After a recent study revealed\u00a0the harms of paracetamol,<\/strong> the media and the public have been in turmoil. The drug we are all guilty of being too reliant on, paracetamol, is not as harmless as we had thought<\/a>. According to researchers, whose study was published in the journal\u00a0Annals of Rheumatic Diseases<\/em>, the drug is detrimental\u00a0to not only the\u00a0kidneys, but also the liver, the stomach and the heart \u2014 basically all our major organs.<\/p>

But not to worry, one or two occasional pops of paracetamol to calm that migraine<\/a> isn't particularly dangerous. In fact,\u00a0the World Health Organization still recommends them\u00a0as the first line of defence to various types of pain.<\/p>

Just a tip to remember is to not\u00a0rush into swallowing painkillers\u00a0without considering the side effects. Instead, here are four very effective natural remedies<\/a> that will relieve you from the everyday pain.<\/p>
