Back pain is among the leading causes of disability around the world, and statistically, 1 out of 10 people is suffering from a certain type of back pain.
Sciatica pain is the pain felt all along the sciatic nerve, the longest nerve in the body. It is accompanied by numbness, and tingling, and is often a result of a bone spur on the spinal stenosis or the spine, or herniated disk. The pain and discomfort are usually treated with painkillers, which are often ineffective and harmful.
According to a professor of biomechanics at the University of Waterloo, Dr. Stuart McGill:
“Very few of the available treatments will actually help a patient and relieve from his pain because only a few of these treatments can actually target the problem to its roots.”
Fortunately, there are highly effective natural ways to soothe the pain and symptoms of these health issues, and garlic milk is one of the best ones! Garlic is a powerful natural antibiotic, which strengthens the immune system, fights inflammation, lowers the cancer risk, and improves heart health.
According to Dr. Joseph Mercola:
“Revered in Egypt for its medicinal qualities, and prized in Italian, Asian, and Indian cooking, garlic has been called “the stinking rose” for good reason. Closely related to the onion, it’s a bulbous root with an undeniably fragrant pungency. It was mentioned in historical documents that date back 5,000 years ago before its fame permeated the rest of the known world.”
Its combination with milk is high in protein, calcium, and vitamin B12, and is able to relieve the pain in the back.
According to So Yummy:
“Garlic milk is an ancient natural remedy that is making a comeback in the modern era. Used to treat those diagnosed with sciatica and other back-related maladies, garlic milk is proving to be a less invasive alternative to surgery and prescription painkillers.
Garlic itself was used by our ancient ancestors to treat digestive ailments and infections and was even prescribed to those with heart problems and tumors. Its healing properties are still hailed by medical professionals today, and according to Consumer Reports, garlic can help reduce blood pressure and cholesterol while also building up one’s immune system and reducing the risk for cancer.”
