Book Synopsis

Since its original publication in 1996, The Arthritis Cure has swept the nation, providing amazing relief for the millions who suffer chronic arthritis pain. By outlining a nine-point program that includes a new effective supplement, ASU, The Arthritis Cure Revised Edition describes a program that can halt, reverse, and possibly even cure degenerative osteoarthritis.

Based on the most recent and cutting-edge medical research, this invaluable resource promises readers:

—The latest research indicating that prescription arthritis drugs are not only expensive but can also be dangerous—they can raise blood pressure and damage the kidneys.

—New studies supporting the use of glucosamine and chondroitin to treat arthritic symptoms.

—Dr. Theodosaki's ratings of the current glucosamine products on the market, including which supplements are worth buying and which supplements are a waste of money.

—An all-new and improved exercise program for people with arthritis.

—The latest information on related conditions such as fibrmyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis.
