3 Easy Natural Cures For Rheumatoid Arthritis


Do you suffer from rhuematoid arthritis? You may feel you're facing a grim diagnosis, but don't despair! There are many natural cures for rheumatoid arthritis that don't rely on dangerous treatments or prescription medication with harmful side effects. Millions of people suffer from this disease but many of them have been successful at treating the pain with simple, safe, all-natural methods.

Diet

Believe it or not, your diet is one of the biggest contributing factors to the advancement of RA. In particular, saturated fats are known to cause inflammation so you should try to avoid most animal products, especially bacon, steak, cream, and butter. Many feel that simply switching over to a vegetarian or vegan diet is one of the best natural cures for rheumatoid arthritis. It is also very important to consume lots of probiotics and omega-3 fatty acids. Some studies have even shown alcohol to be effective at preventing and treating RA. But always remember to talk to your doctor before drinking anything, especially if you are taking medications.

Glucosamine

Glucosamine is a naturally-occurring substance found in the fluid around the joints. It is used to make and repair cartilage. Glucosamine has been shown to be a highly effective treatment for osteoarthritis and shows promise as a fantastic natural cure for rheumatoid arthritis. Its anti-inflammatory properties make it an effective pain reliever. It is especially effective when used in conjunction with Chondroitin, which keeps cartilage strong and resilient. You can buy these supplements in most drug and grocery stores.

Ginger

Ginger is well-known to provide relief for upset stomachs. Few people realize that it is also a natural cure for rheumatoid arthritis! It lowers the hormones that contribute to inflammation in the body, and studies have revealed it to be as effective as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory prescription drugs. Experts recommend taking ginger supplements or drinking ginger-infused tea on a regular basis.

  2. It is my contention that rheumatoid arthritis is either caused by a potassium deficiency or is greatly enabled by one (Potassium in the etiology of rheumatoid arthritis and heart infarction. 1974 Journal of Applied Nutrition. 26; p40. ) (Potassium deficiency as a cause of rheumatoid arthritis. 2000 Townsend Letter for Doctors and Patients. 208; 74-76. ) ( http://charles_w.tripod.com/arthritis.html ). Dr. Reza Rastmanesh has performed a clinical trial that establishes this (Rastmanesh R. 2008 A pilot study of potassium supplementation in treatment of hypokalemic patients with rheumatoid arthritis: A randomized, double-blinded placebo controlled trial. The Journal of Pain. 9, issue 8; 722-731. ).
    Potassium should be automatically prescribed for rheumatoid arthritis because getting potassium up to normal from the low values in all RA patients (LaCelle PL et al 1964 An investigation of total body potassium in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Proceedings Ann. Meeting of the Rheumatism Association, Arthritis & Rheumatism 7; 321 ) (Sambrook PN, Ansell BM, Foster S, Gumpel JM, Hesp R, Reeve J, Zanelli JM 1985 Bone turnover in early rheumatoid arthritis. 1. Biochemical and kinetic indexes. Ann Rheum Dis. Sep;44(9):575-9. ) is slow, even with a high unprocessed vegetable diet. There are tasty foods that are especially rich in potassium ( http://www.rheumatoidarthritisprogram.com/potassium-and-ra/ ).
    However it is important that thiamin (vitamin B-1) be adequate when supplementing with potassium because heart disease can not materialize when both are deficient, but will show up if only one of those is deficient (http://charles_w.tripod.com/kandthiamin.html ). This is probably the primary reason why heart disease is a main cause of death in rheumatoid arthritis patients.
    In view of the fact that this is not considered by current rheumatologists, it would be very valuable for you to bring it into your future research. It is not only that potassium is not considered by physicians in regard to RA, most of them do not even believe that a potassium deficiency is likely. This even though many of them prescribe what are actually supplements, but prescribed under euphemistic terms such as salt substitutes, sodium free baking powder, ORT salts (oral rehydration therapy for diarrhea), polarizing solutions, GIK (glucose, insulin, potassium) salts, vegetables, or glucosamine. A deficiency is further defined out of existence by defining the blood serum content normal as 4.2 when the actual figure is 4.8.
