Drug-Free Treatment STOPS Arthritis (WOW!)
Two-for-one deals are great when you’re dealing with sales… but they’re not so great when you’re dealing with diseases.
Psoriatic arthritis is like a two-for-one disease.
People afflicted have both psoriasis—a condition in which itchy red patches appear on the skin—and arthritis, which is characterized by typical joint pain, swelling, and stiffness.
It’s a chronic disease, and mainstream medicine provides no cure.
But recent research has revealed a drug-free way to improve psoriatic arthritis symptoms—giving people suffering some much-needed relief.
In addition to the typical symptoms associated with the condition, people with psoriatic arthritis also develop certain metabolic comorbidities, like obesity, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
This is bad news because it reduces your quality of life and increases healthcare costs… while also raising your risk of heart disease and early death.
Fortunately, researchers have identified a way to improve disease activity, function, and markers of metabolic syndrome in people suffering from psoriatic arthritis.
What is this revolutionary treatment?
Weight loss.
Researchers put patients on a very low-calorie diet of just 640 calories per day for 3-4 months, followed by reintroducing an energy-restricted diet.
After six months, people lost an average of 18.6 percent of their body weight… and saw significant improvements in their joints and skin.
Long-term follow-up was just as impressive.
After 12 months, a majority of the patients maintained a weight loss of at least 10 percent.
All disease activity measures were still significantly lower than they were at the start of the study.
Two years later, tests revealed continued improvements in swollen and tender joints, inflammation levels, and other disease activity measures.
Just as importantly, markers of metabolic syndrome were improved as well. After 12 months, glycated hemoglobin, triglyceride levels, and glucose levels were significantly lower, and HDL cholesterol was significantly higher than at the start of the study.
In fact, while more than 75 percent had metabolic syndrome at the start of the study, that number had dropped to 38 percent after one year, and was still at just 60 percent after two.
Medicine doesn’t have to involve medication.
If you’re dealing with psoriatic arthritis, take steps to lose the weight.
It won’t be easy… but it’s a heck of a lot better than living with the pain.
