Arthritis Rub
A cayenne-infused oil rub, applied topically to stiff joints — capsaicin's warming action distracts from deeper joint discomfort.
What you'll need
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
Steps
- Melt coconut oil gently and stir in cayenne.
- Let cool slightly, then pour into a jar.
- Massage a small amount into stiff joints.
Tip: Wash hands thoroughly after applying — cayenne oil causes intense stinging if it touches eyes or mucous membranes.
