Arthritis Zone
Arthritis is a big issue. Look at some introductory facts. Referred to
as the nation’s number one crippling disease and the most common
chronic disease in people over 40, arthritis affects more than 40
million Americans. And this figure is expected to rise to 60 million by
2020, according to the Center for Disease Control.
Arthritis generally afflicts people between the ages of 20 and 50, but
can affect all ages, even infants. The average age of onset is 47 and
about three out of every five people with arthritis are under 65 years
of age.
Arthritic expenditures for just one person due to lost wages, medical
treatment and other related expenses can come to more than $150,000 in
his or her lifetime.
And doctors believe there are over 100 different forms of arthritis,
all sharing one main characteristic: all forms cause joint
inflammation.
What can be done for arthritis relief? Many things. For example, weight
and nutrition are only a couple of factors that play a role in
arthritic pain. And yet shedding even 10 pounds to relieve weight from
knees and finding the right nutritional strategy can help relieve pain
a lot.
