Portland, OR -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/10/2014 -- Arthritis affects people of any age, but it is almost always perceived as a condition that the elderly suffers from. The joint cartilage deteriorates over time and this is why the elderly population is most susceptible to the condition. However, it seems that the condition is also prevalent among individuals below 65 years of age .
According to research, 60% of people diagnosed with arthritis are under the age of 65. Many of these sufferers are 40 years old and above but the condition can also manifest earlier when a person suffers from a joint injury.
“Aside from having a joint injury, those who are below 65 years of age are also more susceptible to the condition if they are obese or have family history of arthritis. However, arthritis is not an inevitable part of aging despite the fact that it usually affects the elderly population,” said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O’Sullivan.
Osteoarthritis is an arthritic condition that affects those who are over 40 years old. However, there is an autoimmune condition known as rheumatoid arthritis that can begin affecting individuals who are 20 to 30 years of age.
It can be very difficult and painful for sufferers to deal with arthritis. The condition does not only cause physical limitations to individuals who want to work or do their daily routines, but can also be very painful. This is why many sufferers are using NSAIDs and natural treatment options to relieve pain.
“Natural joint pain relief options such as glucosamine supplements are used by many arthritis patients today. NSAIDs or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are also very popular, but those can be dangerous with long-term use,” added O’Sullivan.
One of the main benefits in using natural supplements is that they are not only believed to relieve pain, but also potentially help to regain joint health. Natural supplements such as glucosamine are often used as an alternative to NSAIDs because many consider them to be safer and equally effective.
It is not just the elderly population, but also those who are forty and above who are relying on herbal supplements to become healthier and if possible regain joint health. Herbal products most recommended by experts are those that do not just contain glucosamine but also other natural ingredients such as MSM, turmeric and chondroitin. These ingredients are thought to work together to relieve pain and potentially repair joint cartilage http://www.amazon.com/VitaBreeze/pages/7603999011
