			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>JOINT INFLAMMATION</strong> is a very painful, with multiple sets of conditions (100), progressively leading to joint damage, deformity and loss of mobility. inflammation and engorgement of the arm and leg joints is characteristic of the disorder. Chronic pain, disability and death are unfortunate results.</p>
<p><span id="more-3471"></span></p>
<p> Joint inflammation problems include:</p>
<ul>
<li>pain</li>
<li>stiffness</li>
<li>damage to joint cartilage (the tough, smooth tissue that covers the ends of the bones, enabling them to glide against one another) and surrounding structures.</li>
</ul>
<p>Below you will find discusson on how <a target="_blank" title="Chinese medicine" href="http://www.traditional-chinese-herbs.com">Chinese medicine</a> for pain and food therapy are employed to bring these conditions back to balance.</p>
<p>  </p>
<p><strong>UNDERSTANDING JOINT INFLAMMATION?</strong></p>
<p>JOINT IMBALANCE doesn&#8217;t happen overnight and once understood, can resolve quicker than you realize. According to Chinese medicine, the primary problem underlying arthritis is <strong>obstruction with painful results</strong>. With varying degrees, there is an exhaustion of both the Liver and Kidneys and insufficiency of the physical energy (qi). The blood has become blocked by external cold or hot-damp or drying imbalancing influences. The condition includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>cold or hot and painful joints</li>
<li>difficulty in flexing and extending the joints</li>
<li>aversion to cold or hot with attraction to the opposite condition</li>
<li>In some cases the limbs and joints will be aching, numb, painful</li>
<li>overall physical body feels heavy.</li>
<li>tongue is pale or the opposite
<p>  </li>
</ul>
<p>There are graduating arthritic conditions where the site of pain and deformity is more intense, with heat or cold predominating, however, the primary appraoch is to get the obstruction to move. This is arrived at by altering the inner environment by opposing the wind-cold/hot-damp/dry and varying any external surroundings aiding the blockage. Additional attention needs to be given to the general emotional state that may indirectly support the blockage.</p>
<p> </p>
<h3><strong>HOW DO WE GET BETTER?</strong></h3>
<p><strong>JOINT INFLAMMATION: FOOD THERAPY  &amp; <a target="_blank" title="CHINESE MEDICINE" href="http://www.traditional-chinese-herbs.com">CHINESE MEDICINE</a></strong></p>
<p>&#8220;We are what we eat.&#8221; The majority of us would concur that a good number of imbalances are caused by what we swallow. We unintentionally produce imbalances by not being conscious of how important this concern is, particularly in the mid to elderly years.If we select foods and supplements which break down our homeostasis then it would benefit us to become very attentive to our constitution and foods which improve equilibrium. Below, you can begin to choose foods that deliver balance for this obstructive condition: </p>
<p><strong>Foods That Benefit &amp; Foods To Avoid</strong></p>
<p><strong>Foods to Counter Joint Pain:</strong> Asparagus, Cabbage (poultice &amp; ingestion), Celery, Cod, Cherry, Chives, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Garlic, Ginger, Goats milk, Grape, Kelp, Oranges, Papaya, Pineapple (Bromelain), Pumpkin Seeds, Royal Jelly, Scallions, Sesame oll, Spelt, Spirulina, Soy products, Strawberry, Sprouts (mung, red clover, radish, mustard, lentil, adzuki, garbanzo, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds), Tumeric, Water melon, Barley products, Wheat grass products, Alfalfa products (tablets, tea), Chlorophyll foods, Almonds (5-6 dy.),</p>
<p> <strong>Foods to Avoid:</strong> Excess meat (some fish is best), Excess protein, Intoxicants (alcohol, coffee, tobacco, marijuana, etc.), refined sugar and other sweets, Oxalic acid foods (rhubarb, cranberry, plum, chard, beet greens, spinach), Solanine foods (Nightshade family veggies: tomato, eggplant, bell pepper, potato, if sensitive), Dairy (cow&#8217;s milk &amp; bi-products), Nuts, Nut butters, oil-rich seeds,</p>
<p> <strong>HERB FORMULAS FOR PAIN</strong>   Formulas are created and rendered, taking into consideration, a person&#8217;s constitution, environment, life energy (qi), lifestyle and emotional status to name a few concerns. Chinese Herbs and <a target="_blank" title="Chinese medicine" href="http://www.traditional-chinese-herbs.com">Chinese medicine</a> focuses on bringing all these areas into balance. The chief focus is to provide a formula that specifically targets the painful site, resolves the underlying imbalance in the body without inciting more physical maladies.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you looking for an <strong><a target="_blank" title="Arthritis Cures" href="http://www.arthritiscuresresource.com">Arthritis Cure</a></strong>? Arthritis means pain and this could be anywhere in the muscles or the bones which the disease affects; the joints especially bear the brunt and are very painful. Cartilage is a dense, living, tissue covering the ends of bones, protecting them from abrasion as the joint bones rub against each other. Cartilage as a living tissue behaves very much like other organs and glands and these cells are termed as chondrocytes. The chondrocytes die, they are replaced with new ones and the life cycle goes on. The primary focus of this article will be to explain arthritis rather then <em>arthritis cures</em>.</p>
<p><span id="more-756"></span></p>
<p>However, over time inflammation can kill more cartilage cells than the body can replace. This is more so if the body is undernourished and lacks the required nutrients to repair or the joint has suffered an injury. Lack of sufficient cartilage, can cause instability, joint weakness, pain and deformity, all of which affect and interrupt regular activities. Generally, arthritis can be treated with physical therapy, medication, and changes to the lifestyle the individual is used to living. Health care providers use joint replacement surgery as their last resort, once they have tried all of the less intrusive interventions, to try and relieve the discomfort.</p>
<p>Arthritis is divided into two main categories, i.e. localized and generalized depending on areas affected; it is further subdivided into sub-categories. The two localized conditions are bursitis and tendonitis; they affect the soft tissues surrounding the bones and joints. It could just be that the localized conditions could manifest themselves in just one of two joints being affected. It could also be that the patient is affected in a more general sense with no arthritis inflammation or signs of swelling. Fibromyalgia, even though it isn&#8217;t associated with joint damage, is a very common form which can be placed under this particular category.</p>
<p>The next condition in the second sub category causes inflammation which affects the whole body. Gout, psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are examples of this condition. Still other generalized situations include polymyositis, involving muscles, systemic lupus erythematosus involving the skin, kidneys and or other organs and vasculitis where any organ is involved.</p>
<p>An individual is capable of having more than just one arthritis type and it includes over one hundred different medical conditions that are known to affect roughly forty six million adults and three hundred thousand children within the United States. As early on as infancy, this condition can begin, even though it is most commonly seen in adults that are over the age of sixty, in the primary form of osteoarthritis. As the American population ages, the number of people suffering with it is increasing.</p>
<p>Arthritis and related illnesses are the cause of major disability in the U.S. and costs over 124 billion dollars a year in medical care and indirect expenses. By taking the time to follow a couple of simple steps, most individuals can help to prevent osteoarthritis: The ability to maintain the appropriate weight and consume fresh vegetables and fruits are a really good source of vitamins D and C. Consumption of calcium is very important, adults must consume about 1000-1500mg calcium every day, exercising daily is a must and one must avoid injuries that may damage the joints.</p>

<p><span id="more-468"></span></p>
<p>  Alternative medicine has long been used for treating different diseases and conditions. Rheumatoid arthritis has been known to affect people for centuries and people have been using alternative medicines to treat it for many years. Overtime some alternative medicines have proven to be unscientific medical practices, while others were highly successful in treating rheumatoid arthritis. </p>
<p>  Alternative medicines not only include the usage of herbs but other techniques that can help to relieve rheumatoid arthritis as well as other health concerns. Many alternative medicine practitioners combine several herbs to effectively ease the painful symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and to reduce the swelling that often comes with it. Acupuncture, massage and chiropractic assistance have also been recommended to help, and you should keep your body in good shape to better cope with rheumatoid arthritis. </p>
<p>  Rheumatoid arthritis is actually caused by an autoimmune disorder where the individual’s autoimmune system attacks the tissues that make up the joints. This causes the joints to be damaged to the extent that the person is debilitated and can lose mobility of the affected areas. The alternative <a target="_blank" title="medicine for rheumatoid arthritis" href="http://www.bestweb-ads.com/1-11483.php">medicine for rheumatoid arthritis</a> cannot actually stop the degeneration of the joints and affected areas but it can relieve pain and ease the symptoms of the disease. </p>
<p>  Willow Bark and Ginger </p>
<p>  Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease that has painful symptoms associated with it including swelling that can be effectively treated by using alternative medicines. Fresh or lightly cooked Ginger is said to have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce the inflammation in the joints affected by rheumatoid arthritis. By using this form of alternative treatment for rheumatoid arthritis many people are able to reduce the swelling that occurs in their joints. Having Ginger daily in some form such as fresh tea, is also useful in reducing the inflammation and swelling. </p>
<p>  Cat’s Claw and Devil’s Claw </p>
<p>  Using these two herbs will also help reduce inflammation, swelling and joint pain that has been caused by the disease.
