A list of 11 natural foods with science-supported pain reduction effects:
1. Horseradish for Sinuses: Its high levels of sulfur create an antibiotic effect, and this helps in fighting sinus infections. It helps increase facial circulation, clearing the sinus passages, and easing mucus out of respiratory passages.
2. Garlic for Earache: Garlic is a superfood in its own right, helping boost almost all aspects of the immune system. It is also a remedy for many ear-related issues like ear infections, tinnitus, and earache. The use of garlic for earache can either by via garlic oil or cloves of garlic.
3. Cloves for Gum Inflammation: Cloves contain eugenol, which has been a staple ingredient in 19th-century dentistry. Cloves and clove oil are a remedy for toothaches and gum inflammation.
4. Ginger for Muscle Pain: Gym-goers may have self-inflicted muscle injuries. While ginger settles stomach issues, raw or heat-treated oil causes reductions in muscle pain felt following those muscle injuries.
5. Apple Cider Vinegar for Heartburn: ACV is a popular natural remedy for heartburn and acid reflux. It is basically fermented vinegar made from crushed apples.
6. Pineapple for Stomach Bloating: A fresh slice of pineapple is good if you’re bloating. An enzyme found in the fruit breaks down proteins and reduces swelling.
7. Blueberries for Urinary Tract Infections: Polyphenols, antioxidants found in blueberries are good for treating UTIs. They do not absorb into the tract; rather, they convert into compounds that bind in urine, keeping bacteria from causing issues.
8. Cherries for Joint Pains and Headaches: Studies have shown a correlation between the consumption of cherries to reduced joint inflammation and related conditions like arthritis. [1]
9. Peppermint for Sore Muscles: Peppermint has anti-inflammatory properties, meaning that in addition to relieving pain and inflammation, it also calms spasms that may lead to muscle cramps.
10. Water for General Injury Pain: Water works great for all types of pain, specifically warm water. A warm bath can relieve aches, stiffness, and body fatigue.
11. Turmeric for Chronic Pain: Turmeric, combined with ginger to treat an impressive number of body pains, including chronic pain.
