Small but MIGHTY Superfood SLASHES Joint Pain!
Dear Reader,
Nothing is more debilitating than joint pain.
If you suffer with joint pain, then you know all too well that it’s a HORRIBLE downward health spiral.
And probably the worst effect is — the more pain you feel in your joints, the less you’re going to move. And the less you move, the MORE pain you’re going to have whenever you do move.
…not to mention the loss of muscle mass (because not moving leads to muscle wasting) – which is a big predictor of long-term health.
Let’s face it, joint pain is not something you ever want to live with, for many reasons.
The good news is you don’t have to. Researchers have discovered a common food can SLASH your pain.
So, how great would it be if you could reduce pain AND lower inflammation?
That’s exactly what happened to arthritis patients who received garlic supplements compared to those who received placebo.
The new study, published in the journal Phytotherapy Research, found how powerful garlic can be when you take enough (or concentrate it in a pill).
Garlic is nothing new – we’ve been eating garlic as food for at least seven thousand years! But now we know the extent of its superpowers when it comes to joint pain.
See, the ugly truth is that arthritis can be more impactful on your life than you might realize… Your ability to move around is closely associated with how long you’re going to live.
Which is why, anything you can do to keep your joints healthy and supple throughout your life is a HUGE step towards longevity and a happier life.
In this new study, 70 women with active rheumatoid arthritis the received 500 milligrams of a garlic powder twice daily or placebo.
Not only did the women receiving garlic show improvement in their symptoms, but the researchers also found a reduction in blood inflammatory markers: including erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) levels, serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a).
In plain English? Garlic lowered their levels of inflammation. And we already know just how dangerous inflammation is for your health.
What makes garlic such a joint hero? It’s a great source of a sulfur-containing compound known as allicin. Allicin is formed in garlic when it is crushed, chopped, or chewed and has powerful anti-inflammatory properties.
(Other garlic compounds — ajoene, allicin, allyl methyl thiosulfinate and methyl allyl thiosulfinate — have also shown to help reduce viruses – another reason to add garlic to your daily regimen.)
