new testimonials

"The first week I started the regime the change was amazing. My energy returned, my skin glowed, the aches and pains and heat (inflammation) in my joints went away (almost all), the gastric reflux stopped. People commented on the change in me. I was amazed at how different and positive I felt. So thank you so much." Susie, Plymouth

"I can't speak highly enough of that man, he changed my life". Doreen, Worcester 

 

Arthritis 

Our joints are perfectly designed to give us excellent service and support throughout our life. Therefore, regardless of the type, whether osteo or rheumatoid, arthritis manifests itself when our joints in particular and our body in general are abused and thus leads to inflammation.

Abuse may be physical from wearing the wrong footwear as babies, young children and adults, to lifestyle and occupation decisions that lead to injury and subsequently arthritis, or general abuse such as food allergy/intolerance, pathogenic organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungus/Candida and parasites), toxins such as metals (arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury etc), chemicals (pesticides, herbicides, preservatives etc), radiation (DECT phones, mobiles and masts, air travel etc), drugs such as NSAIDs (ironically the very ones used to tackle the pain of arthritis) and not forgetting malabsorption of essential nutrients such as amino acids, vitamins, minerals and especially fatty acids of EPA and DHA. All of this will release inflammatory chemicals within the body, creating an environment for deterioration of our joints.

Treatment is to address the causative factors and to supply the essential tools for proper healing which include amino acids, vitamins, minerals and especially the omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, as well as probiotics, soluble and insoluble fibre from fruits, vegetables and whole grains, not forgetting adequate amounts of water, a regular daily exercise regime and sunlight, when possible.
Muscles also play an important role in protecting our joints and this is where exercise, especially resistance exercise, is essential in both the prevention and treatment of arthritis. Ironically, it appears that exercising through the initial pain not only helps restore the joints but also serves to reduce the pain!
