September 3, 2011 Why NSAIDs are Making Your Arthritis Worse By Dr. Mark Stengler When Joe first came to see me, he could barely walk. His pain was deeply etched into every line on his face. Poor Joe was only 55 years old. But for years, he had suffered from arthritis that was only getting more painful and debilitating. He feared he wouldn't be able to walk much longer. Joe's doctors had prescribed painkillers such as NSAIDs and aspirin to ease his agony. But I worried they were making matters worse. When I told Joe these medications could actually cause his joint cartilage to deteriorate faster, he replied, "Great! Why didn't my doctor tell me this?" I've successfully treated hundreds of cases of knee and hip arthritis like Joe's. So I knew exactly what would do the trick. Years of Agonizing Joint Pain Drastically Reduced in Just 2 Days! I immediately started Joe on a 4,000 mg tablet daily of methylsulfonylmethane, or MSM. MSM is a powerful anti-inflammatory and pain reliever derived from a natural plant compound. I also gave Joe a cream containing MSM to rub on his knees whenever they hurt. I called Joe a few days later to check on his pain. When Joe answered the phone, he was ecstatic. He couldn't believe how drastically his pain was reduced—in just 2 days! We talked again after a couple of months. Joe told me his pain was "80% improved" and he was walking more easily. We both felt so good about his progress, I told him he could cut his MSM dosage in half. Joe continued to notice improved pain relief and mobility. That's a dramatic change in just a few months for someone who was hurting so badly and struggling to walk. But that's not all. On top of this wonderful short-term improvement, research shows the MSM Joe is taking is also helping to rebuild his cartilage—instead of eating away at it like painkilling drugs do. This worn-out cartilage is the real reason for Joe's pain and walking difficulty. So by taking MSM, he'll be MUCH less likely to suffer this kind of agonizing joint pain again. What's more, MSM works far faster than any other natural therapy I've seen, including glucosamine, bromelain, turmeric, boswellia, and white willow. And when you're hurting as badly as Joe was, you want relief fast. Click here to learn more...
