When joints move they need lubrication and our body dispenses natural oils to keep them running smoothly. It is when the natural lubrication in our joints slows down or stops, we get into serious trouble. The tissue inside a joint doesn't know why every bone movement, which was nicely insulated by a lubrication before, now causes small scratches. All the joint tissue knows is that it is under attack, and it responds with inflammation, swelling and pain. Now the situation is getting worse by the minute. The space inside the joints is small, just enough to allow some insulating lubrication. When the inside tissue is being inflamed, it swells and makes any further movement much more painful. Every movement increases the amount of inflammation. As the tissues fight the inflammation by swelling, they actually make the situation worse. A remedy is natural oils supplied from within the body, but here we come across a serious problem in that many people suffer from non saturated fats deficiency. So to arthritis sufferers and also those who don't wish to join their ranks, the best advice is to improve your nutrition. A healthy diet can go a long way to repair the damage already done, but most important it can help you to stop further deterioration. A natural diet containing unsaturated oils can introduce into your joints what they need most - natural lubrication from within. But don't expect instant results, it will take many months before you notice a difference in the way you feel. This healthy diet doesn't come instead of medical treatment you are getting now, but the chances are that it will help to eliminate the need for such treatments in the future.
