Herbal Remedies for arthritis or osteoarthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis which is covered in the rheumatism section is much more severe compared to osteoarthritis.  Osteoarthritis impacts the joints cartilage rather than the bone itself or other organs.  This disease destroys the cartilage until the bones underneath rub together hence causing swelling and pain.

What causes arthritis or osteoarthritis?

The causes of chronic osteoarthritis actually involve the whole body instead of just one system or another.  Some of the factors causing osteoarthritis are:

• Nutrition

• Infection

• Intoxication

• Hormonal imbalances

• Unhealthy lifestyle

Thus for these reasons, adopting a holistic approach to healing is much more likely to produce positive results compared to localized treatments.  Conventional medicine offers no cure therefore making changes to lifestyle provides greater hope of improving this condition.  Adopting natural herbal remedies offers a healthier alternative with less side effects.
