The first place many of us turn for headache relief is to a bottle of acetaminophen-laced pills. We don’t blame you…it does work. But the problem is that it’s dangerous to take it all the time.

Constant use of acetaminophen can cause liver damage, kidney damage, and even stomach bleeding. That’s why it’s important to find an alternative that works just as good…without any side effects. Now, research shows that one natural oil can fill that role.

A German study from the highly-regarded University of Kiel shows that applying this oil to your head can significantly reduce headache intensity after 15 minutes.
