Vitamin and mineral supplements for arthritis treatment
VITAMIN AND MINERAL SUPPLEMENTS FOR ARTHRITIS TREATMENT
Impaired adrenal function is one of the major characteristics of arthritis. It has been shown in clinical research (by Morgan, Wick-son and others) that prolonged deficiency in vitamin C and the two B vitamins, pantothenic acid and B2, can severely damage the adrenals and result in decreased cortisone production. Vitamin C increases the production and utilization of cortisone.
Therefore, biologically oriented doctors advise heavy doses of vitamin C, 1,-500 to 3,000 mg. a day, in the treatment of arthritis. This should be a natural vitamin C, made from rose hips, acerola berries, green peppers, or other natural sources. Natural vitamin C contains, in addition to ascorbic acid, bioflavonoids (vitamin P) — citrin, hesperidin, rutin—which always accompany vitamin C in its natural state, and which make ascorbic acid biologically more effective and potent.
Vitamin Bi2 is also used in the treatment of arthritis with good results. Dosage: 10 to 25 meg. a day.
Another vitamin useful in treating arthritis is vitamin E. Some researchers suggest that scar tissue, which forms around the joints in arthritis, could develop as a result of vitamin E deficiency.2 The usually recommended dosage is 300 to 600 I.U. a day.
Minerals are also considered extremely important in the treatment of arthritis. Disturbances in the body's mineral metabolism are usually indicated in arthritis. Therefore, the restoration of proper mineral balance in the tissues is imperative for an effective and fast recovery.
European clinics use various mineral preparations. For the United States, the mineral supplements most useful and easily obtainable would be kelp and bone meal. Recommended doses are reported to be 10 kelp and 10 bone meal tablets a day. Kelp is especially beneficial for arthritis sufferers. It could be used as salt replacement in the seasoning of salads, soups, and other foods. In Japan, where kelp (seaweed) is used extensively as an important part of the daily diet, arthritis is virtually non-existent.
