Medical Professionals Link Obesity to Arthritis in Children

Portland, OR -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/31/2014 --More children than ever before are struggling with arthritis pain and medical professionals throughout the U.S. place the blame firmly on obesity. Joints contain the natural chemical compounds of glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM to maintain joint health. Many believe that the body’s production of these compounds can be augmented with a glucosamine dietary supplement to relieve pain.

Individuals experience the inflammation, swelling and pain of arthritis when soft connective tissues in the joint deteriorate. Cartilage breaks down and insufficient cushioning exists between bones. The decline can happen as a result of an injury, the effects of aging, an infection or more than 150 diseases and conditions.

Each pound of extra weight is equal to four pounds of additional pressure on joints. Statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicate that childhood arthritis associated with obesity accounts for more than 825,000 trips to emergency rooms and family physicians each year. Complaints range from pain in the feet, hips and knees to the lower back.

An increasing number of physicians and arthritis specialists are recommending a glucosamine supplement to ease arthritis pain and promote joint health. In clinical studies, a dietary supplement of glucosamine sulfate that incorporates turmeric has been found to be highly effective in relieving joint pain and discomfort.

VitaBreeze is one of the premiere providers of glucosamine supplements and one of the elite few that include turmeric in its formula. The dietary supplement offers a 1,500mg formula to help the body relieve inflammation and quell pain that costs just pennies a day.
