“Drug-free pain relief”? Sounds too good to be true, but scientists at the University of Georgia have just released a study claiming just that! And even better is the fact that a natural pain killer is right in your kitchen. Ginger can help soothe the pain of inflamed muscles. Volunteers in the study did bicep curls for eleven days. After the gruelling workout, they were given 2 grams of ginger. The lead researcher said that they found the ginger to be at least as effective as over-the-counter pain relievers. The researchers acknowledged that ginger root has been used for centuries for colds and upset stomachs. Now they believe they have found a new use for it! Finding pain-relief for aching muscles right in your kitchen . . . it’s a good thing!
