Extraction: Pain Management Smörgåsbord

Experimentation
With food remedies,
To ease my pain
Has produced results,

Vitamin D:
Positive effects seen
On arthritis foot pain
Within six months;

Jalepino peppers:
Less foot pain again
Three months
And counting;

Raw fresh ginger,
In foods and drinks
And even straight up
Three times a day,

This oddly-shaped root
That grows
In exotic places
Produces amazing results:

Less pain in the joints,
Less achiness
Over time
And only after six weeks;

But yet still
The best remedy of all
Seems to be regular exercise
And a regular schedule with regular rest,

A tall order sometimes
But helpful
When possible
Nevertheless.
