Default Just wonderful: Arthritis

I avoid doctors, but I asked a physical therapist yesterday about my knee and she said if it flared up after exercising heavily for a week, it sounds like arthritis. I took my dad to the internal med doc this morning and when I was there I asked him and he said probably arthritis.

Arthritis simply means inflammation of a joint and its a basket case diagnosis.. something a doc will put on an ICD form when he knows not the cause but still wants to get paid. There are many causes. Each person must seek out the cause in their individual case to find the cure. Misalignments are a well known causes amongsts chriopractors and traditional osteopaths, and of course physical therapist... as well as massage therapists.

Go to a medical doctor and you will get a drug to take for the rest of your life. Go elsewhere and you may find your cause and cure.

I will not even entertain an MD for a condition like this. A chriopractor; yes. Fine so far as long as I do noty do the treadmill.

I'm in my late 50's, and I JUST noticed some discomfort in my knees after a treadmill workout. I have to mention that I wasn't really exercising on a regular basis until around a year ago. I try to consider my age, my past activity, and just feel good to continue my Omega 3's, glucosamine, msm, magnesium, etc. I have heard many kids in their 20's complain of soreness after exercise, it's very normal in my opinion. I don't consider it 'arthritis' yet, just expected reaction to exercise or overuse.

I have arthritis in both knees....I never need a weather man to tell me when it's going to rain.
My knees tell me first at least 2 days in advance.
However, as long as I eat my ultra hot cayenne pepper powder daily, I experience NO pain.

It must be osteo and it is in the left knee. Not bad now and hopefully it will not be this yr. Off to the gym in a few for a stair machine work out. Just took 120000 IU of serrapeptase also.

Oh good. Please let me beat this dead horse.

Quote:
Anyway, both fibrinogen and thrombin are produced by the liver (via a complex cascade of reactions), and together they are vital to a number of your body�s daily functions. Namely, they help your blood to clot and various of your tissues to remain intact. Obviously, if your blood doesn�t clot you�ll bleed to death from even the tiniest of scratches, and if your tissues don�t remain intact neither will you. So fibrinogen + thrombin (= fibrin) is great. But again, only in the right amount.

When your liver isn�t happy (from processing too many toxins or fats, for example), it can start producing way more fibrin than you need, and you can start getting clots inside your arteries and/or stiff tissues, leading to heart attack and/or stroke, arthritis and/or rheumatism. Not fun. But depressingly common.

So now maybe we have a little better understanding of the importance of natto in our daily meals? Nattokinase � the key component in natto � is the strongest fibrinolytic enzyme out there. In acute situations (like right after a heart-attack), nattokinase seems to break fibrin apart at least as effectively as the enzymes used in any of the drugs currently prescribed by western doctors. (I�d probably get shot for writing that natto actually works better than those drugs � all I�m saying is that the enzyme nattokinase works more effectively than the enzymes those drugs employ � urokinase, originally isolated from human urine, for example).

Cayenne Pepper is a super effective clot buster, and thins the blood much like Nattokinase. I keep it around in case anyone has a heart attack, as it will break up clots quickly.

Often, Arthritis is caused by a pathogen of one kind or another. By breaking up fibrin and biofilm, you may make the pathogen easier for the immune system to kill.

Poorly constructed shoes, or improperly sized shoes, are often the culprit in knee problems which develop as we age. A sturdy shoe which provides proper support, not only in the sole but on the sides of the shoe, can make a wonderful difference. If our feet are not aligned properly, there is a domino effect which eventually causes problems with ankles, knees, hips and lower back.

Our feet change size and shape as we age. It is a good idea to have one's foot measured every couple of years, when buying new shoes. Gaining and losing weight also affect shoe size.

By the way, arnica cream/gel rubbed into your knee should be helpful. A combination of oral arnica tablets and topical use of the cream or gel will produce the best results. Arnica does a wonderful job of reducing inflammation.

Eliminating nightshade veggies (tomatoes, eggplant, peppers) has reportedly helped with joint problems.

Foods can trigger rheumatoid arthritis. (I've had rheumatoid all of my life. Certain vegetables and fruits are poison for me--make me very sick.) In this situation, for Saved 1986, foods would not be a trigger factor. If his knee problem is arthritis, it is not rheumatoid. Personally, I don't think it is arthritis, but I think osteo arthritis could develop if the cause is not corrected.

Thousands of people have been able to easily reverse arthritis pain and disease conditions by eliminating the consumption of animal products. It usually takes about a week to notice a big difference. The vegan diet has proven to be a very effective way to combat the disease and get off medication.

Although not vegan, I had been a non-meat eater for several years, when I was diagnosed with rheumatoid. After fourteen years of no meat, I resumed eating meat. People told me my body would go nuts from going back to meat eating. I noticed no problem from the dietary change. My digestive system did not react, nor did my arthritis. However, my energy level did increase.
