Instructions:
Garlic: Garlic is a tasty addition to many meals. And a potential source of relief for rheumatoid arthritis as an anti-inflammatory agent. What’s thought to aid relief when bringing garlic into the picture? Garlic helps to suppress the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines – and if inflammation is prevented, the occurrence of arthritic joints will be reduced.
The Verdict? Once cooked, garlic loses most of its punch. And, let’s face it, how many people do you know that go around eating a bunch of raw garlic?
Ginger: Ginger has been known to be helpful for a lot of things. Especially nausea. What’s the one thing your mom whipped out when you were feeling sick to your stomach when you were little? Ginger ale. Go figure. It’s also been shown to help alleviate morning sickness in pregnant women and it’s noted to have anti-inflammatory qualities to alleviate arthritis symptoms.
The Verdict? As with most of these home remedies – the quantity is what’s going to be holding you back from true relief.
