A Soothing Drink That May Help Support Joint & Muscle Comfort (Backed by Science) (Page 2 ) | August 8, 2025

• Curcumin , the active compound in turmeric, has potent anti-inflammatory effects
• A 2016 study in Journal of Medicinal Food found curcumin was as effective as ibuprofen for knee osteoarthritis (with fewer side effects)
• Black pepper (piperine) boosts curcumin absorption by 2,000%

2. Ginger

• Shown to reduce muscle pain and soreness
• A study in The Journal of Pain found daily ginger consumption reduced exercise-induced muscle pain by 25%

3. Tart Cherry Juice

• Rich in anthocyanins , which reduce inflammation
• Studies show it may reduce joint pain and stiffness in people with osteoarthritis

4. Lemon & Honey

• Lemon: High in vitamin C , supports collagen and tissue repair
• Raw honey: Contains antioxidants and soothes irritation

🍵 Instructions
