Ginger Isn't Just For Cookies Anymore: Pain Relief Better Than NSAID Drugs

Curcumin, Turmeric, Ginger, Cayenne and Lemon naturally treat pain and reduce inflammation. But who wants to take 10 different things to reduce arthritic pain, or weekend warrior recovery? Making a tea is great in theory, but palatability is a concern and the concentrated amount is tough to get in one cup. Many patients find cayenne added to a drink is far too spicy. Whereas, when compounded into pill form, is easily taken with food. Thankfully,   in one easy pill you can have it all. 
 
Curcumin, found in turmeric,  lowers enzymes in the body that cause inflammation.  Inflammation, as we all too well know, causes pain. If you take blood thinners, these natural ingredients should be used with caution. 
Ginger is not just for cookies anymore. In fact, a University of Miami study found that ginger could potentially  be a substitute to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The study compared the effects of a highly concentrated ginger extract to placebo in 247 patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. The ginger reduced pain and stiffness in knee joints by 40% compared to placebo.
