Cassis tea
Wait what? Cassis tea? You must wonder what this has to do with joint pain. We’re going to have to disappoint you if you think you can drink Cassis for your joints. Cassis is made from the berries of the Ribes Nigrum plant (a.k.a. the Cassis plant). Other than making Cassis, the plant is good for rheumatism, flu, and yes: joint pain. For this, you have to use the leaf of the plant to make herbal tea. Do you have a Cassis plant in your garden? Then you can easily make this yourself with the recipe below. Don’t panic if this is not the case, you can also get this at plenty of stores.
Ingredients:
About 4 young leaves of the Cassis plant
A cup of water
Possibly a sprig of mint, half a teaspoon of turmeric, or rosemary leaves
Empty tea bags (available at supermarkets or drugstores)
This is how you make it:
It is very important that you first wash the leaves thoroughly with water. Then you need to cut the leaves so that the aroma is released and put them in the tea bag. Then add it to a glass of hot water and let it soak. Add some mint, turmeric, or rosemary leaves if desired. That’s it!
