SUMMARY:
- Cabbage contains apigenin, a flavonoid compound with anti-inflammatory properties. The effectiveness of this centuries-old remedy was tested in a 2016 study involving 81 patients with osteoarthritis.
- Guggul is a sticky gum-like resin from the Mukul tree. It’s good for joint pain because it naturally neutralizes the primary gene responsible for determining inflammatory reactions in the body.
- Eucalyptus oil has both anti-inflammatory and analgesic (or pain-killing) properties. It also relieves pain associated with conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and even muscle injuries.
- Black cohosh acts as an anti-spasmodic for nerves and muscles. It contains salicylic acid, which has anti-inflammatory properties and is a major ingredient in aspirin.
- Cinnamon contains a compound called cinnamaldehyde, which stops the release of arachidonic acid, an inflammatory fatty acid. This makes cinnamon effective at reducing inflammation caused by joint diseases like arthritis.
- The alfalfa plant is one of the best herbal remedies on the market for both back and joint pain resulting from inflammatory arthritis.
- In Chinese and Indian Ayurvedic medicine, turmeric powder has traditionally been used to treat arthritis and joint pain. And that’s because turmeric blocks inflammatory cytokines and enzymes.
- Research has shown that adding cloves to your diet can reduce inflammation caused by arthritis by about 44%. It also keeps new inflammatory cytokines from popping up in your joints.
- Devil’s Claw is a plant that grows in the deserts of southern Africa. For centuries, natives of the Kalahari Desert have used the dried roots of this plant to treat joint pain.
- Willow bark is one of the oldest traditional medicines used to treat inflammation.
- The traditional Chinese practice of acupressure has been around since 600 B.C.E. and is known to do wonders for your overall health and wellness.
- Moxibustion is a form of heat therapy in which dried mugwort is burnt on particular points of the body. It’s widely used in other East-Asian countries to manage the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, and practitioners swear by it.
