4. Turmeric
Turmeric is a wonderful spice. It is most well known for being the spice that provides curry with a lovely gold color. In addition, turmeric has several antibacterial properties and is often used in Eastern medicine. Many Asian communities have used this spice for hundreds of years as a way to treat many types of ailments, including minor infections.
Some lab studies have found that curcumin, which is one of the compounds found in turmeric, can be quite effective against different types of staphylococcus bacteria. In order to use turmeric as a way to treat a staph infection, you will first want to grind up the turmeric until it is a very fine powder. Add a little bit of water at a time and mix until a fine paste is created. You can then apply this paste to any wounds or boils that you may have. It will help to heal the infection more quickly.
