Every answer here is the right one (curative) but I'll give you some examples. Many sick people came to the hotsprings, which were known for their curative powers. People believe that ginseng has very strong curative value for the immune system. Some scientists believe that chocolate has curative properties and it is more than just candy. Hope this makes it easier to understand.

Do you mean curative? It means that it can provide a cure or a remedy to something, like a disease.

It means that something cures something. Antibiotics are curative for pneumonia.
