10. Hot Peppers

Helps with: arthritis

Hot peppers contain capsaicin that can stimulate nerve endings and deplete the chemical that is capable of relaying pain signals. It is for this reason why some of the most effective pain-relieving creams have capsaicin in them.

So if you want a natural way of treating arthritis pain, include hot peppers in your diet. You can use it as ingredients to soups and other savory dishes. Remember that the hotter the pepper, the more it contains capsaicin, the compound responsible for the pepper is pain-relieving effects.

Recommended dosage: ½ tsp. powder daily

    I have had fibro for over 50 yrs due to trauma of death of my husband. He had aneurysm in head. He was 23 and I was 21. We had a 17 mo old and a 3 mo old. He lived 7 weeks with it.. the doctors were astounded.
