Is it too late? NO. No it is not too late. Often RA will go into remission. With the help of new treatments and medications, the discomfort of rheumatoid arthritis can be managed if not reversed to varying degrees.

Rheumatoid Arthritis can hit hard and hit fast. By the time some people get a diagnosis of RA, they have become disabled almost overnight. This is because often the stiffness and aches go unnoticed as symptoms and dismissed with the weather or too much exercise.

Did you know Cetyl Myristoleate combined with Glucosamine, Methyl Sulfonylmethane EFA and DHA can effect and relieve stiffness and range of motion 97% of the time? It is true.

Two double blind studies were published in the Journal of Rheumatology showing "Topical treatment with cetylated fatty acids significantly increased physical performance (e.g., balance, stair climbing ability, ability to rise from a chair, and walking) in patients with knee OA. A unique finding was an immediate effect of this treatment 30 min after initial cream application. The results of this study provide support for the use of cetylated fatty acids as part of a pain relief treatment in patients with knee OA."1

And the other, a study of Cetyl Myristoleate in a pill form, concluded: "Compared to placebo, CFA provides an improvement in knee range of motion and overall function in patients with OA of the knee. CFA may be an alternative to the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for the treatment of OA." (italic added)2

What was the focus of these studies? Nikken's Bio-Directed Joint and Bio-directed CM Complex Skin Cream.

Because of it's anti-inflammatory properties, these studies are important for Rheumatoid Arthritis as well. As a matter of fact, this combination glucosamine, methyl sulfonylemthane, cetyl myristoleate (CM) and essential fatty acids, has been seen to be effective for osteoarthritis (OA), juvenile arthritis (JA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Degenerative Joints Disease, in fact all the arthritis-es, and sore muscles, ligaments, tendons, bursitis, fibromyalgia, cartilage, as well. Even chronic back pain suffers have found relieve with it.

For your own good, I suggest you do a Google search on CM Complex and Cetyl Myristoleate and learn about it yourself.

Is it too late? NO. No it is not too late. Often RA will go into remission. With the help of new treatments and medications, the discomfort of rheumatoid arthritis can be managed if not reversed to varying degrees. The reality is, that it can come back and rear it's ugly head at any time and for any reason, so be prepared, stay informed.
