Joint Problems Revisited

     Problems with joints seems to be a prevailing illness striking all ages. We must ask ourselves; "what is causing such a wide spread illness?"
     I feel it's our food causing the problem. If you go back in history you will find that only the elderly ended up with arthritis.  You might find once in a while someone younger with rheumatoid arthritis but seldom ever osteoarthritis. These days I see people in their teens with osteoarthritis (the wearing away of the joints). They say things like "It's because I ran track or played sports." So did the people of our past play sports and ran track, in fact, they did a lot of other hard work also, they never had any trouble with their joints wearing away.
     Plain and simple, their foods were much better than ours are today. They also boiled bones and cartilage to make soups, giving them the very nutrients to build their bones and joints and keep them strong.
     Nobody seems to have time to make meals from scratch anymore. Everything we eat is premade, pre-done and precooked. They lack nutrients especially minerals. Minerals are extremely important for all aspects of our health, even though they are in micro-units and the body only needs a very small amount. Eliminate even one of these minerals from your diet and you could end up with cancer or other serious ailments.
     As I have stated in the past, our soils are depleted of these much needed minerals. All the foods you buy in the store are immensely depleted of nutrients do to the fact that the plants we eat aren't getting the minerals they need to grow properly. So, farmers use synthetics to make them grow or put in their soil just one or two minerals to make the plants grow big and beautiful. However, they lack the very nutrients needed to sustain our joints, not to mention a whole lot of other processes in our bodies.
     We can change this by buying only organic fruits and vegetables, and in this way more and more farmers will have to meet the demands of the people and change the way they grow crops.
     If you are one of those with joint problems, just remember that it is self induced by your choice of how you eat, what you buy to eat and how you prepare the foods you eat. No one to blame but yourself.
     You can change it by changing the way you eat and what you eat. Remember any thing made from grains is a processed food and will be highly acidic in spite of doctors saying "Eat more whole grains because they are good for you." In reality they are a highly acidic food that can cause joint damage and allergies. Stop eating all grains of any kind and watch the inflammation in your joints go down, not to mention, your allergies will start to bother you less and less. As a society of people we eat way too much in the way of grains and sugar, it seems to be in everything.
     One more thing, natural anti-inflammatory like MSM, bromelain and micro-lactin, just to mention a few, will help with the pain and may stop the continued damage.
