Natural Supplements For A Healthier Life

One of the leading causes of pain and discomfort to those over the age of 50 is inflammation of the joints. Reducing this affliction will reduce pain and also promote greater mobility. Improved mobility has an immense impact on improving lifestyle.

Three of the ingredients that work on inflammation are Glucosamine, Omega-3 fatty acids and the French Maritime Pine Bark extract called Pycnogenol.

Glucosomine is a natural chemical found in the body that maintains healthy cartilage. Unfortunately, Glucosomine levels drop as we get older. Omega-3 Fatty Acids are found in fish oil and other similar products, and they reduce stiffness in joints caused by rheumatoid arthritis. Pycnogenol is a powerful anti-inflammatory, it is also an antioxidant and is believed to manage cholesterol and blood glucose levels.

But do these therapies really work? Arborvitae is an Australian natural health company that has been using Pycnogenol in its formulations. They say their product is backed by over 300 clinical trials and studies, but more importantly they have a raft of testimonials from real people such as former Australian cricketer Mike Whitney. This is what he had to say less than five months into a program of taking the Arborvitae formulation, “I have had pain in my right shoulder, left elbow, both knees and lower back from my cricket career. The shoulder and elbow pain have gone and there is less pain in my back and swelling in my knees. The results have been very positive.” Mike Whitney has been taking Arborvitae Arthritis Pain Relief and Health Supplement.
