Celadrin for Arthritis Sufferers
Celadrin – or cetyl myristoleate
- is one of a number of supplements taken by arthritis
sufferers, but it really came into its own recently
when the government withdrew popular painkillers like
Vioxx from the market due to health concerns. This left
many arthritis suffers with no option but to consider
an operation to relieve their pain. An operation –
or a supplement like Celadrin? Many decided to try the
less invasive option first.
Traditionally, doctors have not been
keen to offer supplements to their patients, but many
are increasingly coming to see that products like Celadrin
may be a suitable alternative for those people who for
some reason cannot - or choose not to - have an operation.
A scientist who was trying to understand
why he couldn’t induce arthritis into mice discovered
Celadrin about a decade ago. It contains a blend of
eight stable fatty acids that can easily penetrate cell
membranes and by providing lubrication to the cell membranes
and decreasing inflammation it supports joint health.
In fact, research has shown that it definitely improves
not only the range of motion in a joint affected by
arthritis, but balance, strength and endurance were
also improved.
Placebo-controlled studies in 2002 showed
that the subjects were able to perform several day-to-day
functions like climbing stairs and even simply walking
that had been painfully difficult before. Some subjects
were even able to return to jogging, an exercise that
had been impossible for some time due to the pain and
stiffness experienced from arthritis.
University bio-chemist Dr. Daniel Gallaher
PhD, prescribes Celadrin for many of his patients and
has had no side-effects reported. The pills may need
to be taken for at least two months before improvement
is noticed, though in some cases this time is considerably
shorter. Some patients have noted a dramatic improvement
within a few days of applying the lotion.
Daniel Hoeffal MD, advises his patients
to take the product scientifically. That is, no more
than one supplement at a time and stick to the instructions
on the bottle. If several supplements are taken at once,
there is no way of determining which was the one responsible
for giving relief.
Celadrin comes in pill form and topical
lotion and is quite affordable compared to some other
supplements, with the pills costing about $12.00 a bottle
and the lotion half that. It is available as a stand-alone
product, or combined with other products such as Glucosamine
Always consult your health care professional
before taking supplements, as some can interfere with
the absorption of other medications, while others may
change how internal organs function, cause blood pressure
or clotting
