Why did I get Arthritis

About 37 million people in America have arthritis of some kind, which is one out of every 7 Americans. Here is some insight into the most studied causes and relatively new and much talked about solution. As we now live longer we have an increasing chance of getting arthritis. The good news is there are now non drug solutions to this ‘quality of life’ robbing condition. If you want to read about a state of the art non – drug solution go to www.cis9.com and review the studies about a remarkable supplement, CMO, that you will take for a short time and receive extremely long term benefits.
• Genetics
Exactly how much heredity or genetics contributes to the cause of arthritis is not well understood. However, there are likely genetic variations that can contribute to the cause of arthritis. Arthritic conditions seem to run in families. Is the cause genetics or lifestyle or a combination of both. Experts disagree but lifestyle is the factor that can be altered, genetics cannot
• Aging Bones and Connective Tissue
Cartilage becomes more brittle with age and has less of a capacity to repair itself. As people grow older they are more likely to develop arthritis. Omega 3 oils and consistent exercise can help to offset the inevitable.
• Weight Challenges
Because joint damage is partly dependent on the load the joint has to support, excess body weight can lead to arthritis. This is especially true of the hips and knees that can be worn quickly in heavier patients. One more reason to exercise and control food intake.
• Previous Joint Injury
Joint damage can cause irregularities in the normal smooth joint surface. Prophylactic CMO (www.bestcmo.com) taken shortly after joint damage has been known to offset any beginning of arthritis.
• Employment Related Joint Aggravation
Workers in some specific occupations seem to have a higher risk of developing arthritis than other jobs. These are primarily high demand jobs such as assembly line workers and heavy construction. Again, CMO taken once a year is a great preventative for these workers.
• Some High-Level Sports
It is difficult to determine how much sports participation contributes to development of arthritis. Certainly, sports participation can lead to joint injury and subsequent arthritis. However, the benefits of activity likely outweigh any risk of arthritis. CMO is routinely taken by some athletes to save their joints from the destruction many athletes experience.
• Illness or Infection
People who experience a joint infection (septic joint), multiple episodes of gout, or other medical conditions, can develop arthritis of the joint. A general detox program will help these people, followed with a course of CMO www.bestcmo.com.

Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM)

What is CAM?
CAM is a group of diverse medical and health care systems, practices, and products that are not presently considered to be part of conventional medicine. Conventional medicine is medicine as practiced by holders of M.D. (medical doctor) or D.O. (doctor of osteopathy) degrees and by their allied health professionals, such as physical therapists, psychologists, and registered nurses. Some health care providers practice both CAM and conventional medicine. While some scientific evidence exists regarding some CAM therapies, for most there are key questions that are yet to be answered through well-designed scientific studies--questions such as whether these therapies are safe and whether they work for the diseases or medical conditions for which they are used.
The list of what is considered to be CAM changes continually, as those therapies that are proven to be safe and effective become adopted into conventional health care and as new approaches to health care emerge.

Are complementary medicine and alternative medicine different from each other?
Yes, they are different.
Complementary medicine is used together with conventional medicine. An example of a complementary therapy is using, to help lessen a patient's discomfort following surgery.
Alternative medicine is used in place of conventional medicine. An example of an alternative therapy is using a special diet to treat cancer instead of undergoing surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy that has been recommended by a conventional doctor.


National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM)

What is NCCAM's role in the field of CAM?
NCCAM is the Federal Government's lead agency for scientific research on CAM. . NCCAM's mission is to explore complementary and alternative healing practices in the context of rigorous science, train CAM researchers, and disseminate authoritative information to the public and professionals.

NEW Vitamin News by Fred Van Liew

Ascorbic acid, or U.S. Pharmaceutical grade vitamin C, simply cannot eliminate scurvy. In contrast, a few naturally grown lemons consumed and the scurvy disappears!
Why? Vitamin C as found in naturally grown whole food lemons and other fruits and vegetables has over 300 co-factors that may be present. These allow the vitamin C to be identified and fully utilized by the body’s own intelligence at the DNA level. (Dr. Szent Györgyi ) The U.S.Pharmaceutical Grade synthetic vitamins and minerals used in most supplements today simply do not have these co factors. Man in his finite thinking, looking to standardize amounts of single nutrients using mg. and mcg on the bottles, has all but eliminated these vital co-factors from the final nutritional product. He has extracted the key nutrient, and left behind all the catalysts and workers that make it perform in the body. Often the nutrient itself may be damaged or contaminated.
The body can and will seek co-factors from within itself to “make” these synthetic or processed, fractionated whole food supplements work. Depending on diet and daily stressors, the body will deplete itself of these cofactors over time until further imbalance occurs. Finally, without any more co-factors from within, much of the perceived positive effect of these synthetic or processed “natural” nutrients cease. With few of Nature’s co-factors present the synthetics simply cannot perform.
This helps explain the hope we get from a bottle of “magic” for a few weeks or months, possibly even a year or slightly more, only to plateau and perhaps crash.
We end up with less energy, tired, exhausted, sometimes with pain, foggy thinking, acid systemically with the return of old symptoms, often more severe than before.
The answer is to seek Synbiotic 100% Organic Whole Food Grown™ support. This natural fermentation process, preceded by Supercritical CO2 extracted concentrates (sometimes up to 800:1) keeps the co-factors that are naturally occurring. Neither the nutrients nor the co factors are damaged. The raw organics have to be sourced from around the world to find those rich in bio-photon life supporting energy, free of chemicals and molds, still rich in natural nutrients. They are protected from damaging x-rays and irradiation during their entire journey to your body. Unlike other fermentation processes, the Synbiotic fermentation perfected by Dr. Paul Yanick allows no mold to grow during or after this process. Today, mold is our enemy and needs to be cleared from the liver and systemically.
During the Synbiotic fermentation process the full spectrum of vitamins, minerals and amino acids are naturally linked or matrixed with carrier proteins. This allows the nutrients with their still present co-factors to be utilized inside the cell immediately, bypassing often compromised digestion. A full, balanced support for the entire body is available on a daily basis, allowing the body to make decisions in its priority based on its own perfect knowledge. Lessening or elimination of many physical challenges is the body’s responsibility. Ours is to provide the resources for the body to perform.
Body response can be immediate. Support vs. stimulation. Clearing vs. congestion. Coherence in body functions rather than confusion. Balance in the body starting within each cell is the result.
The definition of disease (dis-ease) could be imbalance. The definition of wellness could be coherent balance. Read and listen to the wealth of information now found on www.trinisol.com. Print out the well researched articles of Dr. Paul Yanick, who has over 300 published articles and books, and multiple patents, including one of the most popular hearing aids still used today. Listen to an audio interview of Dr. Yanick himself on this subject found on the presentation link of the Trinisol web site
Truth resonates with those seeking it. You will find this information resonates well as you search through the wealth of understanding contained within the pages of www.trinisol.com/mberger . Email: mrb@permahealth.com
