This pain-relieving tea is a delicious and effective way to reduce inflammation and pain. Boswellia and turmeric are both powerful anti-inflammatory herbs, and ginger and black pepper help to increase their absorption. This tea is a great way to relieve pain from arthritis, back pain, and other inflammatory conditions.
I first learned about this tea from my grandmother. She used to make it for me when I was a child, and it always helped to relieve my pain. I've since learned that there is a lot of scientific evidence to support the use of boswellia and turmeric for pain relief. I'm happy to share this recipe with you, and I hope it helps you to find relief from pain.

Why It Works
Boswellia is a powerful anti-inflammatory herb that has been used for centuries to treat pain and inflammation. It contains compounds that have been shown to inhibit the production of inflammatory cytokines.
Turmeric is another powerful anti-inflammatory herb. It contains curcumin, a compound that has been shown to reduce inflammation and pain.
Ginger and black pepper help to increase the absorption of boswellia and turmeric. Ginger contains compounds that help to break down boswellia and turmeric, making them more easily absorbed by the body. Black pepper contains piperine, a compound that has been shown to increase the absorption of curcumin.
