Gut Healing Turmeric Bites

Gut Healing Turmeric Bites

It’s been a rough couple of days. The best word to describe the way this whole mess started is “sharply.”

A few days ago, I started feeling a little off, as if my stomach were a little rumbly, and I was really bloated. I did not think much of it; it wasn’t the first time that my gut had given me trouble. Indigestion became a common problem after I turned 40.

After about three days, I started feeling a sharp pain in my stomach. I couldn’t think of a reason for it, so I started freaking out.

I went ahead and booked an appointment with a physician, and after doing a whole battery of tests, we couldn’t find anything wrong with my gut. But I was still in a lot of pain.

I had to do something. Then I remembered when I was going through a very stressful time, and I decided to open up and discuss my anxiety with my aunt.

She has been into holistic medicine and natural remedies for a long time. She checked one of her books and then grabbed a tincture bottle from her cabinet.

I can still remember very vividly the title of that book. It was called The Lost Book of Herbal Remedies by Nicole Apelian. My aunt said that it was her first-ever book of natural remedies, and it contains recipes for dealing with all kinds of symptoms.

At first, I thought she was joking. How on Earth could a tincture help me unwind and relax with everything that is going on right now?

And let me tell you…was I ever wrong!

In just a few days, I started feeling the effects of the tincture, and I could feel a real improvement.

I couldn’t believe it—the tincture was working. At that moment, I knew I had to always have it on hand. So as anyone would do these days, I decided to start looking for someone who sells it online.

Finding a trustworthy store that sells tinctures can be hard. It took me some time, but I found this store that coincidentally belongs to the same person who wrote that amazing book on natural remedies.

I guess someone who put in so much time and effort to write a comprehensive book would also sell some high-quality, ready-made remedies.

And now, because so many people are living a better life because of her study and advice, she has released a sequel to her first book, which completes it with even more information and recipes. Check it out here!

But I think that I’ve gone off the rails on this one…. Let’s get back to those turmeric bites.

This weekend I was supposed to visit my aunt again. She was having some car trouble, and I am the family’s go-to person when it comes to that.

As I arrived at my aunt’s house, I started feeling a little off again. She asked me about what was going on, and I told her about my recent gut problems. She went inside and grabbed a jar filled with something that resembled cookies.

She gave me one and saw I was a bit suspicious. So she told me that’s what she uses whenever she has an upset stomach and encouraged me to try one.

A few hours into my visit, I already felt the pain disappearing. But I wanted the recipe, so here it is:

TurmericBites - ingredients

What you’ll need:

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 7 tbsp powdered turmeric
  • 2 tbsp powdered ginger
  • 1 tbsp powdered marshmallow

I was impressed with the results, so I decided to do a little research on the ingredients. I knew that honey was good for you, but I didn’t know anything about the other ingredients.

Honey: Honey is a natural prebiotic that promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut, aiding in digestion and maintaining a healthy gut flora. Its soothing properties can help alleviate gastrointestinal discomfort and irritation, making it a gentle remedy for digestive issues such as acid reflux and indigestion.

Turmeric (Curcuma longa): Turmeric, rich in curcumin, offers significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits that can improve digestive health. It helps in reducing symptoms of bloating, gas, and indigestion by promoting the production of bile, which aids in the digestion of fats, and by soothing inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale): Ginger is well known for its ability to alleviate nausea, reduce bloating, and enhance gastric motility. Its digestive benefits stem from its capacity to stimulate saliva, bile, and gastric enzymes, which help in breaking down food more efficiently, thus promoting smoother digestion and reducing discomfort.

Marshmallow (Althaea officinalis): Marshmallow root powder is valued for its mucilaginous properties, which form a protective layer on the lining of the digestive tract. This soothing action helps to reduce irritation, inflammation, and discomfort in the stomach and intestines, making it beneficial for conditions like gastritis, ulcers, and colitis.

Grab your ingredients, and then follow these steps:

  1. Add the powdered herbs to the honey.TurmericBites - Step 1
  2. Mix until combined.

  3. Add a small amount of marshmallow powder to your hands to prevent the dough from sticking.
  4. Create small dough balls, roughly about the size of a quarter, and place them on a plate. TurmericBites - Step 3
  5. Let them sit until the honey dries out. TurmericBites - 4
  6. Once they dry, store them in a jar with a lid. Take one about two to three times a day.

Just before leaving, I asked my aunt about this recipe. I really wanted to know where I could find more remedies.

“I can’t exactly remember where I learned this one from, but Nicole has an online academy. You can find a lot more remedies for gut issues there. I will send you a link to make things easier.”

Sure enough, a few days later, I got an email from her with a link to this page:

The Lost Remedies Academy

And because it was really affordable, I decided to give it a go. They have a super lax refund policy, so I wasn’t worried at all.

I couldn’t believe how well the course is structured. It contains videos that show step-by-step instructions on making all kinds of different remedies. The best part about this is that I can watch Nicole prepare the remedies.

I’m still finding a lot of interesting things in this academy, but I can already recommend it to anyone interested in natural remedies. If you want to give it a go, click here to get access to The Lost Remedies Academy.

How long we can keep them in jar ?

I didn’t get that Indian download.

Is the powdered marshmellow just for your hands..

I thought you had to add black pepper to turmeric to be able to absorb it.

1:10 ratio black pepper to turmeric. Some fat is also necessary as the benefits of turmeric are not water soluble.

Where can I get powdered marshmallow?

I can’t find powdered marshmallow, but I was able to get it in a tincture. Can I substitute the tincture for the powder, and if so, how much tincture?
Thank you

No information on shelf life?

I ordered the Apothecary book a little over a month ago and still haven’t received it.
