Suffering from joint pain? Here are 5 tips to alleviate your pain:

Drink turmeric and ginger tea: Both ingredients are anti-inflammatory agents, and will help reduce inflammation associated with osteo and rheumatoid arthritis.

Epsom salt soak: A naturally occurring mineral, magnesium sulfate has been used to relief pain for years.

Take more magnesium: It relaxes our muscles and nerve endings, relieving stiffness and pain.

Supplement diet with glucosamine: Helps keep up the health of your cartilage, the rubbery tissue that cushions bones in your joints.

Exercise: When it’s painful and difficult just to move, the last thing you feel like doing is getting up and exercising. As unpleasant as it may sound, exercise is vital for those who suffer from any form of stiffness, joint pain, or arthritis. Exercise will help control weight, (an excess of which puts more strain on your joints) strengthens the muscles that support the joint, even when the cartilage is thinning, and lubricates the joints, allowing them to move more freely.
