What Is an Herbal First Aid Kit:

Instead of using man-made chemicals to address acute injuries or conditions, an herbal first aid kit utilizes herbs and spices i.e., God’s medicine.

What to Look for In an Herbal First Aid Kit:

While there are numerous herbs to choose from, an herbal first aid kit should contain remedies with the following qualities:

• 100 percent natural
• Effective at addressing most acute conditions, such as cuts, scrapes, bruises, burns, splinters, bee stings, fever, and pain
• Easy to transport and administer
• Long shelf-life
• Negligible risk of overdose or negative side effects

In this series, I share the contents of my herbal first aid kit along with how to easily make and use these natural remedies.

Herbal First Aid Kit Remedy No. 1:

Turmeric

The number one remedy in my first aid kit is turmeric. I do not leave home without it.

Turmeric is a spice that comes from the rhizome of the Curcuma longa plant, which is a perennial in the ginger family. The most well-known active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin, which gives turmeric a yellowish color. Curcumin is a powerful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal.
