The Nutritional Facts About Arthritis
'Arthritis' means inflammation of a joint and the two major
forms of arthritis are Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid arthritis.
Common in the elderly is the Osteoarthritis; this mainly affects
the weight-bearing joints such as the hips, spine, knees, elbows
and also the finger joints. The cartilage is worn away producing
pain and stiffness. Rheumatoid arthritis can affect the whole
body not just the joints.
A diet high in fruits and vegetables (vitamin C and E) can slow
the onslaught of Arthritis and also reduce pain and
inflammation. Eating oily fish such as salmon, tuna, herring,
mackerel, trout, sardines which are high in Omega-3 fish oil
which has an anti-inflammatory effect may be beneficial in
reducing inflammation, swelling and pain. Avoiding adrenal
stimulants such as coffee, tea, sugar, alcohol and refined
carbohydrates and drinking plenty of mineral water
will also
help.
Losing excess weight, gentle exercise, applying hot and cold
compresses and sleeping on a comfortable bed will also be
beneficial.
The following supplements may help if you are suffering from
Arthritis.
Aloe vera Antioxidant complex Bone mineral complex Cod liver oil
- high strength Devil's claw extract Glucosamine sulphate

extract Omega-3 fish oil Vitamin B5 Vitamin C Vitamin E
Note: Before taking any supplements please consult your Doctor
and a Nutritional Therapist, some supplements can cause adverse
health problems when taken with prescribed medicine or when
suffer from a certain illness.
