WHAT’S HOT NOW
From fresher breath to winning snacks, pill-free pain relief to glowing skin, we’ve got you covered this autumn
BACK TO GOOD HEALTH
Painkillers are rarely out of the news; the number of prescriptions for powerful ones have nearly doubled in 10 years in England, so maybe we need to investigate drug-free ways of tackling those aches and pains. These tablets are designed to relieve backache, minor sports injuries and rheumatic pains thanks to a plant called sigesbeckia, which has a powerful antiinflammatory effect. Take it for a month and see if you feel a difference.

Breath of fresh… breath
We all assume mint is the best breath freshener, but new research has shown that a compound found in ginger stimulates an enzyme in saliva that breaks down foul smells, ensuring fresh breath and a better aftertaste. In fact, ginger increased levels of this freshening enzyme 16-fold in just a few seconds, wiping out nasty aftertastes (hello, lingering espresso) and keeping breath as clean and pleasant as fresh mountain air.
