DESCRIPTION: For accessible cancers such as skin, mouth, and vulva, the spice turmeric can be applied in an ointment. Note: there’s an image of ulcerating breast cancer from 3:03 to 3:09 that viewers may find disturbing.

The colon cancer video I refer to is my last video, Turmeric Curcumin and Colon Cancer (https://www.nutritionfacts.org/turmeric-curcumin-and-colon-cancer).

There are ways of Boosting the Bioavailability of Curcumin (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/boosting-the-bioavailability-of-curcumin/) to get it into our blood stream.

Some should be cautious about turmeric use, though. See Who Shouldn’t Consume Curcumin or Turmeric? (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/who-shouldnt-consume-curcumin-or-turmeric/)
