Many of us may have used turmeric in cooking, or even as a natural remedy for several ailments. As a spice, it is greatly notable for its strong anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic properties, and for its ability to kill bacteria and boost the body's immune system. It's no surprise that it's so widely sought after, given all these benefits. However, did you know that mixing it with just one other natural ingredient can turn it into something even more potent?
Of all the natural antibiotics nature has to offer, golden honey has been found to be one of the strongest ones ever known.
