Natural Cures For Arthritis, Natural Treatments And Remedies

The word arthritis is related to pain, swelling, stiffness, deformity and also the restricted motion. It is a most common problem which affects the musculoskeletal system. People suffer from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and also from the similar condition like gout, fibromyalgia, ankylosing spondylitis and lupus. The two most important types of arthritis which affects most of the people are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. The arthritis which is caused by the wear and tear of the cartilage is known as osteoarthritis and the arthritis which is associated with the overactive immune system and result into the inflammation causing pain in the joint is called rheumatoid arthritis. It is an essentially joint inflammation and one of the most common chronic diseases which is known to man.

According to the form of arthritis we can identify the cause of arthritis. Different causes of arthritis includes injury which leads to osteoarthritis, hereditary factors, infections, metabolic abnormalities which includes gout and many other unclear reasons like rheumatoid arthritis.

In different people the cause, treatment, prognoses, complications are different. But all the people have same tendency to affect the ligaments, cartilage, muscles, joints etc.

It is a general opinion of the patient of the arthritis that it is not curable. There is no permanent cure for this disorder. Any medicine will give temporary relief from this problem. Usually people take aspirin types of medicine which in long run not only accelerate the progression of arthritis but also there are many side affects like headache, vomiting, abdominal pain, allergic reactions, dizziness etc. So it is advisable that medicine like this type should be minimized.

Instead of these medicines people must take the supplements which help in regenerating the cartilage. An important thing to thicken the cartilage is to follow the right condition in your life and food style. It includes and instructs to take a diet which is low acid diet that means it is necessary to avoid meat, tomatoes, coffee soda, refined flour etc. You must eat raw fruits, vegetables, fish and whole grains in sufficient quantity. To remove toxins you must drink plenty of water. It is necessary as it replenish the cartilage, cushion, and removes the toxin. Enrich your diet with the supplements like garlic, primrose or flaxseed and bromelain. You must also increase the intake of vitamins and minerals like vitamin E, C, calcium, magnesium, manganese and silica. Pain due to inflammation is reduced by botanicals such as yucca and devil's claw.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. QUESTION:
   What are some natural cures for rheumatoid arthritis?
   homeopathy or other alternative methods
   
   • ANSWER:
     RA is an auto immune disorder. Which is typically caused by a what is called a leaky gut. Drugs such as antibiotics, birth control pills, and cortisone (sp?) PROMOTE leaky gut!
     Those drugs and others allow yeast to flourish and sprout roots, poking holes in your intestinal wall...or "leaky gut."
     This allows food particles to pass through including proteins. Your immune system thinks the food particles are parasites, so it attacks the food particle.
     After a while, your over stimulated immune system goes bonkers and starts to attack tissues in your body. In your case, it has focused on your joints.
     So when the doctor prescribes corticosteroids for RA they are unwittingly promoting it.
     To fix leaky gut, you need to do at least three things.
     1- Take either olive leaf extract for a few months or Candistroy for a month or two.
     2- Take PB-8 or another excellent probiotic. Avoid cheap products.
     3- Take Glutamine or IntestiNew.
     4- Take 4,000 to 6,000 mg of fish oil daily. This will help to correct the imbalanced metabolism and reduce inflammation.
     Get enteric coated to prevent burping. Or emulsified fish oil.
     Also AVOID antibiotics, steroids, and birth control pills.

   • ANSWER:

3. QUESTION:
   what is a natural cure for arthritis pain and where can you get it?
   
   • ANSWER:
     DMSO, it works wonders. Go buy a book on the subject that details exactly what it does.
     With a lot of other treatments, they might work, possibly slightly improve the symptoms etc etc etc, however DMSO flat out fixes it.
     If theres some sort of autoimmune problem going on, additional things might be needed, but I would start there. It works, really.
4. QUESTION:
   Arthritis: what natural supplement or treatment works?
   My best friend's been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. He's terrified he'll end up in a wheelchair sooner or later, and he's not keen on traditional 'drugs', since they create so many side effects... He has pains, stiffness, a stiff sore leg and arm all time, sometimes he says that every joint in his body aches. He's not even 40 yet! He was an athlete until recently and he's concerned his arthritis won't let him continue to do all the sports he loves doing.
   So, which are the most effective natural cures, natural treatments against arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis in particular? From herbs to homeopathy, anything that actually works. Thank you.
   
   • ANSWER:
     Rheumatoid Arthritis can be absolutely awful and it can even render someone unable to walk, so I understand your friend's fears. However, it is absolutely treatable. Moreover, it's made of flare ups and remission periods when the body shows no signs of the disease. The secret is to make the remission periods last longer and longer and the flare ups be shorter and shorter as well as increasingly milder until they become almost insignificant.
     I'll give you a generic answer here because going into the specifics requires pages. Supplements such as herbs or fish oils, or evening primrose and the like tend to be effective in the short term, as aids to improve joint mobility and decrease the inflammation which damages the joint. They can be very useful and your friend needs to research which one works for him best, since our bodies react differently to different supplements. My sister takes fish oil (Omega 3), garlic pills, Vit D, Vit C, Vit A, Anti-Oxidants, Evening Primrose Oil and Vitex. They all work but there are many more which may be better for your friend.
     Homeopathically, the remedies are individually-diagnosed because the root reason why your friend's body started to attack itself (which happens with Rheumatoid Arthritis) is different from that of another sufferer. Moreover, the cluster of signs and symptoms accompanying his arthritis will also be different and, since homeopathic remedies cure the whole body, he needs to find the remedy which addresses all his problems. Only a very good homeopath can do that, unless your knowledge of homeopathy is deep.

6. QUESTION:
   is there any natural cure for arthritis. I am in so much pain and?
   find myself reaching occasionally for anti inflammatory drugs.
   This killed my mom essentially..she took Motrin for arthritis and it damaged her kidney ad she wound up on dialysis which made her suffer so much,. It also increases chance of heart attacks 30 times. This lead her to have 9 heart attacks in one year, the last one killing her in great agony 6 months ago.
   I am fearful of going sown the same road.
   Is there anything I can do to reverse and cure arthritis or at least help it (I also have gout) and what can I take alternatively for pain. (do not say weed please)
   
   • ANSWER:
     There is no cure for arthritis. There are however natural ways of treating the symptoms that can both relieve the pain and slow down the progression of the disease.
     Omega 3 fatty acids are as effective as over the counter anti-inflammatories such as Motrin. If the omega 3 comes from a fish source make sure it is purified to remove heavy metals such as lead and mercury.
     Turmeric, which comes from the spice curry, is also a good natural anti-inflammatory.
     There is also a supplement called Cetyl Myristoleate that I personally take for my osteoarthritis.

   Thank you, prefer an answer sent to sww888@aol.com
   GOD BLESS!

   • ANSWER:
     I realize you are asking for natural cures, but, if I were in your place, knowing that I had a disease that could permanently cause crippling arthritis, and there was the possibilty of starting a biologic agent, such as Humira, which could prevent that, I'd certainly look into that treatment.
9. QUESTION:
   can anyone recommend some natural cure against arthritis ?
   
   • ANSWER:
     Xango juice, made from Mangosteen. All natural, all juice and has been known to cure cancer. Has Donnie and Marie Osmonds' nephew as a spokes person.
10. QUESTION:
    Is there a natural cure for arthritis.?
    
    • ANSWER:
      There are very effective scientifically proven natural treatments for arthritis.
      First and foremost, if you are overweight, get down to your target weight so that your joints have less weight to carry around.
      Diet:
      Eliminate nightshades. Eliminating nightshades, which include potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, and most peppers, relieves arthritis.
      A vegetarian diet is also helpful, but it takes time to see the difference.
      Switch from bad to good fats. One of the known correlations between food and arthritis is that omega-6 fatty acids increase inflammation, and omega-3 fatty acids reduce it. Limit intake of meat and poultry, and increase your intake of cold-water fish, such as sardines, mackerel, trout, and salmon. For salad dressings and cooking, substitute olive, canola, and flaxseed oils for corn, safflower, and sunflower oils.
      Drink three to four cups a day of green tea. Studies funded by the Arthritis Foundation showed that giving the polyphenolic compounds in green tea to mice significantly decreased the incidence and severity of Rheumatoid Arthritis.
      Supplements from A to Z:
      Boron. Population studies show that people who have high-boron diets have a very low incidence of arthritis, and there's evidence that people with OA and RA can benefit. The best sources of boron are fresh fruits and vegetables and, depending on where you live, drinking water.
      Bromelain. This substance found in pineapple relieves pain and swelling in OA and RA and improve mobility. One study of a bromelain supplement containing the enzymes rutin and trypsin relieved pain and improved function in 73 people with knee OA. The effect was similar to taking an NSAID.
      Chondroitin sulfate. Used for many years in Europe to relieve OA pain, it's been shown to stop joint degeneration, improve function, and ease pain. One study followed patients with OA in finger joints for three years, and showed fewer patients developed further cartilage damage. It can take two months or more to realize the effects of chondroitin.
      GLA: Gamma linolenic acid (GLA) is an omega-6 fatty acid the body uses to make anti-inflammatory agents, unlike other omega-6 fatty acids that actually increase inflammation. It's found in evening primrose oil, black currant oil, and borage oil supplements. Several studies show it relieves the stiffness and pain of RA. In one study, some patients were able to quit taking NSAIDs.
      Ginger is known to have painkilling and anti-inflammatory agents. Ginger reduces joint pain and inflammation in people with OA and RA, and protects the stomach from gastrointestinal effects of NSAIDs. A clinical study showed ginger reduced knee OA pain.
      Glucosamine. As glucosamine hydrochloride or glucosamine sulfate, this supplement relieves symptoms for many people with OA. It helps the body build and repair cartilage. In a double-blind study, glucosamine sulfate was as effective in relieving symptoms in patients with knee OA as ibuprofen and had fewer side effects. It takes about two months to realize the effectiveness of this supplement. And it's derived from crab, lobster, or shrimp shells, so check with your doctor before taking any kind of glucosamine if you are allergic to shellfish.
      SAM-e. Many European studies over the last 20 years show SAM-e is as effective as anti-inflammatory painkillers in treating OA but with fewer side effects. It works in conjunction with vitamin B-12, B-6, and folate.
      Stinging nettle. Taken orally or applied to the skin, stinging nettle reduces the pain and inflammation of OA. Some studies show that patients can lower their dosages of NSAIDs by taking stinging nettle in extract form. Two small studies showed stinging nettle applied topically reduced pain for people with hip OA and thumb joint pain.
      Turmeric. This supplement is used in traditional medicine to relieve pain, stiffness, and inflammation of OA and RA. A small study that combined turmeric, boswellia, and zinc showed decreased pain in OA. Two studies using a combination of turmeric, boswellia, ginger, and aswangandha relieved pain and inflammation in RA.
