Anti-Bacterial Cut Salve

Turmeric is anti-bacterial and anti-viral. Raw honey is anti-bacterial, anti-viral and keeps cuts clean. Cayenne pepper helps to stop bleeding. Shepherd’s purse helps to stop bleeding too. Olive oil is good for skin, and beeswax helps it all to solidify.

Ingredients

3 Tbs olive oil
2 tsp shepherd’s purse
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1.5 tsp raw honey
1 Tbs beeswax

Steps

Step 1
1. Mix the olive oil and shepherd’s purse together. Let this sit for at least an hour in a warm place. (I often leave it overnight.)
1. Strain the oil through a piece of cloth, into a small, clean saucepan. Discard the herb.
1. Add the beeswax and turn on very low heat until melted.
1. Remove the salve from the heat and stir in the turmeric, cayenne, and raw honey until dissolved.
1. Pour into a 2-oz. tin and let it cool and harden completely before putting the lid on.
