Leaf of life ArthroAid 250 mg  60 Capsules | 2 oz Bottle Tincture 

Arthritis is a serious public health threat and is the nation’s leading cause of disability. It significantly reduces the quality of life, not only for the individuals with the disease, but Also, for the whole family. The economic burden of arthritis is substantial with medical
and social cost of $128 billion annually. The aging US population and growing prevalence of obesity only exacerbate the problem. Current pharmacological therapies are limited in their efficacy, symptomatic, and frequently toxic.

When pain is present in conjunction with osteoarthritis, allopathic diagnosis therapy often begins with aspirin or another NSAID. However, the potential for adverse reactions to NSAIDs makes the use of acetaminophen safer first choice. Intra-articular glucocorticoids can provide relief to severe pain when there are signs ofinflammatio. The main therapy for osteoarthritis is therapeutic exercise and rehabilitation, including muscle conditioning, use of canes or walkers to relieve pressure, braces, and short-term splinting. Surgery is a last resort.

Most of these studies involve inducing edema, injection of carrageenan or another irritant into the rat's paw. Few studies then compared animals receiving either injectable or oral preparations. This is an accepted method, used in numerous studies, testing the comparative anti-inflammatory properties of various drugs herbs.
