Opium-like painkiller alternative can be found growing in your backyard

Many people rely on over-the-counter or prescription pain medication, but these come with the risk of severe side effects and drug dependency issues. A large segment of our population is popping these highly addictive meds like candy, often masking the problem rather than fixing it.

Did you know that many herbs and spices can treat inflammation and other related conditions that cause acute or chronic pain? Big Pharma, or the "legal drug lords" as Natural Blaze calls them, have most of us believing that if you want the "good stuff," you need their drugs.

While they are laughing their way to the bank, millions of people are becoming addicted to these pills, which has led to the current epidemic of opioid addictions and overdoses. In the United States, it is so bad that prescription opioid-related deaths have surpassed gun-related deaths. Furthermore, once these people are caught in the web of a "legal" drug addiction, the step to the illegal market and heroin is easily made when they get turned away from the medical system.
