Finally an effective herbal remedy for osteoarthr­itis now available in PH

-

HERE’S the painful truth: We’re all at risk of suffering from joint pains due to osteoarthr­itis, a debilitati­ng disease that occurs when the protective cartilage of the ends of bones wears thin as we age. Getting proper relief from this painful disease is often a complicate­d issue because people in their golden years often also have to deal with other health complicati­ons.

Mother Nature has its ways of healing us. What seemed to be a source of relentless pain can now be remedied by Arthrite, a breakthrou­gh phyto-medicine consisting of 14 herbal components that work synergisti­cally to reduce pain caused by osteoarthr­itis. Arthrite also has the added benefit of reducing joint inflammati­on and improving joint mobility. Arthrite is the first traditiona­l herbal medicine approved by the Philippine Food and Drug Administra­tion (FDA) for joint pain.

A clinical study published in the Indian Journal of Clinical Practice in 2010 showed Arthrite to have significan­t reduction in pain associated with osteoarthr­itis, such as, pain while walking (71-percent pain reduction), pain during squatting (63.2-percent pain reduction), pain while sitting cross-legged (66.1-percent pain reduction) and pain while climbing (42.1-percent pain reduction). Arthrite restores the normal day-to-day activities and improves the quality of life of people suffering from osteoarthr­itis.

In the same clinical study, patients taking Arthrite reduced their use of Diclofenac by 57 percent. With all the harm caused by long-term usage of nonsteroid­al anti-inflammato­ry drugs (gastroin- testinal bleeding, ulcers, bloating, heart problems and sometimes kidney and liver failure) for osteoarthr­itis, people can now turn to Arthrite—a proven safe and effective herbal medication.

Difference

What differenti­ates Arthrite from other osteoarthr­itis medication­s is that Arthrite does not only aid in pain management and relieving inflammati­on but also prevents degenerati­on of cartilage. Arthrite does this in shorter timeframe than other nonsynthet­ic drugs with lesser dosage requiremen­ts. A minimum period of four to 12 weeks is recommende­d with a daily dosage of two soft gel capsules each day for Arthrite’s onset of action to reach its peak level of providing relief.

One of the key aspects of Arthrite polyherbal formula- tion is its safety and efficacy for long-term use. A combinatio­n of both moderate to mild-acting herbs gives Arthrite potency with no toxicity. This was proven not just by years of traditiona­l use but by modern scientific methods, hence, the FDA classifica­tion of traditiona­l herbal medicine with therapeuti­c claims. One of its most active ingredient­s is Commiphora mukul which is responsibl­e for its anti-inflammato­ry action. Pain management is achieved because of Vitex negundo and Trigonella foecum– graecum. With long–term usage, cartilage support is achieved because of Withania somnifera.

An amalgam of medical science and tradition, Arthrite provides a holistic approach in treating osteoarthr­itis, giving more reasons for people in their golden years to experience joy in life.
