could you please tell me what you did for hirutism you mentioned doing ayurvedic treatment in bay area i am desperate to get rid of this problem please please help me

SWEET!

it also depends on what type of turmeric you use – i use kasturi manjal (i don’t know where they sell it in the states, but i buy it at a stall in madrass that sells pooja saman, so thoe types of places would have it), and i mix it with yogurt, besan, and sandalwood powder, and honey – the staining is very minimal, if any at all. turmeric also stunts facial hair growth…

The trick is to use a little turmeric only – and its really trial and error to figure it out. Once, long years ago, I overdid the turmeric – and I was getting ready for a party and remember that I had to lurk in the shadows and pray that no one asked me to dance

I think turmeric is a natural bleaching agent – removes impurities etc ,the besan ( chick pea flour) exfoliates and tightens the skin, cream( not yogurt) moisturizes and softens the skin.

How does this work? I’d like to try it for my allergies. Do you put it ON your nose or underneath the nostrils?

This is not always the way to approach a potentially medically-active compound.

I think a more important question is, how does turmeric act in the human body? What are the potentially active compounds in turmeric? What happens to it when prepared? When injested? Why does it have these myriad properties? Does one particular drug-like property stand out? Are there more than one “primary” properties?

You answer some of these questions, you move a little further down the road to figuring out what your double-blind experiment will look like. And it won’t cost a billion dollars, either.

I am totally with you on jala-neti. I have horrific year round allergies and I am amazed at the difference it has made. I reccommend it to anyone who has any sinus/allergies issue.
