I found this in the City Times newspaper in an article titled Spice Up Your Life dated June 17th'03. I was thrilled when I tried this on my mom few days back and it gave her terrific relief from her headache. Being someone who totally dislikes having pills, tonics and applying ointments and balms, I am one happy girl to have such an easy recipe on hand, that drives away headaches and is much cheaper on my pocket than what pills, tonics and other medicines would cost. The wonders of spices are so good, indeed! Try it, and let me know!
