Folk Remedy – Targeted Supplementation Using Herbs & Spices
This is for informational purposes only. This information is not intended as medical advice.
Always consult your doctor before trying any new fitness or nutrition program.
Here is a list of just a few herbs and/or spices that can add to the reduction of arthritis and its complications. Be sure to do additional research on what we mentioned here but introducing any and all of these spices and herbs into your diet is a positively great idea if you do not have any allergies or sensitivities to them. We highlighted the two best but each should have a place in your spice cabinet (see below):
· Licorice
· Red pepper
· Wild cucumber bark
· Rosemary tea
· Stinging nettle (juice /tea)
· Ginger tea
· Feaverfew
· Black Cohosh
All of these herbs and spices can be found in almost any health food store and all have benefits to easing arthritic flare-ups. Make sure you get the original unprocessed herb (original form).
Stinging nettle is actually the official cure in Germany for rheumatoid arthritis. One tablespoon of the condensed juice three times a day is considered to be a good dosage level or 3-5 cups of tea made with a generous amount of the herb brewed with hot water; but consult your naturopath, doctor and / or licensed herbalist.
Note: Several important arthritis foundations suggest adding daily doses boron as a form of treatment for arthritis. The mineral boron is found occurring in stinging nettle along with a powerful anti inflammatory. Typically people make tea and / or juice extract from the product.
Wild Cucumber Bark – is one of the best treatments for rheumatoid arthritis and other related inflammatory issues. Wild cucumber bark is also a laxative so experiment with dosages (about a ground teaspoon three times a day) in a strong tea.
Note: The herb is particularly effective at elimination of hip pain relief
