Osteo Arthritis of the Knees and Severe Anxiety

[Guest guest]

Hello,

Does anybody have any suggestions for natural remedies for:

 

1.) Osteo Arthritis of the knees

 

2.) Severe Anxiety/Panic Attacks

 

I do take 5mg of Xanax and Benadryl per day for my panic attacks and

anxiety. I was wondering if anybody knew of a GOOD, natural remedy

that works just as good as Xanax. This anxiety is killing me. I

used to exercise to get it all out, but I cannot exercise like I used

to, because of the arthritis in my knees. I don't know how to swim,

and I am afraid of the water, so swimming is out. Does anybody know

of a good exercise machine arthritis?

 

I do take Glucosamine, Hyaluronic Acid and Chondroitan for my

arthritis, but I was wondering if anybody had any other suggestions

about natural supplements, or a particular exercise machine they use,

to get a good cardio workout, even though they have arthritis in the

knees.

Thank you very much.

Yes, Tamara,

I have had asteo-arthritis symtoms that came on me really quicly. In fact it

was getting worse on a daily basis. I didn't think I could work much longer. I

was scared. I was taking a lot of things -- like you. Then I found out about

Bio-cleanse an ionic foot cleanse. It a detoxing maching that removes toxins

thruogh the feet. I started doing that along with cold laser treatments at my

naturopath doctor and after four months I am noticeably improved. I don't have

many arthritis symptoms at all. My doctor said he was amazed.

 

For the panic attacks. Sure, there are a lot of things you can take but having

had panic attacks a lot of my life, I found out that I just have to get rid of

the things that were affecting my life to the point of having panic attacks.

Sorry to say that included a lot of things and a lot of so called loved ones,

but I am living a happy life without panic attacks. That is not a pleasant

thought, but I am strong now and no longer a door mat and I like it that way.

Take care. Hope that helps.

any type of non weight bearing exercise would be your best bet....riding a

stationary bike would be a good one to try...

A couple of things come to mind.

First in males at least an excess of estrogen

in ratio to testosterone is said to make them more

prone to panic attacks.

 

Second, multi-gram dose of inositol powder

are said to work well. Do a Pubmed search

on the research. I take a heaping tablespoon

(12 to 20 grams) if I feel

like a panic attack is coming on. And I take

a teaspoonful (5 to 10 grams) to prevent them from coming back.

 

And as the arthritis, I'd consider fish oil

capsules, turmeric/curcumin, manganese, MSM,

boswellian acid (this maybe somewhat hard on the GI tract

just like NSAIDs), various flavonoids, certain herbs, and vitamin

D3. Also cut the intake of omega-6 fatty acids

as most persons have an excess in ratio to

omega 3 fatty acids.

 

Niacin and niacinamide may also be good at high

doses though one runs the risk of too much stress

on the liver and cardiac sensitivity/toxicity.

Periodic lab tests could useful in the use of

these two substances/drugs/megavitamins to watch

for problems.

Understand I am only talking about things I've used

or at leasted have considered. My comments should not be seen

as medical advice but rather are written for your

entertainment.

You can get a really good Coral Calcium with all the trace minerals in it. If

you get all minerals your PH will stay at 7 and you will see that panic attacks

will subside. And any arthritis will abate.

 

Do not take any B vitamin singly only comples and only Coral Calcium which has

all minerals....except maybe Iron....get Geritol for that.........It will take

awhile for cells to turn over like 3 to 6 months....but you will be so surprised

at the result.

 

After all haven't we been told we are dust and we will return to dust??

 

Have a great weekend....Veronica

Realizing that there is no " one supplement " or " quick-fix " below are

suggestions for Osteo Arthritis using a whole body approach.

 

Systemic Enzymes (taken in therapeutic dosages)

Digestive Enzymes (20 minutes before every meal)

ArthoPro by Pro Symbiotics

Calcium Orotate (most absorbable form of calcium)

Magnesium Orotate

Fish Oil - make sure that it is a high quality one. I would suggest 2-3

grams daily.

Complete B Complex

Epsom Salt baths - 3 cups per bath (high in magnesium and will help to

relax)

Organic Apple Cider Vinegar - 1-2 tablespoons 2x daily in glass of water

with organic honey.

Goat Whey - helps to replace the organic sodium that the lymph needs.

Everyone should be on a good organic multi-vitamin/mineral complex.

Use healthy oils such as olive oil, coconut oil, hemp oil, flaxseed oil.

Eliminate vegetable oils.

Eliminate sugar, hydrogenated oils, table salt, sodas (all kinds), coffee

and white flour.

 

Castor Oil Packs

Warm organic castor oil in a small pan. Do not boil. Dip several cotton or

wool flannel cloths into the oil and apply each on top of the other to

affected area. Cover first with plastic wrap and then a towel (or you can

omit the plastic wrap and use two towels) Place a heating pad on top of the

pack. Turn the heating pad on and leave it on for about an hour. Castor oil

packs are great.

 

Balance stress with a very healthy diet, clean water consumption, walk

everyday for 30 minutes in sunlight, meditate, do yoga, listen to relaxing

music, pray, read scripture, read a good book. Make sure that you are

getting enough rest at night. Take time for yourself.

 

Lithium Orotate is good for Anxiety and Panic Attacks. However, many people

find that anxiety and panic attacks go away when they change their diet to a

very healthy diet.

panic attacks:

This is how I managed mine- after being worn out after my last child I had

panic attacks.

50 mgs Bcomplex, high strength multivitamin, cal/mag/potassium tab, Vit E

complex 200IU, and LIVER. or/and the eqivilent substitute,( B12 with folic acid

sublingual) it seemed to be the minerals were short , even iron, for me at that

time.

Blood sugar, may be low. Check out thyroid levels I had all of the above, I

cured my self with Adele Davis' help and Williams who wrote on how individual

our chemistry is.

My MD wanted to treat me for '70's term-HOUSE WIFE SYNDROME! Of course by

giving a psychotropic drug....I had worked in two mental hospitals and knew

@# & *% sure I did not need that kind of medication. Balch and Balch books on

perscriptions for natural healing are the up to date books that I recommend

today, to read for your self. NG

Prolotherapy fixed torn cartilage in my knee and I hear that it is helpful in

arthritis. The

injections are into the joints and contain salt or sugar water. The body senses

an injury

after the injections and attempts a `repair' of the area. It might be worth a

try. Do some

research.

 

As for Anxiety... my anxiety and depression was brought on by severe magnesium

deficiency. Once you reach a level of magnesium depletion... it is almost

impossible to

restore orally. I had to have IV's!

Perhaps you have a long term magnesium deficiency like I did, arthritis can

result.

Take this test to help determine if magnesium is your problem.
