			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">Acupuncture is a very popular way now to treat and diagnose arthritis. However, it is important to note that acupuncture therapy is used to treat arthritis and not diagnosing it. All around the Asian continent, acupuncture has been used for many years to relieve the symptoms of chronic pain, like arthritis. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"> </font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">In 2001 the University of Maryland School of Medicine put acupuncture to the test. They studied 570 osteoarthritis patients, age 50, who had never had acupuncture, surgery, or steroid injections before. This controlled group got regular sessions of acupuncture. At the end of the first week, the acupuncture group all said they all experienced a surge in mobility. By the end of the study, the participants said they had a 40 percent decrease in pain and another 40 percent increase functions on the knees. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"> </font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">The acupuncture therapy involves extremely thin needles that are inserted into a specific point in the skin, known as acu-points. It is believed that the acu-points work as magnets, current of electricity, lasers, and bee stings, which help treat arthritis pain. Acupuncturists also provide herbal treatments and help you make life-styling changes at the end of a session. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"> </font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">Studies have also showed that certain areas designated by acu-points are connected to sensitive bio trigger points that are rich in never endings. Other studies also demonstrate that the tinkering around with those triggers can cause the release of endorphins. This chemical that comes from our body acts and serves as a natural pain killer. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"> </font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">The cost of Acupuncture varies across the</p>
<place w:st="on"><country-region w:st="on">United States</country-region></place>. However, the usual price of the first visit will be around $75 to $150 and the follow up treatments will cost about $35 to $70. Not all health insurances cover acupuncture, but many advocates of acupuncture say that there are long term benefits of this costly therapy, like fewer doctor visits over time and savings on prescribed medications. </font></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">When bone marrow is taken out from a healthy person or a person with the disease then this is known as stem-cell transplant. Stem-Cell transplant could be a cure for arthritis. This is a very promising therapy but it isn’t for everyone. Currently, the only transplants done are with people bone marrow cells from arthritis patients. The bone marrow cells are mostly removed and leaving mainly stem cells or immature bone marrow cells which have the potential to grow, divide, and develop. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"> </font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">While the above process is taking place, the person is then put through a cleansing system in order to eliminate cells in the bone marrow that are in the body. Chemotherapy or radiation treatments will suppress the immune system dramatically and the cleaning is usually achieved through this high dosage. Once this phase is done, the purification phase of the stem cells begins. The purified stem cells from the extraction are inserted back into the body, where with hope will repopulate the marrow with cells that are healthy. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"> </font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">This is a very risky procedure and is only done on people with severe and life threatening arthritis. One risk is that the body’s defense mechanisms are completely wiped out, which means that even a common cold or a harmless and normal virus could lead to a serious infection that could be life threatening. Another risk could be that the transplanted cells won’t repopulate successfully. This means that the immune system could be partially effective or not at all. Due to these risks about 5-15 percent of all stem-cell transplants are fatal. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"> </font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">If you go stem-cell transplant you can expect to be in the hospital for several weeks and even many months. The length of time depends on how your body reacts, the complications that come up, and how fast the stem cells develop into an adequate immune system. </font></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">While reading this article is it important to keep in mind that potassium ramifies through every cell and process in the body and does not have any storage and may have a dangerous dependence on its premise control for nerve impulse transmission. Thus, potassium is a mineral that should be taken with caution and it is best to be consumed through foods and not pill supplements. It is reasonably sage for normal people with good kidney function to consume potassium this way. However, even food consummation of potassium should be taken with care because of the wide range of concentrations. It is best to take our own responsibility for your own intake and consult your physician before starting any new program. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"> </font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">Arthritis could be due to a deficiency in potassium or it might be affected by it. In addition, there might be some malfunction, poison, or infection in the kidneys that is caused by age and degrades our ability to concentrate potassium. This could make it impossible for us to get the desired or needed amount of potassium from our foods from which most procedures to process ultimately removes potassium today. Interestingly, Arthritis patients are characterized to have poor nourishment which includes magnesium which is needed to absorb potassium. It’s suspected that a poison might damage the kidneys in a way that it prevents potassium to be retained. </font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">One way that seems to have great success is commonly used at spas, The Dead Sea water has been known to heal arthritis and shown to be relive pain for nearly three months. This technique has 2 ½ to 10 times as much potassium chloride than sodium chloride and a greater ratio of magnesium chloride by weight. It might also have these results because the ocean contains potassium in about the same concentration as normal blood fluid. </font></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>About 50 years ago DeCoti-March wrote a book to first link potassium to arthritis. In this book he claimed many cases in histories that potassium showed to be beneficial to relieve pain in arthritis patients. He then formed a foundation in England that encouraged people to use potassium supplements in order to bring cell potassium up to normal and has helped about 3500 people. Currently potassium is also connected to other drugs that have given a good response in similar diseases. </p>
<p>Another successful technique was conducted with a raw vegetable diet described by Holbrook in Europe during the 40s. This diet was actually very successful however many people did not find it pleasurable. Eppinger suggested that the success of this diet might have been because of the high potassium that it contained. This diet might have been even more popular if Holbrook would have added cooked vegetables, soups, or to drink the boiled water of the vegetables. These alternatives would have also allowed the same potassium intake as raw vegetables.  Kjeldsen-Kragh wanted to explore why the raw diet worked and he explored the effect of a vegetarian diet. He found that after fasting, in some patients with rheumatoid arthritis, followed by a vegetarian diet had a favorable influence on the disease activity. This phenomenon has not been explained entirely, but fasting should not be prolonged because the muscles that are wasting during arthritis are in danger.  </p>
<p>Anther author of arthritis diets, Jarvis, stresses that honey and vinegar are extremely beneficial because of its low potassium, making it counter productive. The vinegar may be beneficial because if well fed people are having a hard time to metabolize all of the acetate ions or if the acetate is being excreted by the kidneys before it had a chance to begin its entrance to the cells. Also, he suggests that Kombucha a vinegar ferment, can be very helpful for arthritis. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are taking glucosimine and chondroiting together you might feel that you are not getting the results you want. Some times glucosamine and chondroiting may not be enough alone, mainly because your joint pain could be to debilitating. Joint Power Rx could be an excellent solution because this formula includes many added herbal extracts and nutrients that are key in joint health. </p>
<p>A consumer taking Joint Power Rx said that before she took this formula she had limited use of her right shoulder and arm. She was unable to lift her arm above her head or rotate it over towards her back without feeling excruciating pain. Her doctor gave her corizone shots and they did help for about two weeks but then three weeks later she went back for another shot that only lasted two days. Someone at work told her to try Joint Power Rx because he had similar problems and it helped him so she gave it a try. When she started taking Joint Power Rx she felt full function of her right arm within a week and didn’t suffer any pain. </p>
<p>This is definitely a great product to take for those who have extreme swelling and pain. Usually doctors prescribe products like Vioxx and Cortizone which often have negative side effects and limited results. Joint Power Rx is very natural and has given patients between 70 – 80 percent of improvements in a very short time. </p>
<p>Power Joint Rx can be taken on an empty stomach in the morning or after a meal. Some people prefer to take it on an empty stomach because they say they get better results. This product can be taken with or without meals and the option is open because everyone’s body works differently. </p>
