Joint pain, swelling, stiffness, and stiffness can drastically alter your life, making it difficult to do the things you love. We tend to conclude that arthritis has set in when we feel pain in our fingers and wrists, knees, hips, or other joints. Although joint pain is a natural reaction to inflammation in our bodies, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you have one of the hundreds of forms of arthritis. Sometimes, your joint pain is a sign that you need to make positive changes in your diet and exercise habits, stress level and body weight, as well as your emotional well-being.
Natural Ways
There are natural ways to improve your mobility and reduce or even eliminate your pain, regardless of whether your joint pain is caused due to hormonal changes, excess acidity, cold and damp climate, arthritis, or any other factor. It is important to identify the source of your joint pain and make positive lifestyle changes. As menopause approaches, hormone changes are a common factor in women’s lives. Heavy physical activity can cause severe or persistent joint injuries.
Age-related changes in collagen matrix repairs mechanisms Activities such as long distance running that is performed over many years. Cold climate and atmospheric pressure fluctuations. Food allergies like wheat and dairy. A diet high in acid, such as nightshade vegetables, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and potatoes. A diet high-in animal products.
Proper Diet
A diet high in animal products may cause nutritional deficiencies such as calcium, magnesium and manganese. Low-grade infections (dental infection) and autoimmune diseases. The body can accumulate toxic substances. Dr. Robert Young’s best-selling book, “The pH Miracle”, states that pain cannot exist without acidity. Acidity cannot exist without pain. To function well, the human body needs a balance between acidity and alkalinity. Americans are more acidic than ever due to stress, increased consumption of sugars, carbs, sugars, red-meat, and sodas.
Acidity can cause inflammation, while alkalinity can reduce it. Inflammation and pain can be caused by an excess of acid in our bodies. This is because we have more calcium, minerals, and acid toxic substances in our bodies. This can lead to joint pain and arthritic conditions. Reduce acidic foods and drink more alkalizing foods and beverages to restore healthy pH levels.
Joint Stiffness
This will help reduce joint stiffness and pain. Lemons, which are alkalizing, can be confused with acidic foods. We tend to think of inflammation as a reaction to injury or over exertion. But that’s only one aspect of inflammation. Chronic systemic inflammation can be a cause of many age-related diseases such as atherosclerosis and cancer, obesity, diabetes. It can also lead to digestive system diseases, arthritis and Alzheimer’s disease. Cytokines regulate inflammatory responses and joint health. Cytokines, a small group of proteins secreted in specific immune system cells, are released into the bloodstream or directly into tissues and act as messengers for the cells.
They regulate the body’s immune system and help maintain normal cellular processes. Cytokines, which are pro-inflammatory, can cause the body to produce too many free radicals, which can lead to a health-threatening cause-and-effect loop. Strong immune systems trigger the inflammatory response to treat injury or infection. Poor dietary choices and stressful lifestyles can lead to low-grade inflammation, which prevents cell repair and regeneration, and eventually tears down your joints. For example, cortisol, which is a hormone that is released in response to stress, can cause inflammation.
Inflammation
A diet high in sugars and refined carbohydrates can also lead to chronic inflammation. Inflammation is the body’s response to toxic substances. Toxic overload can be caused by poor food choices, smoking, alcohol, coffee, pesticides and household cleaning products, allergens and herbicides as well as chemicals in personal care products. To reduce the toxic burden on your body, detoxify, purify, regenerate, and relieve the pain, stiffness, and swelling that comes with inflammation, use a gentle cleanse. The role of inflammation is played by changes in estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. It’s not surprising that women often experience joint pain after menopause and perimenopause.
The body’s estrogen has an anti-inflammatory effect, so fluctuations in estrogen levels during this natural transition can lead to chronic inflammation. Bio-identical progesterone is a natural hormone that can help reduce inflammation. It can balance hormones, support your endocrine system, and ease stress.
Natural Treatment
Natural anti-inflammatory herbs and foods include alfalfa, blackstrap Molasses, celery, cherries and devil’s claw. They also help reduce inflammation and ease pain and stiffness in the joints. You can use them in your food or supplement with capsules and tinctures. Regular exercise can strengthen the muscles and tendons and ligaments around the affected joints. It can also preserve mobility in those joints that are developing osteoarthritis. Regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and being active will help maintain cartilage’s flexibility and mobility. Rest is essential for the body. It is an anti-inflammatory agent that restores and heals it. Get 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night.
