Joint pain should not be accepted as an unavoidable aspect of aging, nor a sign of arthritis.  Instead, joint pain is most often a sign of chronic inflamation or hormonal imbalance.  When the underlying problem is addressed, most find their joint pain and stiffness signigicantly improve, or disappear altogether.

Chronic inflammation can be caused by a diet that’s too high in refined carbohydrates and sugars and too low in essential fatty acids. A high-carb diet promotes prolonged high levels of insulin, which disrupts cellular metabolism and spreads inflammation. Undiagnosed food allergies or sensitivities also contribute to inflammation when those foods are eaten. Many women with chronic inflammation also suffer from digestion problems due to an inflamed digestive tract.  Also stress can release a hormone called Cortisol which can cause inflammation to spread rapidly. 

There’s a lot you can do to relieve your pain, starting with solving the underlying cause. A few simple dietary changes, like reducing refined carbohydrates and sugar, can make a dramatic difference in your joints. We also recommend eating more fruits and vegetables, which contain natural anti-inflammatories.
