Somebody should tell Mr. Bordner. This goes hand-in-hand with that nail polish remover he reviewed for us!

Turmeric powder should get top priority in a firstaid box for its multiple medicinal properties. Dabbing the powder on the bleeding wound immediately stops bleeding and saves loss of blood. Its antibacterial properties protects the injured person from infection. I have personal experience of this medical use of turmeric and I highly recommend this to all the LJs. Needless to say that the powder should be kept hygienically safe.

I recommend the “thin” for taking care of bleeders; I cut them into whatever size I need and wrap with duct tape.
