Naturopathy has rediscovered medicinal plants as a valuable source of well-being, particularly in the treatment of joint pain. One of the most commonly recommended combinations is an infusion of peppermint and rosemary, two plants whose combination enhances their anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and regenerative properties. This blend is particularly beneficial for people with cartilage wear in the knee and hip, a common condition among the elderly, or for those suffering from arthritis, osteoarthritis, or joint injuries.
Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is known for its circulation-promoting, anti-inflammatory, and pain-relieving properties. It contains antioxidants such as rosmarinic acid and carnosol, which contribute to the protection and repair of joint tissue. Peppermint (Mentha spicata) has muscle-relaxing, mild analgesic, and digestive properties. It also contains anti-inflammatory compounds that reduce inflammation in damaged tissue.
This combination promotes cartilage regeneration by stimulating blood flow to the affected areas and providing nutrients that promote natural repair of connective tissue, relieve pain, and improve hip and knee mobility.
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon dried rosemary leaves (or a fresh sprig)
- 1 tablespoon mint leaves (or a fresh handful)
