Three most common forms of arthritis.
Osteoarthritis, the most common arthritis, distresses about 16 million Americans. The average age of these people is about 45. Even though it has been found in the fingers neck and spine, most of the time the disease centers on the weight bearing areas like the knees, hips and ankles.
Our joints are cushioned by cartilage, a very thick, sponge-like matter. Osteoarthritis damages that cartilage and slowly but surely wears it down. The majority of arthritis pain relief remedies whether they are natural or medicinal are targeted towards osteoarthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of the joints. Rheumatoid arthritis can also cause inflammation of the tissue around the joints, as well as other organs in the body.
Psoriatic Arthritis is not prolific in our culture as the other two forms of arthritis. But just like the other two forms this type can also use an effective arthritis natural remedy. It eats away at the joints and can also show up as psoriasis on the skin.

One thing to remember when following any diet is that the nutrients lost through the elimination of any foods must be replaced by other means. Certain foods or food groups often seem to cause a worsening of arthritis symptoms. In this case, an elimination diet could be helpful. All suspected foods must be completely eliminated from the diet for several weeks, then reinstated one at a time over a period of several days. If the symptoms of pain and inflammation re-occur after each food is eaten again, then it could be a culprit. This should be done at least three times to determine that there were no other factors involved. If an elimination diet is followed, it is wise to keep two diaries. One record of the food eaten and at what times and dates, the other of the dates and times of pain flare-ups. When the two are compared, it will be plain to see what was eaten that could have caused pain.
Fish oil has been claimed to have positive results as an arthritis natural remedy. Some researchers recommend simply adding omega 3's to the diet by eating cold-water fish like mackerel, herring, tuna, salmon, anchovies, bluefish and mullet.
