Do you or any of your loved ones have arthritis pain? Is there a natural arthritis treatment? Can we find a cure in nature when it comes to the treatment of arthritis?
Arthritis (‘arth’ meaning joint, ‘itis’ meaning inflammation) isn’t a one-note story or even a few variations on a single theme; it actually consists of more than 100 different conditions. Swelling of the joints accompanied by debilitating pain is a sure sign of arthritis.
The most common misconception about arthritis is that it is a disease only of older people. In fact, arthritis afflicts people of all ages, even children, when it is called juvenile arthritis.
“Arthritis is the number one cause of disability, and the new data confirms that arthritis and chronic joint symptoms are one of our most common public health problems.”
- from a statement released by the CDC (Oct. 2002)
Arthritis or chronic joint symptoms affect approximately 70 million adults, or roughly 1 in 3 Americans.
One of the most difficult things to accept about arthritis is that there’s no cure - not yet, anyway. Fortunately, arthritis can be managed through a combination of medication, exercise, rest, weight-management, nutrition, and, in some cases, surgery. But, for some people with some forms of arthritis, current therapeutic strategies simply aren’t as effective as they’d like them to be. Well, then, what about trying something else? It is suggested that supplementation may not only relieve symptoms, but may help stall the progress of the disease.
