Sore joints? Olive oil.

[GunsForBucks]

Just heard this and want to try it.
Using extra virgin organic first cold pressed blah blah olive oil

For hand/wrist put olive oil on bandage material and wrap area.
Cover hand with plastic bag to prevent stains
If you wake up in the middle of the night just take it off.

Do that for 12 days and it helps swelling. Also it reportedly dissolves stuff that gets in joints to cause pain.

Some people reporting not needing knee operations and cancelling procedures.

Thinking of trying it on my many areas.. told to use highest quality olive oil I could get.

What do you think?

It sounds like you have Gout. Go see a doctor and get gout meds.

I want to kill swelling, not help it.

But seriously it sounds like some witch doctor rubbish. I see people on the net claiming if you buy their workout plan you can get ripped in a week, it doesn't make it true.

Turmeric, which can be taken as a supplements, are good for supporting your joints.

Much better than olive oil, but fish oils can help too. Green leafy vegetables. Garlic. A bit of dairy foods.

You consume it, not put it on the hand itself. Yet Turmeric and ginger both have anti-inflammatory agents which help from the inside out.

Olive Oil on skin would be more for a rather messy form of skin moisturizer. Perhaps if you had cracked dry skin and wanted to protected while healing that?

-Remove grains from your diet for a while
-Vitamin C
-Vitamin D
-Boron supplementation
For the latter just add 1/8 tsp borax to a liter of water. Make sure it's sodium borate or sodium tetraborate, not whatever they replaced actual borax with in Europe. Done this myself for several weeks, no ill effects.

Doesn't seem as effective compared to something like medicated creams and anti-inflammatory tablets/medications.

This sounds like something that is home brewed with no scientific evidence. If you want to use olive oil for joint pain I would include it in my diet with fish and vegetables as these are anti-inflammatory foods.

AI VOICE: I THINK THAT THERE IS THIS AMAZING DISCOVERY BY DR R. ROBERTSON, AND HE MADE THIS DISCOVERY ABOUT OLIVE OIL IN RELIEF OF CHRONIC PAINS. IF YOU HAVE CHRONIC PAINS YOU SHOULD DO THIS IMMEDIATELY. AFTER HIS AMAZING LIFE JOURNEY IM GOING TO TALK ABOUT FOR 45 SOLID SECONDS HE FINALLY WAS ABLE TO CONVINCE THE EVIL CORPORATION TO ACCEPT THIS MIRACLE CURE, BUY IT TODAY.

.....or....the ai ad-trolls bought stocks in olives citing the poor olive harvest, and are looking to pump up the numbers when they short their stock, or make a small ripple inflation to sell it at a profit.

Olive oil provides a deep hydration to the skin while reducing inflammation. So it could help reducing some puffiness and swelling, but mostly just for dry and irritated skin. It has antioxidants and lipids can that help skin.

It wouldn't be my first go to solution, but there's at least no side effects to it, except for being extremely greasy and a mess.

There was something about crystals that break off? and get in the joints. The olive oil is supposed to dissolve them.

Same person was telling me about <i think> tumeric drops she puts on her eye lids at bedtime.

They live in Cyprus and have a local supply of the best organics blah blah etc.

Not knocking it just a lot to say it all.


She jammed her thumb and it worked. Another of her friends was sailing and messed her hand up in the rigging and did the for the 12 day thing and it worked great. Not a story she read but people she knew.. this woman does homeopathic stuff and looked this up when she messed her own hand up.

But IDK just throwing it out there to see what people think. Couldn't hurt... ha ha

You imagine how many viruses and sh** would enter our bodies if you could just rub stuff on our skin to do so...Skin is a barrier to keep your organs clean, cut yourself and see what happens (infection, swelling etc.) that's when stuff gets past your skin
Bottom line is stuff you rub on your skin stays on your skin or affects only your skin, you can burn it with stuff you can moisturize it with others but nothing goes past
