Also, the specific combinations that had the strongest effect were capsaicin (chili peppers) plus either cineole (eucalyptus) or especially menthol (mint). (The latter two have similar pathways, while the capsaicin is distinct; the benefit comes from using both pathways together.)

I hate clickbait as much as anyone, but it's in the summary: "everyday plant compounds—**like** menthol from mint, cineole from eucalyptus, and capsaicin from chili peppers—can team up" They are just examples. I'm not going to give a list of examples in the title.

Please don’t mix chilli peppers with anti-inflammatory drugs, they wreck your guts as it is lol.
