Natural Arthritis Treatment Research
There has been a lot of new research done for
natural arthritis treatment. Some old methods that have been used by
people since ancient times are now being found to be effective.
- Acupuncture: this ancient Chinese form of medicine
has been used for many centuries to manage pain. A recent study in the UK
at Sheffield University showed some positive results. 159 people took part
in the clinical trial. Results showed that 50% of these participants
showed signs of improvement and after 2 years reported that the back pain
had completely disappeared.
- Willow bark extract: is another old method of
natural arthritis treatment. It works in a similar way to aspirin
because it has salicin which is made into salicin acid by the body. Its
effectiveness was acknowledged by the American Journal of Medicine.
A clinical study showed that people
taking willow bark extract for lower back pain got relief in as little as
7 days.
- Vinegar: when vinegar is taken regularly it can also
help with the pain caused by inflammation from this disease. As a
natural arthritis treatment it also works in the same way as aspirin.
The amount you need will depend on your own body’s chemistry.
- Vitamin D: the reason for some back pain is a
deficiency in this vitamin. Because vitamin D is essential to healthy
bones lack of it is thought to weaken the bones causing back pain. The
National Osteoporosis Foundation recommends that patients consume 400-800
IU of vitamin D on a daily basis.
- Antioxidants: these substances also work as a
natural arthritis treatment and are found in many fruits and
vegetables. Vitamin E and C are just 2 vitamins that have these
properties. Recently it has been found that Sea Cucumber (known as
"Marine Care") can help to reduce
inflammation and even repair damaged cartilage.
There are many different natural remedies for arthritis
but because there are over 100 varieties of this disease it is difficult to
find an actual cure. Many of these remedies will work with your body’s own
natural resources so their effectiveness will depend on person to person.
