Osteoarthritis afflicts countless millions of people worldwide, including more than 50 million Americans:
About 30% of those between 45 and 64
and about 63% to 85% of those under the age of 65.
Men are more likely to suffer from osteoarthritis that are women up to the age of 45, perhaps because men tend to engage in more strenous physical activities. From age 45 to 55, however, men and women begin to sufer equally. while women are more likely to be victims after the age of 55. Not only is osteoarethritis more frequent in women age 55 or older, it is more severe. Millions of women of all ages have osteoarthritis and are affected twice as often as men.
A new approach emerges:
- Instead of simply dulling the pain with drugs or preforming expensive and potentially dangerous surgery, many doctors in Europe and Asis (as well as a small but rapidly growing group in the United States) are actually curing the symptoms of osteoarthritis. They've had excellent results with approaches based on a combination of natural suplements that have been shown to slow and eventually eliminate the disease in many patients.
- Our approach includes a combination of two nutritional supplements called glucosamine (glue-cose-a-mine) and chondroitin (con-droy-tin) sulfates. Both glucosamine and chondroitin are available without a prescription in America.
- Since they are substances we already consume and produce in very small quanities in our bodies, glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates have no known significant side effects. This amazing fact stands in stark contrast to painkillers such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatories and cortisone injections, which can wreak havoc on your body.
- Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates "jump-start" the production to these key elements of the cartilage matrix and tehn protect them. They can actually help your body repair damaged or eroded cartilage. In other words, glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates strengthen your body's natural repair mechanisms. They can replace what your body fails to make.
