Tip 1: Make Sure You Really Have
Osteoarthritis
While to some of you, today's tip might be
very basic. It is absolutely essential that you make sure your
diagnosis is correct before you begin wasting money on
treatments that are not designed to help your specific
situation.
Tip 2: Searching For Just Arthritis Pain
Relief? You Shouldn't!
Doctors are very quick to address your
joint pain with what has become a "standard" response. Normally,
they tell you to take NSAIDS like Aspirin, Advil, Motrin,
Ibuprofen, and Acetaminophen, or prescribe COX-2 inhibitors such
as Vioxx and Celebrex.
Tip 3: Keeping Your Weight in Balance is
Key To Taking Control of Your Osteoarthritis!
If your osteoarthritis is affecting your
load-bearing joints, keeping your weight within normal ranges is
important. Load-bearing joints of course refers to any portion
of your body that would be affected by excessive weight. Hips,
knees, feet and spine are all load-bearing joints.

Tip 5: Fighting Arthritis Through Proper
Exercise!
As best you can, try to keep painful joint
areas in motion, even in a limited manner. Exercise is good for
joints affected by osteoarthritis. Even if you don't think you
can exercise, you can. Even the lightest exercise can go along
way to maintaining joint mobility and health. A good exercise
routine is key to beating arthritis.
Tip 6: The Treatments: NSAIDs, Cox-II
Inhibitors, Surgery, &
Glucosamine
The latest arthritis research has shown
that there are some very effective alternatives that have no
side effects, are completely safe, ease the pain and tend to the
disease. This supplement is
Glucosamine.
Recently,
Glucosamine has been making a lot of headlines.
Glucosamine is an over-the-counter dietary supplement that
has been shown to be effective in the treatment of
osteoarthritis and joint pain.
Glucosamine stimulates the production of glycosaminoglycans
(GAG's), the important proteins found in cartilage plus
proteoglycans, the water holding molecules that make up the
cartilage.

Tip 7: How to Evaluate a
Glucosamine Product
Glucosamine compounds have opened up an entirely new avenue
for all of you who suffer from osteoarthritis. There is nothing
new about the use of Glucosamine as a way of easing an arthritic
condition. For many years it has been used in Asia and Europe
before the English speaking medical community caught on.
However, you have to be very, very careful when selecting
Glucosamine products.
Your selection should be based on four
factors.
You must consider the quality of
Glucosamine, method of delivery to body, additional
ingredients in the product, and of course, price.
Simply put, the higher quality of
Glucosamine you use, the greater your relief will be. Many
companies use medium grade Glucosamine so you must be careful to
look for the highest quality. You need to look for
pharmaceutical quality Glucosamine if you want the fastest and
fullest relief and healing.
Secondly, the method of delivery can make
the difference between no pain relief and your personally
desired pain relief. Most products produced after the
breakthrough news of the 1999 Lancet medical journal
Glucosamine study, were rushed to the market. In this haste,
these companies did not take any time to do tests on their
product. They simply assumed pill form would be the most
effective. The latest research however, has shown that
Glucosamine in liquid form is much more effective. In selecting
a Glucosamine product, you should look for one that is liquid
form.

Also, crucial to the effectiveness of the
product, is the other ingredients that are included in the
product.
Glucosamine alone is not a cure all. There simply is no cure
for arthritis. To receive true help in an arthritic state, you
need to look for products that combine a number of arthritis
fighting ingredients. You should look for a product that besides
Glucosamine Sulfate and Glucosamine HCL, it also contains
arthritis-fighting ingredients such as chondroitin, boswellin,
bromelain, omega 3 & 6, yucca, manganese ascorbate, and vitamins
A, C, and E.
When considering price, you must take care
to determine exactly how much supply you are purchasing. Many
companies engage in what can only be called a "deceptive"
practice. They often will include 60 pills, or 32 oz. of the
product, but they don't make it clear that you have to take 6
pills or 4 oz. a day. You think you have purchased a month
supply when often you will run out in less than 2 weeks. A good
price for a quality liquid Glucosamine product with many of the
above ingredients synergistically combined is around $30.
My recommendation for
Glucosamine products is
Syn-flex®, a 98% pure liquid formula that combines all the
ingredients that are essential for pain relief and joint
healing.
