Flexicose - Liquid Glucosamine, Condroitin and MSM Joint Complex
Are NSAIDs Safe and Effective for Use Long-Term ? |
A common myth is that cheap and readily available drugs like aspirin
or ibuprofen are effective and safe methods of ridding ones self
of arthritis pain forever. While we certainly do not want to imply
that taking over the counter medicines such as aspirin is an overly
unsafe practice, as they will temporarily relieve some of your pain,
bear in mind that there are many potentially serious long term effects
(such as gastric toxicity) of the drugs known as the NSAIDS, which
include aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen1. They can even
cause or accelerate articular damage!2 Even acetaminophen,
while not technically a NSAID, can have very detrimental effects
on the body if taken for long periods of time, in large enough doses
or combined with other drugs such as alcohol. So far, there is no
real convincing data that shows the widely used NSAIDs and recommended
selective COX-2 inhibitors even have a favourable effects on cartilage3.
They
might relieve your pain in the short term, but at what cost to your
joints (or health) in the long term?
Doctors
commonly prescribe over the counter drugs like aspirin to ease arthritis
pain. Aside from vomiting and nausea, long term or large doses of
NSAIDS or acetaminophen can actually cause serious kidney damage,
liver failure, as well as cause damage to the lining of the stomach
or intestines. Members of the research community have a word for
it: toxicity. We have long reached for a bottle
of aspirin when we have minor pain but we should be careful to understand
the long term consequences of what we are putting into our bodies.
On the other hand, there are natural substances (naturally found
in the body) that have been discovered that are effective in dealing
with joint discomfort with far fewer side effects.
Glucosamine
is a natural component of healthy cartilage and over time, it deteriorates
and less is produced by the body. By supplementing with a high quality
liquid glucosamine product such as Flexicose, you can begin to rebuild
the youthful vigor of your joints and help keep the future of your
joints healthy. Give
