Joint stiffness, discomfort, or simply wanting to keep your bones strong as time goes by? Nature offers powerful support — and you might already have the ingredients in your kitchen: olive oil and garlic.
Together, these two natural staples can do more than add flavor to your meals. When combined, they may help support joint flexibility, reduce inflammation, and protect bone health.
Why This Mixture Works
- Olive Oil is rich in healthy fats and antioxidants like oleocanthal, which may naturally help reduce inflammation in the joints. It also supports calcium absorption, which is essential for strong bones.
- Garlic is known for its anti-inflammatory and immune-supporting properties. It contains sulfur compounds that can benefit joint tissue and bone density over time.
Used together, they form a simple and powerful blend that can be added to your daily routine.
How to Prepare It
Ingredients:
- 3–4 fresh garlic cloves
- ½ cup (about 100 ml) of extra virgin olive oil
Instructions:
- Peel and crush the garlic cloves. Crushing activates the healthy compounds in garlic.
- Let the crushed garlic sit for about 10 minutes.
- Add the garlic to a small glass jar and pour in the olive oil.
- Cover and let it infuse overnight (or for at least 8–12 hours).
- Store it in a cool, dark place. Use within one week.
How to Use It
- Take 1 teaspoon each morning on an empty stomach.
- You can also drizzle it over toast, salad, or steamed vegetables. Avoid frying or overheating it to keep the nutrients intact.
A Simple Step for Daily Comfort
This natural blend isn’t a cure, but it can be a gentle daily support for your joints and bones. Consistency is key — and with such easy ingredients, it’s a small step toward better mobility and stronger bones, day by day.
