5 PLANTS WITH ANTI-INFLAMMATORY PROPERTIES

Many of us prefer natural remedies to have to take prescription drugs. And it is a pleasure to know that every year more people prefer this healthier and more natural lifestyle. On one occasion, my Doctor mentioned to me: “I don’t understand why the medicine exists if it comes from a natural origin. Why to synthesize the natural? It only creates more damage ”. And honestly, I agree with him.

Although it is more practical to take a pill than to prepare a natural remedy, it definitely brings fewer side effects. This time, I will talk to you about plants with anti-inflammatory properties that can help us soothe the skin discomfort that most skin conditions cause.

1. Devil’s Claw (Harpagophytum procumbent)
