How To Make A Pain Relief Tea

Are your joints and bones feeling the effects of this passing winters harsh weather like mine are? If you replied no then that’s excellent! For the rest of us arthritic, injured, or just average old tired people out there who said yes I hold something that may lend a hand.

I make this tea that fights inflammation and particularly when my back is annoying me. Pain-killers are not an option for me, over the counter Tylenol or NSAIDS because of they damage the stomach and liver. In addition to the side-effects, I am allergic to many drugs so I've had to become quite resourceful in how to handle the pain after 3 back surgeries. Now you may tell “oh but I just take Tylenol from time to time and it can’t be that serious”. I believed the same thing and ended up with ulcers, esophageal burns, intestinal and stomach bleeding that I am still struggling with.

OK! so enough of that, let's discuss natural solutions to pain that you can easily make on your own with food straight from your kitchen.



Ingredients

  • 10 turns Freshly Ground Black Pepper 
  • 4 - 1'' coins of ginger (or use 1 Tbs powdered ginger) 
  • 1-2 Tbs Maple Syrup or Raw Honey to taste
  • 1 Tbs + 1 tsp Powdered Turmeric
  • 1 Lemon 
  • 40 oz filtered clean water (about 5 cups)

7 Things Healthy People Do Every Morning

The song "Happy" by Pharrell Williams wakes me up every morning. It’s hard to keep your face tight when this song plays. This, joined with the other habits below, set the tone for a productive, happy and healthy day. 1. A Glass of Water should be taken As Soon As You Wake Up If you take a glass of water as soon as you wake up, it revs up the digestive system, helps to rehydrate the body, and aids free flowing. If the body is constantly hydrated, there will be positive changes such as like smooth skin and quality digestion. It’s better if you add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar. 2. Avoid Your Email or Phone for At Least an Hour Your mind can be focused, clearer and happier if you can stay away from your cell phone for at least an hour.
