Finally, we’ll add a splash of olive oil, not just for its rich flavor, but also for its health benefits. Olive oil is touted for its anti-inflammatory properties, which are due to the antioxidants it contains, called polyphenols. These help relieve the common pain of joint problems and muscle pain.
Here’s how to make this natural pain reliever at home:
Grate a raw potato: Take a fresh, clean potato and grate it. You want to use the raw potato to retain all of its fresh enzymes and anti-inflammatory properties.
Mix in black pepper: Add about a teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper to the grated potatoes. This doesn’t just provide a kick of flavor—it’s the key ingredient that speeds up the pain relief process.
Mix in olive oil: To bind and smooth the mixture, mix in enough olive oil to form a paste. Olive oil makes it easier to apply and adds an additional soothing effect.
To use, apply the paste directly to the painful area, gently wrap it in a bandage or soft cloth, and leave it on for about 20-30 minutes before washing it off. You may feel a slight warming sensation, a sign that the ingredients are working together to relieve the pain.
Keep in mind that while this natural remedy can provide temporary relief, if pain persists, it’s always good to seek medical attention. Natural doesn’t just mean gentle; it can also be powerful. So next time you feel that familiar sting, reach for these three kitchen staples and give yourself a moment of natural relief!
