Wrap your leg with cabbage and wait for one hour - the results will astonish you!

Cabbage is known for its healthy features and nutrients.

The vegetable is low in calories, rich in vitamin C, potassium and vitamin K.

For centuries, cabbage has been used, not only as a food, but also to treat swellings and injuries. Studies conducted at the University of North Carolina also found that cabbage has the ability to fight cancer.

Cabbage contains essential antioxidants and amino acids. All of these have anti-inflammatory properties, which are very helpful in treating pain and swelling in the joints. It is also claimed that cabbage provides relief from the pain of osteoarthritis.

As it turns out, these amazing nutrients can treat arthritis painfully.

You need:

• Green cabbage (purple cabbage can also work, but it burns)
• Aluminium foil
• Rolling pin
• Bandage / gauze
• Oven

What to do:

1. Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage and rinse thoroughly. Dry it, and remove the hard part of the trunk.

2. Use a rolling pin on the cabbage until it its juices start to flow.

3. Wrap the leaves with aluminum foil and heat for a few minutes in the oven until the cabbage is warm. Place on the painful areas of the body and tighten with a bandage or gauze.

Leave the cabbage for 1 hour and repeat 3 times a day. It is very important to wash the area after each time.

If you prefer cold treatment, you can do the same process, but instead of placing the leaves in the oven, put them in the refrigerator until they are cold. You will feel the effect of the treatment the next day.

Although there are rare cases where people are sensitive to cabbage - if you feel discomfort or itching, remove the cabbage immediately.

This treatment can help, but it is important to remember that you should always consult a doctor if you have serious problems.

I always liked to try natural treatments before I turn to drugs.
