The Most Effective Scientifically Formulated All Natural Treatment Against Arthritic Inflammation, Rheumatic Pain and Joint Degeneration.

Q&A The Facts About Joint Degeneration & Arthritin.

What Causes Arthritis, Joint Inflammation and Degeneration?
Arthritis and joint degeneration are not simply due to "stress" on the locomotor system or wear and tear on the weight bearing joints. Arthritic problems and joint degeneration are exacerbated or caused by 3 major factors:
(1) Overly Aggressive Autoimmune Reactions,
(2) The Neovascularization of Cartilage and
(3) Congenital Malformations.

Factor 1: Autoimmune Reaction
Rheumatoid Arthritis, occuring in animals or humans, is an immune deficiency syndrome or autoimmune reaction where antibodies develop against components of joint tissue, and mistakenly and aggressively attack the joints, destroying cartilage, synovial fluid, bone and joint tissues. Often precipitated by age, stress, poor nutrition, change in diet, or a genetically predisposed biochemistry via recessive autosomal traits, rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory condition that affects your entire body. It usually involves several joints in the onset, typically in a symmetrical fashion (i.e. both hands, both wrists, both hips), causing inflammation, stiffness and immobility; X-ray and MRI findings usually show tissue swelling, erosion of cartilage and the narrowing of the space between joints.

Some reports link the onset of rheumatoid arthritis with increased intestinal permeability to dietary and bacterial antigens as well as alteration in bacterial flora wherein such inappropriate materials enter the blood stream. Antigens found in joint tissue have been known to resemble some of the bacterial antigen populations of the gut, possibly causing a cross-reaction of consequent antibodies (the autoimmune response) at joint sites.

Factor 2: Neovascularization of Cartilage
Over time, imbalances within the biochemistry of your body, due to either an excessive immune response and/or the triggering of specific autosomal recessive traits, may produce inappropriate peptides and cytokines, initiating unwanted neovascularization in nonvascular tissues such as cartilage, as well as the subsequent unleashing of unwanted destructive enzymes which dissolve collagen matrices.

Cytokines are powerful mediating peptides which can wrongly stimulate the neovascularization of cartilage and other nonvascularized surrounding tissue, causing blood vessels to grow into tissues where they shouldn't, while creating cascades of unwanted destructive enzymatic activities. The neovascularization of cartilage leads to its collagen matrix becoming calcified, and subsequently brittle and inflexible. With decreasing resilience, hardened cartilage begins to quickly wear away at any opposing surface. Moreover, misdirected neovascularization leads to displacement of water while decreasing the volume and viscosity of synovial fluid, further lessening the flexibility and cushioning power of the joint, until the surfaces of raw unprotected bone painfully begin to wear against each other, as it happens in conditions of osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritic degenerative joint disease, and congenital joint malformations.

Factor 3: Congenital Malformations
Congenital malformations are basically inborn recessive genetic errors of development which directly affect the integrity of skeletal structure. Thus, cartilage, bones and joints may not be fully developed. Having less physical strength than normally developed joints, an underdeveloped or malformed joint becomes more prone to injury, disease and accelerated wear, increasing the probability of being vulnerable to overly aggressive autoimmune reactions (Factor 1) or the neovascularization of cartilage (Factor 2).

Congenital malformations also involve biochemical errors wherein certain enzymes or other biochemical mediators are not produced, interfering with both growth and maintenance functions of cartilage, bones and joints. Deterioration can be slowed, and sometimes reversed, by supplementing with appropriate nutrients and hormonal cofactors which specifically fill in the missing biochemicals the genome has failed to activate

Can The Cascade Of Joint Degeneration Be Stopped Or Even Reversed?
Yes, it can. Mounting evidence suggests that by sufficiently addressing the 3 factors which precipitate and cause joint degenerative diseases (namely the autoimmune reaction, the neovascularization of cartilage and congenital malformations), much can be eliminated, controlled, or even reversed in some cases. Research documents that from the earliest signs of osteoarthritis to the most advanced stages, bodily cellular and tissue response to osteoarthritis is purposeful and aimed at repair of the damaged joint. Thus, by enhancing the repair process via concentration of the various respective biochemical processes of connective tissue and cartilage formation, osteoarthritis may be arrested and sometimes reversed. Similarly, congential malformations and associated problems can be retarded, resulting in the reduction of immobility and pain, and thereafter, extending the usefulness of the joint.

What is ARTHRITIN?
ARTHRITIN is an all natural and completely safe homeopathic medicinal nutraceutical which is specifically formulated to relieve the pain and discomfort of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatism and related degenerative joint diseases, while also providing the means whereby tissues and joints may be healed and regenerated.

Does ARTHRITIN Address The 3 Major Causes Of Joint Degeneration?
Yes, ARTHRITIN is the only formula scientifically engineered to specifically address all 3 known causes of arthritis and joint degeneration: overly aggressive autoimmune reactions, the neovascularization of cartilage and congenital malformations.

How Does ARTHRITIN Work?
ARTHRITIN combines the power of homeopathic medicines with the nutritional power of nutraceuticals…all in one capsule. The result is what is called a homeopathic nutraceutical, a safe OTC, FDA registered pharmaceutical and nutraceutical combination. ARTHRITIN’s homeopathic fraction provides the “executive” decisions for the body, directing the body to actually initiate the process of healing and growth, whereas each nutraceutical fraction is a strategy which ensures that the essential array of needed raw nutritional materials is provided for the optimal execution of the homeopathic directive. Specifically, ARTHRITIN supplies 5 main types of medicines and nutraceuticals:
1. Anti-Inflammatory Agents
2. Analgesics
3. Glucosaminoglycans: the Nutritional Building Blocks of Joint and Cartilage
4. Hormonal Growth Factors
5. Anti-Angiogenetic Factors which help to prevent and reverse the vascularization of cartilage.

1. Anti-Inflammatory Agents: As is well documented, concerted reduction of inflammation can extend the usefulness of all joints, including congenitally malformed and underdeveloped joints. ARTHRITIN includes a number of homeopathic medicines which specifically relieve the inflammation and swelling caused by joint degeneration and arthritis. ARTHRITIN also contains boswellia serrata and harpagophytum procumbens, both potent phytomedicinals. In animal and human studies comparing the phytomedicinals contained in boswellia serrata (a number of terpenoids including β-boswellic acid and other pentacyclic triterpene acids) with Phenylbutazone (C₁₉H₂₀N₂O₂, an NSAID, a common drug used for its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties especially in the treatment of arthritis, gout and bursitis), boswellia serrata appeared to display significantly more anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic activity, with marked inhibition of secondary lesions, than Phenylbutazone.

Boswellia serrata also lowered total leucocyte counts (an exceptionally important finding given the excessive autoimmune reaction of joint degeneration), improved targeted blood supply to the joints (but specifically not to cartilage or traditionally nonvascularized areas) and restored the integrity of vessels previously damaged, better than did Phenylbutazone. Harpagophytum procumbens, containing harpagoside (C₂₄H₃₀O₁₁) and harpagide (C₁₅H₂₄O₁₀) which are both anti-inflammatory (while the latter alone exhibited analegesic activities), also performed better than the anti-arthritic drug Phenylbutazone.

Other ingredients in ARTHRITIN include dl-methionine, a free form amino acid which acts in concert with tanacetium parthenium to complement your body’s natural ability to reduce autoimmune and overly aggressive t-cell-allergenic activity through mast cell stabilization and integrity (via inhibition of lgE on FceRI-receptors on mast cells which prevents lgE cross-linking, receptor clustering and subsequent degranulation of the mast cell). Dl-methionine acts to suppress unwanted t-cell activity so that the body does not turn against itself and wrongly begin to attack and degenerate joint tissue, while also reducing the free histamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) production within the blood stream, often associated with arthritic complaints and discomfort. Dl-methionine also seeks to reduce dangerous cytokine activity while effectively preserving antioxidant glutathione complexes.

ARTHRITIN also includes omega-3 fatty acids (found in perna canaliculous), and pure gamma linolenic acid (GLA), an essential omega-6 fatty acid (which also reduces inflammation and edema of swollen joints); the latter (GLA) being a natural precursor to all the essential eicosanoids, necessary for growth and regeneration.

WARNING: High levels of homocysteine (hyperhomocysteinemia), a known factor of atherosclerosis in both animal and human studies, may accumulate because of dl-methionine loading. Dl-methoinine should never be administrated without adequate amounts of pyridoxine (B6). For these reasons ARTHRITIN includes pyridoxine (B6) which protects against dl-methionine loading, safely and effectively reducing homocysteine to non-toxic cystathionine β-synthase.

2. Analgesic Agents: ARTHRITIN includes a number of homeopathic medicines which relieve the pain, accompanying fever and discomfort of arthritic injury and inflammation. ARTHRITIN also provides white willow bark (salicis cortex), and yucca which contain a family of safe salicins (which the body makes into salicylic acid). Salicylates share many of the analgesic qualities of aspirin but without the side effects, and without detrimental action on platelet function. Salicylates reduce pain by acting on tissues and associtated sensory nerves, inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins and the actions of neutrophils involved in inflammation. With the specific use of the neurotransmitter dl-phenylalanine (DPLA), ARTHRITIN also complements the body's natural release of, and extends the molecular life of, naturally occuring painkillers (the families of "endorphins," "enkephalins" and "dynorphins") while protecting them from degradive enzymes (specifically inhibiting the activity of enkephalinase) which activity further aids in the reduction of pain and inflammation (by raising the thresholds of pain and blocking the transmission of the pain signal), promoting healthy bone and joint growth while preventing general inflammatory responses. Lastly, capsaicin provides Substance-P so as to reduce the onset of pain at the source of neuro-stimulation and inflammation.

3. Glucosaminoglycans - The Nutritional Building Blocks of the Joints: Glucosaminoglycans have long been known and well documented to be the essential biochemical entities and precursors which are the material foundations of cartilage as revealed in both human and animal studies. These special entities help joints and surrounding tissues to become naturally healed by your body, including the regeneration of cartiliage tissue. The complete glucosamine structures uniquely offered in ARTHRITIN, including the essential family of glucosaminoglycans (GAGS or mucopolysaccharides), are from 3 different sources: naturally occuring in (1) perna canaliculous and (2) 100% pure shark cartilage, as well as (3) pure pharmaceutical grade chondroitin sulfate, n-acetyl glucosamine (NAG) and mixed glucosamine sulfates, all of which are necessary for the maintenance and regeneration of cartilage to take place. The glucosaminoglycans act to stimulate the synthesis of synovial fluid and the complete matrix of cartilage which includes: collagen (providing the tensile strength of cartilage) and proteoglycans (the framework on which collagen builds itself in cartilage). Chondroitin sulfates, the major glucosaminoglycans (GAGS) in cartilage, provide protection by inhibiting degradive enzymes of the collagen structure within cartilage. These normally occuring degradive enzymes are at times inappropriately activated by an abnormal autoimmune response, or in the course of normal maintenance where further cartilage growth is not wanted.

4. Hormonal Growth Factors: ARTHRITIN contains cinnamomum verum (which contains naturally occuring plant growth hormones, the phytosterols: stigmasterol, campesterol and β-sitosterol), and l-ornithine (an essential precursor to human growth hormone), which further accelerate the regenerative process of joint tissue and synovial fluids. Boron, magnesium, and manganese are quintessential minerals which are required in order for calcium to be added to bone, as well as to stop the dangerous calcification of cartilage. OptiZinc (zinc monomethionine) is a proven powerful antioxidant which helps prevent free radical cascading of newly developed tissue. As mentioned earlier, pure gamma linolenic acid (GLA), an essential omega-6 fatty acid, is a natural precursor to all the essential eicosanoids necessary for growth and regeneration.

5. Anti-Angiogenetic Factors: Pure Shark Cartilage - Most importantly, ARTHRITIN provides the 3 known protein mechanisms of anti-angiogenesis contained in 100% pure shark cartilage which promotes the devascularization of cartilage, allowing it to return to its normal nonvascularized state (no blood vessels) while preventing the neovascularization of other joint tissue as well, thus inhibiting the destructive cytokinic mechanisms of Factor 2 - the neovascularization of cartilage. The Chinese phytomedicinal fo-ti is documented to contain leucoanthrocyanidins (LAC) which demonstrate both anti-inflammatory and vasodilatory properties. ARTHRITIN also includes tanacetium parthenium, an anti-inflammatory phytomedicinal, providing sesquiterpene lactones which demonstrate anti-secretory activity. These lactones have been shown to expressly inhibit the release of destructive enzymes in white cells which are within joints at the time of inflammation. Such inhibition is thought to prevent the dangerous cascade of collagen deterioration within the joint's cartilige.

How Long Do We Have To Use ARTHRITIN Before It Works?
Not long at all! ARTHRITIN is fast and effective. Relief of pain, swelling and increased mobility are commonly experienced within 20 minutes of using ARTHRITIN, becoming more powerful over the first few days. Continued use of ARTHRITIN will show increased gains in mobility and, unlike NSAID's (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), continuously relieve pain without side-effects, or the need to increase dosages!
