Symptoms: joints pain, arthritis, osteoarthritis
Treatment: Garlic-infused oil is widely regarded in traditional medicine as one of the most effective natural remedies for joint discomfort.
Ingredients
- 14 oz (400 g) crushed garlic cloves
- 25 fl oz (750 ml) vegetable oil (olive oil is recommended)
- One glass jar with a capacity of at least 34 fl oz (1 liter)
Preparation
Gently heat the oil to approximately 110°F (45°C), making sure it does not boil. Place the crushed garlic into the glass jar and pour the warm oil over it, ensuring the garlic is well covered. Seal the jar with a lid and store it in a dark place for two weeks. Shake the jar gently once a day during this period.
After 14 days, the garlic oil is ready for use.
How to Use
Compress
Fold a piece of gauze 5–7 layers thick and soak it in the garlic oil. Apply the gauze to the affected area and secure it with plastic wrap. Leave the compress on overnight.
Rubbing
Warm a small amount of the oil slightly. Apply it to the painful joint and massage gently but firmly along natural massage lines for about 10 minutes. Afterward, wrap the joint with a shawl or warm cloth and keep it insulated for 2 hours.
For best results, apply daily for two months.
