Arthritis Relief - How An Everyday Kitchen Spice Can Reduce Your Arthritis Pain
Ginger has been used since ancient times to cure a variety of problems such as arthritis, diarrhoea and heart conditions. Along with its great medicinal properties ginger is also a great kitchen spice and could easily enhance any dish!
But how could ginger help you in the fight against arthritis?
A study by Doctor Ray Altman shows that highly concentrated ginger supplements can help reduce osteoarthritis. He tested it on 250 people over a six week period. Two-thirds of the people taking the supplement reported relief from pain.
Ginger has milder effects than most drugs but because it is a safer and cheaper alternative to drugs many people prefer it.
Tests on ginger are inconclusive at the moment and more detailed tests still need to be made over longer periods to establish the benefits of ginger. Some people report relief from pain when taking ginger supplements but in other people the results are less pronounced.
However, because ginger is safe to take (in small quantities - everything in large quantities is bad for you), cheap and readily available isn't ginger worth a try?
Ginger can be bought as concentrated supplements but you can also add fresh ginger to your everyday meals. Ginger can also be taken as a tea. Just add one teaspoon freshly grated ginger to hot water. It's easy as that!
Note: Care need to be taken when taking ginger because some people are allergic to it. Please make sure you are not allergic to ginger before taking it.
