Ingredients:
- 1 cup organic olive oil
- 2 tablespoons cayenne pepper powder
- 10 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 tablespoon turmeric powder
- 1-inch ginger root, grated
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon black pepper powder
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- 5 drops eucalyptus essential oil
- 5 drops peppermint essential oil
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Base: In a small saucepan, warm the olive oil on low heat. Be careful not to overheat to preserve its healing properties.
- Infuse with Herbs: Add cayenne pepper powder, turmeric powder, grated ginger, mustard seeds, and black pepper powder to the warm oil. Stir well and let it simmer on low heat for 5-7 minutes, allowing the herbs to release their medicinal compounds.
- Enhance with Garlic: Add crushed garlic cloves and stir continuously for another 2-3 minutes. Garlic is a natural anti-inflammatory agent that helps reduce swelling and pain.
- Strain and Cool: Remove from heat and strain the mixture using a fine mesh or cheesecloth to remove solid particles, leaving only the infused oil. Let it cool to room temperature.
- Add Apple Cider Vinegar: Once cooled, mix in apple cider vinegar, which enhances blood circulation and reduces inflammation.
- Incorporate Essential Oils: Add eucalyptus and peppermint essential oils to the mixture. These oils provide a cooling effect, soothe muscles, and relieve tension headaches.
- Optional Honey Addition: If desired, add honey to improve consistency and enhance the remedy’s soothing properties.
- Store Properly: Transfer the mixture into a glass jar with an airtight lid. Store it in a cool, dark place for at least 24 hours before first use to allow the ingredients to blend effectively.
