Supplements for Arthritis Pain Relief

Vitabase Arthritis Pain Relief Supplements

For those who suffer from moderate to severe arthritis pain, even the smallest measure of arthritis pain relief helps to enhance their lives, and many are finding just that with glucosamine and chondroitin. These two ingredients have become popular solutions among arthritis pain sufferers. It's not uncommon to even find glucosamine for dogs. Animals too suffer from arthritis and what works for us often works equally well in dogs and cats. Glucosamine and and Chondroitin can be obtained over the counter, without a prescription and are widely available. If you aren't yet familiar with the benefits of these new arthritis wonder supplements, then read on.

We will cover the basics, along with benefits and drawbacks of using these two ingredients found in many arthritis products. Of course, in the end, it is always best to talk with your doctor before adding any new medication or supplement to your routine, just to be on the safe side.

Glucosamine and chondroitin are already found naturally within the body. Researchers think that glucosamine serves to build, and then repair arthritis damaged cartilage between the body's joints. In arthritis sufferers, this cartilage has worn away, so that in many cases, it is bone against bone inside the joint, leading to painful swelling and inflammation, and eventually, joint replacement. Chondroitin helps to keep joints flexible by lubricating them. Anything that helps to lubricate and stimulate cartilage growth will give pain relief and prevent the stiffness often associated with arthritis. It's the stiffness that leads to limited mobility, and a compromised quality of life. If used together, glucosamine and chondroitin can help fight against the damage being caused by the arthritis, so that normal, daily activities will no longer be so painful.

This gives some arthritis pain relief, because it helps reduce in swelling inside the joint. If you want to stop joint cartilage from weakening and dissolving, you can stop drinking sodas of any kind or power drinks of all kinds. These drinks have been proven to acidify your body's fluids - including those fluids in your joints that help cushion your bones. It only makes sense that you would want to alkalize your body fluids to reverse the acid build-ups.

Water-alkalizing products like O2 Proformance from Nutronix International can work over three to four months to alkalize your body fluids and help you rebuild or strengthen the cartilage you so badly need as a type of shock-absorber for your joints thus greatly helping to give arthritis pain relief

You can also lubricate your joints with hyaluronic acid. Click the link just above to learn more about it.

One of the bigger bonuses that have helped boost the popularity of glucosamine and chondroitin among arthritis sufferers is that the supplements can be found everywhere. You can find them in the vitamin aisle of your local pharmacy, your favorite superstore, and even in many grocery stores. Of course, you do need to use some caution here, and remember that dietary supplements are not federally regulated, meaning that you have to buy supplements made from a well-known, reputable company, to be on the safe side.

In general, no matter what brand of supplement you use, or where you purchase it from, you can expect to pay at least $1.00 per pill, and in some cases, as much as $3.00 each. Very few health insurance policies cover the costs of supplements; not even those that may be prescribed by your physician.

Make certain you carefully read the dosage directions on the bottle, and follow them to the letter, unless advised differently by your physician. Your doctor will be able to tell you the best dosage for you, depending on the type of arthritis you have, the severity of your pain, the other medications you take, etc. Until you can see your doctor, stick with the package directions, don't take more than recommended.

There are a few side effects that you should be aware of, before taking glucosamine and chondroitin supplements. These supplements are not suggested for use by pregnant women, or those who are breastfeeding, as there is little knowledge as to the possible effects on the baby. People who suffer from diabetes should not use this supplement because chondroitin has been known to raise glucose levels. Chondroitin has also been known to also thin the blood, which could cause problems for someone who is on heart medicine, or has issues with their blood clotting properly after an injury or cut.

Children shouldn't be given these supplements, as there have been no studies done on the potential risks. If you suffer from arthritis, glucosamine and chondroitin supplements may help you, but it is best to first talk with your doctor, to determine proper dosage and use in your own individual case.
