Arthritic Relief
While arthritis is becoming increasingly common, aggravated by factors of modern living - its naturally treated by attending to the basics; circulation, detoxification and nutrition - where it's needed, in the joints.
As any sufferer will attest to, arthritic conditions involve pain, aching and stiffness in the joints that can make even simple tasks difficult to perform. Chronic arthritis can lead to deformity of the joint if left untreated. Arthritic pain may come on suddenly or build slowly over many years. The most common types are osteoarthritis and rheumatiod arthritis and both can lead to severe joint destruction. Conditions such as gout involve a build-up of acid and metabolic wastes within the muscles and joints and is more common in those with a rich diet and lack of mobility.
Many factors of modern living aggravate arthritic conditions leading to its increased prevalence worldwide. Never before has our bodily systems involved in detoxofication and immunity had to deal with such a myriad onslaught of foreign chemicals in our food chain, water supply, homes and workplace. Our joints are naturally subject to wear and tear with ageing. This is further aggravated by the reduction of circulatory strength that comes with ageing, being overweight or through a sedantary lifestyle. As such, all these factors contribute to our compromised capacity for detoxification and immune response and these areas of inflamed joints and neighbouring tissues attract an excessive inflammatory response that our overburdened system cannot adequately control. Women are generally 2-3 times more likely to suffer from arthritic conditions, while men are more suscetible to gout.
Many of the drugs and over the counter remedies commonly taken for arthritis bring only temporary relief and often further contribute to the overall condition of toxicity and pharmaceutical dependancy. Thankfully, specific tropical herbs and spices contain powerful natural anti-inflammatory compounds that combined with potent circulatory detoxifiers, accelerate the removal of wastes, acids and inflammatory compounds, resulting in natural and lasting relief long after the discontinuation of the herbal medication.
