Many arthritis sufferers do not like the idea of conventional medicine as a means of treating their ailment. They want http://www.arthritisnatural.com>natural arthritis relief.
There are those who claim that, if a pill comes from ingredients from a plant, it is therefore "natural" and suitable for human consumption. They ignore the fact that extracts of plants and herbs are chemicals - and some chemicals can kill!
Prescription medicines have undergone numerous tests, following rigid procedures until there is evidence that any drug or treatment really does work. Most natural products have not undergone such testing.
Many so-called "quack" remedies fall in the "natural" category; their acceptance depends on the fact that, for some unknown reason, the pain of arthritis tends to flare up and then subside. Frequently the symptoms subside while the patient is taking a particular "miracle cure" and the arthritis sufferer believes he or she is cured. However, it is not uncommon for the symptoms to return, worse than ever. The fact is, virtually any new treatment, effective or not, often seems to help at first, simply because the sufferer wants it to so desperately.
Willow Bark is an example of how "natural" remedies can gain their reputation. Willow Bark is used in treating arthritis but its' effect is a result of the salicylates or everyday aspirin it contains. Devil's Claw is also used to treat arthritis - and it is an analgesic (pain killer)that makes people consider it a "natural" remedy.
A product prepared from freeze-dried extract of green-lipped New Zealand mussels was touted as being effective in relieving the painful swelling and stiffness of arthritis; a variety of gold-based compounds make up a variety of drugs which temporarily banish the painful symptoms of arthritis; relief from arthritic pain is sought by many, especially sportsmen, wearing magnetic bracelets. Does it matter if these products actually work - or if the individuals just believe they do?
Actually it does matter: many of the untested products can cause serious side-effects - especially over the long term.
And what of our diets? Numerous theories have come and gone, including a "No Nightshade" diet et which eliminates members of the nightshade family of plants. Another theory "advised sufferers of rheumatoid arthritis to eat like the Eskimos!" Current advice follows along the lines of that given for sufferers of heart problems: eat lots of fish, cut back on animal fats, include plenty of fruits and vegetables. Experiment with eliminating dairy products. Does it make a difference in joint pain or stiffness?
Some of the most natural ways of dealing with arthritis may be just plain common sense: losing excess weight, mild exercise, reasonable rest, using moist and local heat to give the joint flexibility.
