Earl Mindell's Arthritis: What You Need to Know

Each year, an estimated 100,000 arthritis sufferers are hospitalized due to side effects caused by commonly prescribed arthritis drugs; an additional 16,000 patients die unnecessarily from similar reactions. In this accessible new guidebook for people recently diagnosed with arthritis, Earl Mindell educates the reader on all the benefits and drawbacks of conventional treatments, and introduces a number of safe, effective, natural remedies.

The book includes a special "arthritis-busting" diet, exercises for pain-free joints, herbal and nutritional supplemental remedies like glucosamine, MSM, curcumin, and ginger extract, and alternative methods for coping with arthritis pain, such as hypnosis and acupuncture.
