Relief from the Pain of Fibromyalgia
Natural Supplements Reduce Inflammation
Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain disorder which affects an estimated 10 million people in the U.S. and an estimated 3 to 6 % of the world population. It is most prevalent in women; 75- 90 percent of those with fibromyalgia are women. Diagnosis is generally made between the ages of 20 and 50 years, but the incidences rise with age. By the age of 80, approximately 8% of adults meet the classification of fibromyalgia. The pain of fibromyalgia can migrate to all parts of the body and can vary in intensity. It is often described as stabbing and shooting pain and deep muscular aching, throbbing, and twitching. And numbness, tingling, and burning are often present. Pain and stiffness is often worse in the morning and is aggravated by cold/humid weather, poor sleep, and physical and mental fatigue.
Find relief with natural supplements that reduce inflammation
Many fibromyalgia sufferers are finding pain relief using supplements that contain Glucosamine, Chondroitin, and MSM (methyl-sulfonyl-methane) . Glucosamine is produced within the body and is made from glucose, a sugar found in your blood, and from an amino acid, glutamine. Glucosamine lives inside cells, and in particular, the cells that make up joints and cartilage. The glucosamine found in your body works to keep cartilage healthy. It also acts as a building block for your body to create new cartilage cells.
Chondroitin is also manufactured within your body and is an amino acid found inside joint cartilage. Chondroitin helps to keep joints lubricated by attracting and absorbing water. It also works against inflammation thus reducing pain symptoms. Chondroitin levels declines as a person ages which results in joint stiffness and weakness. MSM is a sulfur based compound that is found naturally in our bodies and in the human diet. It works as a natural anti-inflammatory. MSM is a normal component of vegetables, meat and seafood; it is inert and non toxic. It is believed to inhibit an enzyme called lysosome which is responsible for tissue degeneration, particularly around joints.
 Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM all work naturally within the body to repair and rebuild joint damage, providing safe and effective long-term relief. Whereas over the counter drugs and prescription drugs merely mask the pain, do nothing to repair the problem, and cause a multitude of side effects. There are estimated 16,000 deaths per year as the result of prescription and over the counter anti-inflammatory drugs. Prescription drugs for fibromyalgia come with a whole set of side effects, particularly blood clots, which can cause heart attacks, strokes and other very serious problems.
Clinical studies have shown that 1500 mg. of glucosamine are required to see improvements and at least 500 mg. of chondroitin are needed. Vital Earth Minerals Gluco Matrix exceeds these guidelines with 2000mg. of glucosamine, plus 600 mg. of chondroitin, and 500mg of MSM
