Arthritis Remedies

Bones. In particular ball and socket joints. The best way to avoid it is to live naturally, in harmony with the nature.

The best way to avoid it is to keep your weight down and stay physically active in ways that don’t stress your joints. Walking, biking and swimming are good, for instance, but skiing and tennis can really stress your knee joints. Sometimes you can’t avoid it — you injure your joints along the way playing sports or you inherit a genetic tendency to get the disease. I suspect that there are other factors that can lead to arthritis as well — many women seem to get osteoarthritis about 6 months after the birth of their second child, which suggests that there may be something hormonal that triggers it. There may also be some kind of an infectious agent — perhaps a virus — that triggers arthritis as an autoimmune response. I agree with the previous poster — arthritis does seem to start in one or two joints and then make its way around your body.
