Through the ages, turmeric has been sought as a medicinal herb. In Sanskrit Turmeric is called “Kanchani, the “Golden Goddess.” This amazing herb has long been revered by ayurvedic healers for its diverse and powerful healing properties. Herbalists familiar with turmeric’s stimulant and tonic effects have prescribed the juice extracted from the root of the plant as an internal antiseptic and an antidote to blood poisoning. In traditional folk medicine, the dried root is ground and rubbed on the skin to maintain a healthy skin. Mixed with coconut oil, it speeds the healing of wounds and minimizes scarring.
Turmeric has been valued for centuries as a natural cosmetic and dye. It is turmeric that gives the robes of Buddhist monks their vibrant saffron hue. The bright red forehead mark worn by some Hindu women is created by mixing turmeric with lime juice.
Turmeric is what makes mustard yellow. It is also the principal ingredient in curry powder. It is turmeric, in fact, that gives curry powder its characteristic deep yellow color. Turmeric is also used to add color to foods such as butter, margarine, and cheese, to tint cotton, silk, paper, wood and cosmetics, as a food preservative, and to make pickles.
A relative of ginger, Turmeric is a perennial plant that grows up to five feet high in the tropical regions of Southern Asia. It has trumpet-shaped yellow flowers. Turmeric is fragrant and has an earthy, bitter, peppery taste. Like ginger, it creates a sensation of warmth when eaten. The dried roots of Turmeric are ground into a deep yellow spice commonly used in curries and other South Asian dishes. Sangli, a town in the southern part of the Indian state of Maharashtra, is the largest and most important trading center for Turmeric in Asia and perhaps in the entire world.
In the West we are primarily familiar with turmeric in its dried, powdered form, but in the East fresh turmeric is widely used. Fresh turmeric has a distinct flavor, very pleasing though delicate. The deep orange color of chopped fresh turmeric root imparts a rich yellow to curries, soups and stews and rice dishes. It is also used along with chopped garlic and ground white pepper to flavor the delicious turmeric fried fish so popular in Southern Thailand.
Therapeutic use of turmeric was described in traditional Chinese and Indian medicine as early as the 7th century AD. Asian folk medicine used turmeric to treat diarrhea, fever, bronchitis, colds, parasitic worms and leprosy, as well as bladder and kidney inflammations.
In India and Malaysia, homemade turmeric paste is applied directly onto the skin to resolve nutritional deficiencies typically found in cancer patients, a practice which is now being investigated by Western scientists. In India turmeric is used for minor cuts and burns. Whenever there is a cut or a bruise, the home remedy is to reach for turmeric powder.
Today, scientists in the Western world are beginning to suspect what the people of rural India have known for centuries. Modern science is catching on to the amazing healing qualities of turmeric and research is being kicked into high gear.
According to a 2005 article in the Wall Street Journal titled, “Common Indian Spice Stirs Hope,” research activity into curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, is exploding. Two hundred and fifty-six curcumin papers were published in the past year, according to a search of the U.S. National Library of Medicine. Supplement sales are on the increase, and the U.S. National Institutes of Health has four clinical trials underway to study curcumin treatment for pancreatic cancer, multiple myeloma, Alzheimer’s and colorectal cancer.

The antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic properties of curcumin derived from turmeric are undergoing intense research. While researchers had originally thought curcumin primarily has anti-inflammatory properties, the growing realization that cancer can result from inflammation has spurred mounting interest in this versatile and valuable spice. It is surely significant that the incidence of the top four cancers in the US—colon, breast, prostate, and lung—is ten times lower in India. 2 Moreover, recent studies have noted that elderly individuals living in Indian villages appear to have the lowest incidence of Alzheimer's disease in the world, with just 1% of those aged 65 and older contracting the degenerative brain condition.

Turmeric—the Golden Goddess—is clearly coming into its own.

Whole House Water Filtration Kit (Version II)
Whole House Water Filtration Kit (Version II) is NOW AVAILABLE. The price of that system is $1,695.00. The new system has several advantages, including:
- Automatic Valves that remains open in case of power outage. This is called a normally open solenoid valve. In this case a normally open valve ensures water flow to your house even in the case of power outage. You get 2 normally open and 2 normally closed solenoid valves with each system. You can buy the solenoid valves separately for $114.24 each.
- Computerized Main Control Valve, allowing for you to set the exact backwash time needed. Ten- minute backwash is sufficient for the Activated Carbon. This reduces water consumption for backwash. Currently the backwash is 15 minutes, then a 50-minute break, followed by a second backwash of 15 minutes. This consumes 120 gallons of water (30 minutes x 4 GPM). We can reduce the backwash time to 10 minutes backwash plus 6 minutes rinse. This would consume 64 gallons (16 minutes x 4 GPM).

Fear in the fields: How hazardous wastes become fertilizer By Duff Wilson, Seattle Times staff reporter, Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. "It's really unbelievable what's happening, but it's true.

The article is a summary of a book by Duff Wilson, Fateful Harvest. This book has received the following reviews: "Timely and chilling." - Library Journal "Gripping.... [Wilson] never forgets this is a story foremost about individual human beings rather than a policy tract." - Seattle Times "A crackerjack investigative report on the toxic waste in the fertilizer that helps grow the food on our table." - Kirkus Reviews |
