Take 2 tablespoons in the morning and say goodbye to bone pain, nerve pain, cartilage pain,

This claim — “Take 2 tablespoons in the morning and say goodbye to bone pain, nerve pain, and cartilage pain” — is a common style of health-remedy advertisement. It leaves out the most important detail: what are the two tablespoons of?

What you should know

Bone pain: Can result from arthritis, injury, osteoporosis, or other medical conditions.

Nerve pain: May cause burning, tingling, numbness, or shooting pain. Treatment depends on the underlying cause.

Cartilage pain: Cartilage itself has no nerves, but damage to cartilage and nearby joint tissues can cause pain, stiffness, and inflammation.

Could a homemade remedy help?

Some foods, oils, and nutrients may support general health, but there is no reliable evidence that taking two tablespoons of a single household ingredient every morning cures all three types of pain.

Since your grandma has hard bumps on the finger joints near her nails, osteoarthritis is one possible explanation. A remedy might not stop the bumps from developing, even if it temporarily relieves discomfort.

Please tell me one thing: What ingredient does the recipe recommend taking two tablespoons of? For example, olive oil, coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, or something else.
