If you’re seeking relief from joint pain, arthritis, or rheumatism, returning to nature and some of grandma’s old remedies can often provide unexpected relief. Among these, a potent combination of cloves and garlic stands out for its effectiveness. Renowned for their anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties, these two kitchen staples can work together to create a powerful remedy to ease discomfort and enhance mobility in just a few days.
Why Cloves and Garlic? Cloves contain eugenol, a natural pain reliever that also reduces inflammation, making them perfect for treating joint issues. Garlic, meanwhile, has been used for centuries for its immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory effects, thanks to its high allicin content. When combined, these ingredients can help fight inflammation and reduce pain.

10 cloves of fresh garlic
2 tablespoons of ground cloves
1/2 cup of olive oil or coconut oil (as a base)
