Arthritis
As we get older, our cartilage often starts to deteriorate causing pain in the joints
that we most commonly use, the hands, knees, back, and hips. This generally
starts with simple morning stiffness and you may have painful or swollen joints.
Often times it can’t be detected through a x-ray or scan but the pain your feeling
is very real. There are over 200 diseases that are associated with either
Osteoarthritis or Rheumatoid Arthritis. There are many causes, including trauma
or accident, immune deficiency, or infection, being overweight, high fatty diet or
even food allergies. Contrary to popular belief, the joint inflammation and pain
subside in normal cases, after the cause goes away or is treated. Osteoarthritis is
the more common of the two. Osteoarthritis causes joint pain, swelling, stiffness,
and limited movement and can reduce the ability to move the joint, redness and
warmth around a joint and stiffness after being stationary for long periods.
Rheumatoid arthritis carries the same yet exaggerated symptoms and may
include a discoloration in joints, lumps under skin at site, or severe pain.

2. Treatment:
The goal of treatment is to reduce pain and inflammation, improve function, and
prevent further joint damage. To accomplish this we should step up our activity
level through proper exercises, change our diet and add proper supplements. You
may also try stress reduction activities and aromatherapy. So let’s take these one
by one!
Reduce the pain:
Many practitioners will guide you to the Tylenol and Ibuprofen counters to
remedy the pain or they will prescribe a pain medication and a anti-inflammatory.
This will certainly help the pain but know that it has been found that pain
reducers as well as anti-inflammatory over the counter and prescription
medications can actually worsen and speed up the deterioration of a joint
cartilage.
 Turmeric (Indian Saffron)- 500mg, up to three times a day for inflammation
of the joints and muscles. You may also try alternating heat and cold packs
for more immediate relief. By reducing the inflammation, you will reduce
the pain.
 Enroll or start a mild exercise program which concentrates on range of
motion, isometrics and swimming.
 Fish Oil- A daily dose of 1.8mg of DHA and 1.2mg of EPA.
 40mg Collagen per day- To help rebuild the cartilage. There are more than
25 types of collagens that naturally occur in the body. Collagen is one of the
most plentiful proteins present in humans and it makes up about 25
percent of the total amount of proteins in the body. Some people refer to
collagen as the glue that holds the body together. Without it, the body
would, quite literally, fall apart.
 An alternative to the Turmeric and Collagen which can also be effective is
Glucosamine sulfate (1500mg daily) and chondroitin sulfate (600mg-
1200mg daily). These are taken together and will produce the same effects.
One of these treatments is often a great supplement for minor arthritis pains
where as a combination of treatments may be needed for Rheumatoid or other
more debilitating of symptoms. Note: These are only a couple of the many holistic
and homeopathic remedies. Others will be discussed in our website.

3. Dietary Considerations: I would like to make a note hear that the more of these
dietary changes you can make, the better you will be able to control your arthritis
pain.
 Cut down on Red Meat, eggs, saturated fat, oily or fried foods, breads and
pasta’s Alcohol and caffeine.
 Eat foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as cold water fish (salmon,
mackerel, and herring), flax seed, rapeseed (canola) oil, soybeans, soybean
oil, pumpkin seeds, and walnuts.
 Eat a high fiber diet full of raw fruits and vegetables, which contain
important vitamins and minerals, especially vitamin E.
 Asparagus, cabbage, garlic or onion is high in sulfur and one of these should
be eaten every day.
 Broccoli and Cauliflower are good for inflammation
 WATER!!!! WATER!!!! WATER!!!! What more can I say………. The more the
better.
