Consuming rosemary in your diet also helps to reduce systemic inflammation in other areas of the body. If you suffer from arthritis or issues affecting the nervous system, then eating rosemary can help relieve your symptoms of pain and irritation.

Peppermint (health benefits)
Menthol
Menthol is responsible for peppermint’s characteristic cooling sensation. Its natural anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic properties make it highly effective for soothing the digestive tract, which we’ll discuss later.
Flavonoids
Peppermint tea contains flavonoids like eriocitrin, luteolin, and hesperidin, which are potent antioxidants. These compounds help protect cells from oxidative damage caused by free radicals, potentially reducing your risk of chronic diseases.
Rosmarinic acid
Rosmarinic acid is another potent antioxidant found in peppermint. It has anti-inflammatory effects and is known to reduce inflammation, especially in the respiratory tract.
Vitamin A and C
While peppermint tea contains only small amounts of vitamins A and C, they contribute to its immune-supporting properties. Vitamin C aids immune function, while vitamin A supports skin health and vision.
Just a warning/ peppermint can increase sexual desires, if applied to private areas, so please be wise. Also, if you are allergic to rosemary try this treatment with peppermint only..
also, if you have a sore on your leg or foot, drinking clove tea and cinnamon can aid in the healing process., but clove has a negative impact on dementia, so it’s encouraged not to consume, if you have dementia.
