The terrible pain you feel in your back, neck, legs, and joints usually appears as a result of an unhealthy lifestyle full of stress, and of course bad posture.
The majority try to ignore the pain and just move on with their busy day. But we offer you a recipe that could change all that.
Required Ingredients
- Cold water;
- 150 grams of edible gelatin (for one-month treatment).
Add 5 grams of gelatin in a ¼ cup of cold water, stir it, and let it stay overnight, but don’t keep it in the refrigerator, since it will turn into jelly. You can add juice, yogurt, or honey to taste.
Drink this mixture on an empty stomach for 30 consecutive days. You will be able to see results after the first week.
If you like, you can repeat the treatment, but make sure you make a 6 month-pause in between.
If you wonder how this mixture can help ease your pain, the answer is in the acids within the gelatin content.
They help in the recovery of bone, cartilage, collagen, and tendon tissue.
Gelatin improves the immune system and strengthens ligaments. It may also prevent osteoarthritis and osteoporosis, but only if taken properly.
If you wonder why the 6-month pause, learn more about the side effects below.
Side Effects of Gelatin Supplements
- Upset stomach;
- Burping;
- Allergic reactions;
- Bloating.
The safety of gelatin supplements in high doses is not exactly known, although gelatin is considered safe when consumed in foods, as stated by the FDA. Some experts believe there is a potential risk of getting sick from gelatin contaminated with some animal disease, but so far, there has been no such case reported.
It’s unknown if these supplements are safe for breastfeeding mothers, pregnant women, and children. If you are on any medication and plan to take gelatin supplements, inform your doctor so that s/he can check about possible interaction with your regular medication, or for any side effects.
The Food and Drug Administration regulates dietary supplements as foods, not as medications. That’s why supplement manufacturers don’t test the effectiveness or safety of their products, unlike the producers of medications.
