Rheumatism treatment The simplest way to deal with rheumatism is to try to live a stress-free life. In the same direction, the practice of yoga and breathing exercises also helps. The swelling of joints can be reduced by relaxing in a tub of warm water with rosemary mixed into it.
Muscle pains can be reduced by applying a mixture of garlic extract and horse radish extract, and then massaging the joint or muscle.
Cod liver oil (2-3 teaspoons) mixed with orange juice helps strengthen the bones and should be consumed at night before sleeping. About 2-3 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar, mixed with honey in a glass of warm water, taken 2-3 times a day over a period of at least a month will also help in greatly improving the patient's health.
Other remedies that are easy to prepare include the extract of raw potato juice, consumed in quantities of 2-3 teaspoons, or a glass of carrot juice mixed with 1-2 spoons of lemon extract. Either one of these mixtures should be taken 2-3 times a day. However, one of the most important aspects of treating rheumatism is a patient's diet. Food consumed by the patient should contain adequate quantities of green leafy vegetables, fresh fruits, whole wheat grains and cereals. Equally important, you should strictly avoid junk foods and oily or spicy foods, as well as red meat.
