Need a painkiller? Try some olive oil

[Miss-Bliss]

High quality olive oil contains oleocanthal - a natural chemical which blocks the same pain pathway as the anti-inflamatory drug Ibuprofen. A 50g helping provides 10% of the Ibuprofen needed to relieve pain. Eating olive oil may not cure a headache but may help lower inflamation which is linked to heart disease and cancer.

Yeah I read about this yesterday.

Have you also heard that garlic is good for toothach- it numbs the gums, you cut a clove in half and keep it on the area.

tooth pain doesnt phase me. i tried pulling out my own molar once and ended up snapping it vertically in half.
took the matter to a dentist who said i was nuts and proceeded to take out his hammer and chisel and finish the job.

One table spoon olive oil in the morning before you start to eat or to drink will keep you healty and kills all the bad bacteries in your intestine caused by rotten food leftovers and insufficient intestine mobility, what is one of the most frequent reasons for intestine cancer.

Do you take a spoon of olive oil every morning?
