If you know this all to well, you are probably one of the 46 million Americans (that芒鈧劉s 1 out of every 5 people) that are living with arthritis every day. To better understand how to get relief from this debilitating disease we need to dive deeper into its root cause. What is Arthritis? Arthritis actually means joint (arthr) inflammation (itis). Arthritis can be used to define a group of more than 100 rheumatic diseases and other conditions that can cause pain, stiffness and swelling in the joints or any part of your body. Additionally, it can damage the joint cartilage which can lead to joint weakness, instability and visible deformities that can interfere and, in severe cases, limit a person芒鈧劉s ability to perform most basic daily tasks such as walking, climbing stairs, using a computer keyboard, washing dishes or brushing your teeth. Arthritis can affect anyone regardless of age and most commonly affects joints in the knees, hips, hands and spine. If left undiagnosed and not treated properly, arthritis can cause irreversible damage to the joints, bones, organs, and skin. Not to mention dramatically impair your quality of life. Some of the types of arthritis which are associated with - rheumatoid arthritis - gout - tendonitis - bursitis - polymyalgia rheumatica Arthritis-related conditions primarily affect the muscles and the bones but it is also considered to be systemic, affecting the whole body. Arthritis can cause damage to any bodily organ or system, including the lungs, kidneys, blood vessels, skin and even the heart. The Arthritis Foundation sites two independent studies (Brigham and Women芒鈧劉s Hospital in Boston and at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota) both of which prove that the widespread inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis is linked to heart disease and an increased risk of early death. No one really knows the exact cause of arthritis but there are certain risk factors to keep in mind: Genetics - likely to contribute to risk but no one knows how much. Age - the older you are the more at risk you become. Weight - maintaining a healthy weight will ease the load on the joints. Previous Injury - major injuries are likely to contribute to risk. Occupational Hazards - repetitive, high demand jobs increase risk. Certain Sports - high level, high demand sports can contribute to arthritis (however, general exercise is always a plus) Illness or infection- an infection in the joint or gout can lead to arthritis. What we do know is that when you have arthritis your immune system goes into over-drive and causes the joints to swell and become inflamed. Therefore, treating the inflammation becomes key in managing the pain and discomfort associated with this condition. Sadly enough, the Arthritis Foundation reports that half of those Americans with arthritis don芒鈧劉t believe anything can be done to help ease their pain. You may be in that situation yourself, having thrown your hands up in frustration and simply decided to live with your pain. The good news is that by reducing the inflammation you can significantly ease the painful symptoms associated with arthritis. Here are a few ways to reduce your inflammation: Exercise - less weight equals less stress on joints Diet - Eat plenty of vegetables, fruits and whole-grain products; limit sugar, salt and fat (especially saturated fat found in animal products) Rest - a good balance between rest and activity is the key to joint health Over-the-counter and prescription medications - while these may provide temporary relief by masking the pain they are not always get to the root of the problem- inflammation. They can also have serious side effects, especially with long-term use. Natural anti-inflammatory supplements - probably the most promising natural approach to reducing inflammation in a long while. We recommend looking for supplements containing systemic enzymes and all-natural herbal ingredients. By taking these simple steps to reducing inflammation you will be well on your way to managing your arthritis pain and it devastating effects on your mind and body. Everyone should strive to achieve a healthy and active lifestyle for optimal health and wellbeing. w5709ae
THE US Coast Guard suspended its Pacific Ocean search for star Chinese sailor Guo Chuan after searchers boarded his drifting yacht and confirmed he was not there but that his lifejacket had been found.

His support team said yesterday that Guo had gone missing after being thrown into the water by high winds on Wednesday.

The 51-year-old was attempting to set a new solo trans-Pacific world record.

Guo “was a professional mariner with a deep passion for sailing,” the Coast Guard’s Captain Robert Hendrickson said in a statement yesterday.

“Our deepest condolences go out not only to his family and friends but also to his racing team and the sailing community.”

Footage released by the Coast Guard showed Guo’s trimaran Qingdao China drifting across the waves hundreds of kilometers west of Hawaii, its red sail emblazoned “Peace and Sport.”

Both a US Navy helicopter crew and a Coast Guard Hercules aircraft overflying the vessel had previously been unable to contact Guo, it said.

In 2013, Guo, 51, became the first Chinese sailor to complete a nonstop solo circumnavigation of the globe and he is by far the country’s biggest sailing star.

He set off from San Francisco on October 18 in an attempt to set a record crossing of the Pacific, but his team lost contact with him on Tuesday.

They alerted US authorities, and searchers from the USS Makin Island amphibious ship reached the Qingdao China yesterday.

“The boat crew confirmed Chuan was not on the vessel although his life ja.
