In conventional medicine osteoarthritis is incurable. With targeted holistic measures from naturopathy, arthrosis can be influenced in many cases extremely positively! You just have to know how.

In this blog post, we'll tell you what you can do specifically to relieve your pain in the long term and improve your mobility in the long term.

Did you know that, alongside migraines, cardiovascular diseases and depression, arthrosis is one of THE top ten diseases that cost people the most healthy lifetime?

The conventional therapy for arthrosis consists of purely symptomatic medication such as painkillers or anti-inflammatory drugs, all of which can have severe side effects and significantly throw the body further out of balance.

Diagnosis of arthrosis, what happens in the body?

First of all, osteoarthritis is not a wear and tear that inevitably comes with aging.

Arthrosis is more of a diet-related and lifestyle-dependent disease of civilization as a result of years of nutrient-poor and acid-forming diet and lifestyle.

In arthrosis, the cartilage layer of one or more joints becomes thinner and thinner. Cartilage is the protective and elastic layer that lies on either side of the ends of bones. A healthy layer of cartilage enables smooth movement and acts as a shock absorber in the event of sudden and hard movements.

If the cartilage continues to disintegrate as arthrosis progresses, then the two bone ends rub against each other unprotected. As a result, pathological changes and hardening occur in the bone tissue. Movements are becoming more and more restricted and are ultimately only possible with pain.

Arthrosis can be accompanied by painful swelling and inflammation, but it also often occurs without any inflammatory processes. Arthroses are particularly common in knee and hip joints, as well as in hand and finger joints, but can affect all other joints as well.

How can you positively influence your joint health?

As already mentioned, arthrosis is a diet-related and lifestyle-dependent disease of civilization as a result of years of a nutrient-poor and acid-forming diet and lifestyle.

So the solution here is obvious: Take responsibility for your own health and do something for yourself in the long term instead of always just fighting the symptoms.

1. Make sure you have a alkaline excess, varied diet with lots of fresh vegetables, salads and fruit.
2. Reduce your meat consumption to 1-2 times a week.
3. Release your overweight.
4. Take good care of yourself in the form of stress management.

Because ALL THAT influences the health of your articular cartilage in the long term!

However, many of these measures require time and a little patience.

So what can you do right now without much effort to relieve pain and inhibit inflammation?

We recommend our joint complex (MSM plus sulphur) or our pure MSM from HS Activa.

Our joint complex contains pure MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), an organic sulfur compound that supplies the body with valuable natural sulphur.

MSM relieves pain in arthrosis and leads to significantly improved mobility. In contrast to conventional rheumatism drugs, it has no side effects. In addition to a pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effect, MSM seems to directly intervene in the cartilage metabolism.

Sulphur is an important component of synovial fluid and also the inner layer of the joint capsules. Both have to be renewed by the body on its own due to the permanent stress on the joints.

In 1995, a study was published showing that the sulphur concentration in osteoarthritis-damaged cartilage is only 1/3 of the sulfur concentration in healthy cartilaget.

Another study from 2007 impressed with the result that MSM can inhibit the formation of pro-inflammatory messenger substances and cartilage-degrading enzymes.

Our joint complex is enriched with inorganic sulphur, which together with MSM has a positive effect on the gastrointestinal tract. Inflammation is often associated with poor gut health.
