Arthritis is the inflammation of one
or more joints in the body. It affects nearly 70 million
adults in the United States. That is approximately 1 in
3 Americans. In recent data compiled by the Center for
Disease Control (CDC), arthritis is the leading cause of
disability in the United States. In 2001, 49 million
Americans reported doctor-diagnosed arthritis and
another 21 million reported having symptoms of
arthritis.

The term arthritis refers to more than
100 different rheumatic diseases that affect joints,
muscle, bone, and other tissues. Research has shown a
connection between food, nutritional supplements, and
the three major forms of arthritis: rheumatoid,
osteoarthritis, and gouty arthritis.
Osteoarthritis affects approximately 20 million people
in the United States. Scientists have not determined the
cause of the disease; however, a combination of several
factors such as joint injury, being overweight, the
aging process, and "wear and tear" from stress may
increase the risk of developing osteoarthritis.
Although symptoms vary among individuals, they all stem
from joint deterioration. In some, the disease may
progress more rapidly than others. One of the most
common symptoms of osteoarthritis is joint pain, which
can be triggered by certain activities like running or
jogging or when the body is at rest. Osteoarthritis
affects more men under age 45 than women, and more women
after the age of 45 than men.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory condition
that affects the entire body that usually involves
several synovial joints, typically in a symmetrical
fashion (i.e. both feet, knees, ankles). Rheumatoid
Arthritis is an autoimmune reaction where antibodies
develop against components of joint tissue and begin to
attack the joints within the body. Over time, cartilage
that cushions joints wears down and the bones start
rubbing against each other. X-rays usually show soft
tissue swelling, erosion of cartilage, and narrowing of
the space between joints. Later stages of rheumatoid
arthritis may cause deformation of the joints.
Twice as many women are affected with symptoms of
Rheumatoid Arthritis as men. Symptoms usually develop
between 30 and 50 years. Arthritin includes a number of
homeopathic medicines, which specifically relieve
inflammation and swelling caused by joint degeneration
and arthritis.

Gouty arthritis is the most painful
chronic inflammatory arthritis. Gouty arthritis or gout
is a metabolic disorder in which uric acid builds up
forming crystals in the fluid that lubricates the joint.
Uric acid, a result of broken down purines that are a
part of all human tissue and found in many foods, is
normally dissolved or passed through the kidneys and
eliminated. When this process does not take place, it
builds up in the blood (a condition called hyperuricemia)
potentially leading to gouty arthritis or kidney stones.
Patients with gouty arthritis complain of tenderness,
redness, and warmth around swelling joints. Gout or
gouty arthritis commonly affects the big toe but can
also involve the heels, ankles, knees, wrists, elbows,
and fingers. The symptoms develop quickly and usually
occur at night. Gouty arthritis accounts for
approximately 5% of all cases of arthritis. If you are
suffering from gout, avoid foods high in purines and
proteins such as beans and meats.
In general, people with arthritis should avoid red
meats, tea, coffee, dairy products, fried foods,
chocolate, preservatives, additives, and nightshade
plants such as peppers, tomatoes, white potatoes,
eggplant and tobacco. Also, consuming acid-forming foods
such as most high protein foods (meat, fish, poultry and
eggs), nearly all carbohydrates (including grains, bread
and pastas), and fats can create an imbalanced acidic
internal environment known as acidosis.

An acidic internal
environment increases calcium buildup in the arteries.
With free calcium populations and channels disrupted,
calcium may be leached from bone mass and teeth causing
osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, tooth loss and other
degenerative diseases. Take Buffer-pH+ daily to help
balance your system while also taking a Calcium Citrate
supplement to maintain healthy bones. Medical literature
contains many documented cases that indicate how diet
modification can improve inflammatory arthritis.
People with arthritis should consume fish or foods rich
in Omega 3 fatty acids and vitamin E such as walnuts,
Brazil nuts, almonds, sunflower seeds, linseeds and
pumpkins seeds. Also try to include anti-inflammatory
foods such turmeric, ginger, garlic and apples into your
diet. Arthritin includes omega-3 fatty acids and
essential omega 6 fatty acid (which also reduces
inflammation and edema of swollen joints) that acts as a
natural precursor to all the essential eicosanoids,
necessary for growth and regeneration of tissue.
For all of the above forms of arthritis try Arthritin, a
homeopathic herbal remedy that offers a natural
alternative for arthritis without the long-term use and
subsequent dangers of NSAID's (Non-Steroidal
Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) such as common aspirin,
ibuprofen, naproxen, and others.
