ARTHRITIS

Arthritis is a joint disease, in which one or more of the joints in your body becomes inflamed and painful. It can affect people of all ages, though it is most troubling to older people. It varies in severity from mild pains to severe impairment and joint deformity.

A good natural calcium and magnesium supplement may be helpful.

Anti-inflammatory and lymphatic herbs for the treatment of arthritis are cleavers, devil's-claw, and meadowsweet.

Make a decoction by the devil's-claw root in 11/2 pints of water for 10 minutes. Add the aboveground parts of cleavers and meadowsweet, cover, and steep for another 10 minutes. Use 1 ounce of the total combined herbs recommended, and drink up to 3 cups daily.
