affections. Externally it is used for indolent ulcers and a paste made from the powdered rhizomes along with caustic lime forms a soothing remedy for inflamed joints. A decoction made from the rhizome is said to relieve pain of purulent opthalmia. It is still a common practice in India to use a piece of cloth soaked in turmeric solution for wiping away discharges of acute conjunctivitis and ophthalmia. Finely powdered turmeric mixed with alum forms a common household remedy for otorrhoea. A thick watery paste of turmeric is used for sprinkling on many auspicious occasions amongst the Hindus in this country in place of saffron because of its colour. The smoke produced by sprinkling

powdered turmeric over glowing charcoal is said to relieve pain to scorpion bite.

Turmeric is a wonderfully versatile root that has been in every Indian household for centuries. Its amazing properties range from flavouring curries, to sterilizing wounds, to grooming women. From queens to commoners, turmeric has been indispensable as a skin-care preparation and grooming aid for every woman. This is because 63% of the body functions are said to be controlled by the skin alone.
