Too many of us are plagued with back pain. In fact, back pain is the #1 disability worldwide. 1 in 10 Americans will suffer from some form of back pain. As a country, we spend billions of dollars investing in painful surgeries with the hope of getting some relief from our pain.
Chiropractors and medications are only a temporary solution to your problem. Surgeries are complicated, too, because there is no one-size-fits-all for back pain.
Those suffering from sciatica are especially neglected. Sciatica occurs when a herniated disc or bone spur on the spine presses against the nerves, which causes harsh pain, numbness, and inflammation.
Sciatica can eventually go away if its mild enough, but others need a lot of pain management tools. This is where garlic milk can come in as a natural pain reliever for your back pain. It sounds disgusting, but before you dismiss it, learn about the benefits.
Garlic is basically magic for your body. It has numerous proven health benefits, such as improving your heart health, boosting your immune system, preventing cancer, alleviating inflammation, and fighting diseases and infections.
Milk is also a nutritious source of calcium, vitamin B12, and protein. When you combine the two ingredients, your body will feel its effects almost immediately.
Garlic milk is derived from Ayurveda practices and its popularity is exploding in the sciatica community. Due to its anti-inflammatory agents, garlic milk is a perfect solution for anyone suffering from back pain.
The best part is this drink is super easy and quick to make! Since the ingredients are natural, there are no side effects of drinking this remedy.
