PARTICIPICTION Get a Grip on Arthritis with Devil’s Claw by Lorna VanderHaeghe rthritis is one of the most painful debilitating diseases which unfortunately will af- feet many of us during our lifetime. Of those 65 and over, 45% will be stricken with this disease. Women are affected more than men. For those afflicted, the slightest pressure on inflamed joints sends pain shooting through their bodies and for most, their only relief comes from a variety of anti-arthritic drugs or over-the-counter medications. Although this approach does provide pain telief, it does litele to eliminate or alter the arthritic process. Prescription drugs can, at their best, serve only to temporarily relieve symptoms. Prolonged use will always damage our body's biological milieu. This knowledge and the fear of long term side effects has spawn- ed the search for safe and effective alternatives. Let’s look at one of these. European researchers discovered Devil's Chaw Root in Namibia, che former Sourch West Africa, at the beginning of this century. It was used as a tolk remedy for the aged uncil it was proven as a therapeutic agent in treating ar- thritis. Controlled clinical research in Europe compared the efficacy of a standard anti- arthritic drug, phenylbutazone, with that of Devil’s Claw Rooe 410. The results revealed Devil's Claw Root 410 to be more effective in reducing pain and inflammation and produc- ed no unpleasant side effects. Ir has much greater efficacy than just merely ground devil’s claw power. One unexpected benefit was the relief of constipation. The researchers chose Devil's Claw Roor 410 by Dr. Dunner of Switzerland for ies standar- dized potency. Those who follow the Devil’s Claw Root regime tind a reduction in pain and swelling within the first creatmend and are also impressed to discover their cholesterol and blood sugar levels have normalized. The anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic preperties of Devil's Claw Root are generally observed ina few weeks. A remedial course of 3 tablets per day over 3 weeks is recommend: ed. The course may need to be repeated depen- ding on the severity of your arthritis. Devil's Claw Root 410 is available at your local Health Food Store. Ensure the formula you purchase is Dr Dunner's Devil's Claw Root 410 as clinical research confirms its effectivenss. Dr. Dunner Devil's Claw Rout 410 in tablec form provides a standardized aqueous dried extract supplying 410 and containing no sugar, starch, artificial color or preservatives. Devil's Claw Roar 410 is safe for diabetics and children. To find our the full fascinating story of Devil's Claw Root, you may want to read Rachel Carston's enlightening book Deed's Claw Root and other natural remedies for Arthritis. It, too, should be available at your local health food store or can be ordered from live books. Arthritis does not just develop overnight. The underlying causes are to be found in the degenerative changes brought about by faulty nutritional habits. The human body has marvelous regenerative abilities but ic needs the proper fuel to do its work. A dietary change, eliminating sugar, white flour, caffeine and atcohol, and reducing red meat and dairy products, is an excellent adjunct to your Devil's Claw therapy. There is growing research which demonstrates che relationship berween food allergies and arthritis. Elimination diets or Hood tests cin determine food hyper- sensitivities. Approximately 10% of arthritics find their symproms are relieved when they eliminate food from the nightshade family ie. Pepper, tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, paprika, und tobacco. Stress, an important erigger in ar- thritic flare-ups, can be controlled by sup- plementation with vitamin C and a B complex especially vitamin B, and pantothenic acid and daily doses of fresh pressed flax seed oi! along with Devil's Claw Root. & Stiffine Scientific research has proven that Devil's Claw 410 can alleviate and in many cases completely eliminate joint swelling, aching, and stiffness.
