I've found arnica gel to work really well on my arthritis not a big flare up but when its aching the arnica really seems to ease it.

i've heard Arnica is really good for aches pains arthritic stuff i haven't tried it myself i've got rheumatoid arthritis not sure it would be much help
glucosamine supplements are supposed to be good to take for osteo arthritis

it really depends on your condition. The nearest I can describe it is the ache that you get in the damp weather or the beginning of a cold before the major flare up begins. Thats when I find it useful.

Hi Hun, if you drop me an e-mail I can send you some info. I don't want to post all the various things you can take here as some remedies can have interactions with medications etc. :) xx

Emu oil balm is ACES!!!! I buy mine from Loren Care and a little goes a long way. Both OH and I use it on our knees and back and I have been using it on my whiplash injury. It's amazing stuff and smells amazing.

Ginger has Anti inflamirory quailites, eapecially when it comes to joint pain. I have a bad knee but when i asd ginger to things daily the pain goes away within a matter of days.

Also sea kelp tablets for hair growth! i had dreadlocks for 7 years and finally decided to unpick them (it took me two months lol) . But the weight of my dreads and the trauma to my scalp from un picking left me with a couple of bald patches about the size of 50p coins. Tried black castor oil but although it made my hair feel lovely it didnt regrow the baldy bits. Since taking sea kelp it is finally growing back in, and the reat of my hair feels amazing too :)

I have been taking herbal sleeping tablets with valerian, hops and passion flower. They work for me pretty well, because I have a lot of problems with insomnia. I seem to sleep deeper and don't wake up during the night as much.

But if you take valerian by itself, be warned that it smells like sweaty corpse feet.

if i get a sore throat or bad cold, I tend to drink black tea with honey and lemon. It'a the only thing that actually works with getting me back to normal

Tea tree oil works wonders against thrush. Just dilute 20 drops in 100ml water, soak a tampon in it and wear overnight for 2 or 3 nights. Job done!
