Decreasing Muscle And Joint Inflammation

[sweetsailing]

I have had significant issues with muscle and joint pain as symptoms of celiac.  It is definately getting better but not yet where I want to be. 

 

I recently discovered something that is of great benefit for me and thought I would share with others. 

 

I really don't like taking anti-inflammatories such as advil, etc, seems counterintuitive when one also has stomach issues. 

 

I discovered Turmeric Ginger Green Tea.  Turmeric and Ginger are natural anti-inflammatory agents and to my surprise one cup of tea (with a little honey) was just as good if not better than taking advil!

 

I am really liking this tea and the taste is good too.  Thought I would share in case others are interested.

Even better is making your own ginger tea from scratch. Yum. Sweetened with honey (as long as you aren't also fructose intolerant) should add to the anti-inflammatory benefits as well.

Thanks us much for this tip sweetsailing!

I'm ordering some today. My muscles have been so achy lately, I assume from the high humidity here, so I'm really looking forward to trying this. I don't like to take anti-inflammatory pills either and ginger has always helped calm my sensitive stomach so this will be a great tea for me to try.
