Reduce Arthritis Pain & Inflammation Naturally

There are a number of natural ways to reduce arthritis and inflammation pain , without any significant potential for side effects:

1.  Tumeric : Circumin, the active compound in tumeric is a powerful anti-inflammatory.  Asian medicine has used turmeric as an anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and antioxidant agent for centuries. Now, research studies provide backing for claims of turmeric's anti-inflammatory effects.  Tumeric rivals over the counter and prescribed medications for handling arthritic inflammation.

2.  Ginger: Ginger has the ability to reduce inflammation. According to the authors in a study published in January 2011 in "Fitoterapia," ginger has been found to improve knee pain in people with osteoarthritis.  For many individuals, ginger can be just as effective as ibuprofen for arthritic pain relief, without the side-effects. It also relieves upset stomachs.

3.  Omega 3 Fats: The imbalanced ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acids in the standard American diet (SAD) accounts for much of America’s inflammatory disease problems, with omega 6 fatty acids being consumed in abundance over omega 3′s.

Omega 3 fats have prostaglandin- lowering effects.  Prostaglandins are associated with inflammation.

Animal based Omega-3 fats are considered the most directly bio-available. This includes fish or krill oils and eggs from free grazing pasture hens. It’s also available from oily fish, such as salmon and meats from grass fed cattle. Plant based omega-3 fats are found in freshly ground flax seeds, chia seed (unground), and hemp seeds.

4.  Cherries:- Consuming all forms of cherries are effective. They contain substances called anthocyanosides, which are very effective at lowering uric acid levels. Eating cherries is also among the most effective home remedies for gout.

5.  Pineapple: Fresh pineapples contain anti-inflammatory bromelain in their cores. So use the core as well. Or you can take bromelain supplements.

6.  Raw Apple Cider Vinegar:  Raw means unpasteurized. It should also be unfiltered, with the “mother” still in the bottle. Bragg’s is a popular brand, but there are others. Raw ACV’s acidity turns to alkaline when digested. As a bonus apple cider vinegar is an amazing solution for countless health issues.

Consult with your pharmacist to make sure there are no contraindications to any food, supplement or herb that you may want to start consuming, with any medication that you are currently taking.
