The DUMBEST Pain Move Yet?!

By Jack Taylor Posted July 2, 2020

Dear Turapür Today Reader,

It’s like they JUST. DON’T. LEARN.

No matter how much evidence piles up, mainstream medicine and Big Pharma keep making DUMB decisions that put YOUR life and safety at risk.

And guess what? They’re doing it again.

Let me explain…

First of all, if you’re living with chronic pain, you’re not alone.

Did you know that nearly 1 out of every 4 American adults has been diagnosed with arthritis or some other painful muscle or bone  condition?

But by now you’d think we’d be moving away from prescription opioids, such as OxyContin and Vicodin. Or fentanyl, a synthetic opioid 50–100 times more potent than morphine (that’s the drug that killed the musician Prince).

Opioids are addictive and are killing thousands of Americans every year. And even when they don’t, lots of times they just don’t work.

But there’s a disturbing new trend surfacing in the treatment of arthritis and other pain conditions… and the consequences could be DEADLY!

Yep, I’m talking about opioids!

That’s right, folks… according to a new study, MORE people are now taking opioids for pain connected with these diseases.

How much more? Well, according to researchers in Europe the consumption of opioids to treat these pain conditions increased from 15 to a whopping 25 percent!

Unfortunately, the “gold standard” for treating chronic pain conditions in conventional medicine is STILL an opioid painkiller…Their use nearly DOUBLED, even as more and more bad news comes out about these drugs.

That’s CRAZY and irresponsible.

Fortunately, SAFE, non-opioid alternatives for alleviating pain do exist… and many are abundant in nature!

Here are a couple of my favorites.

Turmeric

Many people turn to turmeric as a natural pain reliever because it helps relieve inflammation. Turmeric is the spice that gives curry its yellow color and unique flavor. It contains the compound curcumin, an antioxidant that helps protect the body from free radical molecules that can damage cells and tissue.

It’s a delicious spice that can be added to many foods, but it can also be found as a supplement.

Willow Bark

People have been using willow bark to ease inflammation, the cause of most aches and pains, for centuries. The bark of the white willow contains the chemical salicin, which is similar to the main ingredient in aspirin (Bayer).

Originally, people chewed the bark itself to relieve pain and fevers. Now willow bark is sold as a dried herb that you can brew like tea. It also comes as a liquid supplement or in capsule form, both of which can be found at many health food stores or online retailers.

And if you’re looking for a topical for fast relief, both capsaicin and arnica can work wonders.
