The severe pain you experience with arthritis may lead you to take prescription drugs, but when you look at the long-term cost, healthwise, surely you might be forced to reconsider.

The pain redness, swelling are all symptoms of an underlying dis-ease state, they are not the disease itself, so suppressing the symptoms is by no means treating the dis-ease .

The prescription drugs may offer you pain relief, may even reduce the inflammation, but this is done in a suppressive manner, not in a curative one.You are given a drug for the pain, a drug for the inflammation, a drug to help you sleep, and you may already be taking drugs for some other ailment, your poor body has been given an overload of chemicals to detoxify.

So what is the outcome of all of this suppression? All you can be certain of is that a cure will not come from all of this medication, quite the contrary, you are more likely to end up far worse than when you first presented with your symptoms.

Why do we accept a disease state as permanent? Our cells are replacing themselves constantly, and they will continue to do this until the day we die. All these cells need is to be given the correct fuel ( food) to function properly, surely it would be far easier to choose this option than to spend the rest of your life in a debiliated condition swallowing pills which fail to do anything for you other than make you worse.
