Time to read 3 min
Inflammation isn’t always the enemy — it’s your body’s natural defense. But when it sticks around too long, it can lead to fatigue, joint pain, and sluggish recovery. The good news? You don’t need a lab full of supplements to bring balance back. You can start in your own kitchen — with anti inflammatory shots.
In this guide, we’ll cover:
What anti-inflammatory shots are (and why they work)
The key ingredients your body loves
How to make homemade turmeric and ginger shots
The science behind fresh-pressed vs. powdered wellness drinks
When to make your own — and when to reach for a doctor-crafted option like Elixir Shots
🌿 What Are Anti-Inflammatory Shots?
Anti-inflammatory shots are concentrated blends of roots, fruits, and spices that help the body calm systemic inflammation. Think of them as liquid wellness: dense, functional nutrition in a few sips.
The best blends use ingredients proven to reduce oxidative stress and support liver and immune function — especially turmeric, ginger, and citrus.
While powders and shelf-stable tonics often promise the same thing, their potency is usually lost through heat, pasteurization, and time. That’s why freshness equals function — the closer to the harvest, the more active compounds your body can actually use.
💛 Hero Ingredients for Natural Inflammation Support
1. Turmeric
The star player in any anti-inflammatory shot.
Curcuminoids — the active compounds — help regulate inflammation and support joint and liver health.
Pro tip: Pair turmeric with black pepper. Piperine in black pepper boosts curcumin absorption by up to 2,000%.
2. Ginger
A powerful digestive and circulatory ally.
Gingerols and shogaols help reduce inflammation and improve recovery after physical stress.
Fresh ginger also adds a warming, spicy kick.
3. Citrus (Lemon or Orange)
Provides natural vitamin C and antioxidants to support immunity.
The acidity also helps preserve the shot naturally and enhance bioavailability of root compounds.
4. Pineapple (Optional)
Contains bromelain, an enzyme known for supporting digestion and joint health.
🍋 DIY Anti-Inflammatory Shot Recipe
Here’s a simple recipe inspired by Elixir’s doctor-crafted Immunity Shots — no powders, no preservatives, just real roots.
Ingredients (makes 4–6 shots):
3-inch piece fresh turmeric root
2-inch piece fresh ginger root
1.5 oranges, peeled
Pinch of black pepper
Instructions:
Wash and roughly chop all roots and citrus.
Add to a juicer or high-speed blender with water.
Blend until smooth, then strain through a fine mesh or nut milk bag.
Pour into small glass jars or shot bottles and store refrigerated for up to 5 days.
Shake before each use — that golden sediment at the bottom means it’s alive and real.
🔬 Why Fresh-Pressed Beats Powdered
Most turmeric powders or “wellness elixirs” on the shelf have already lost much of their active compound power. Once roots are dried or pasteurized, the curcuminoids and nitrates that drive inflammation support can degrade by more than half.
Cold-pressed ingredients, on the other hand, retain their natural structure — meaning more functional compounds reach your bloodstream.
That’s why Elixir Shots presses fresh roots within 30 days of harvest and never heats or pasteurizes. Each Immunity Shot packs:
15,000 mg Red Hawaiian Turmeric
20,000 mg Peruvian Ginger
Valencia Orange + Black Pepper
— cold-pressed and refrigerated, just as nature intended.
🧊 When to DIY vs. When to Buy Fresh
