Dr. Scott’s Plan for REVERSING Arthritis

The pain and discomfort of arthritis doesn’t just slow you down.
If you’re not careful, it can slow you down permanently.
That’s because arthritis pain can make you inactive, chained to your couch or bed all day.
And the more inactive you become, the more your risk for DOZENS of diseases skyrockets.
Taking care of your arthritis isn’t just about making your joints feel better. It can really be a matter of life and death.
Fortunately, there are some easy ways to begin REVERSING arthritis quickly.
And they involve some of your favorite foods.
There is a new study, out of the University of Indiana, that looked at what folks with arthritis should be eating.
The researcher reviewed hundreds of research papers and determined that the foods with the best anti-arthritis potential are: ginger, blueberries, olive oil, and green tea.
Why do these nutrients work?
Two reasons:
- First, these foods lower cytokines (short-acting micro-hormones), which trigger inflammation. Reduce certain cytokines and you reduce whole-body inflammation.
- Second, these foods raise antioxidants in your body.
Higher antioxidant protection and reduced inflammation is the key to keeping arthritis at bay.
But you don’t have to stop there. There are other nutrients to keep arthritis from destroying your life.
Dr. Scott’s Joint-Health Protocol
- Collagen Support: One of the main reasons for arthritis is that we don’t give our bodies the basic building block for our joints: collagen. Our ancestors ate collagen in bone broth, blood pudding, and by eating brains and bone marrow. Most of us don’t eat those foods. In our modern world, gelatin is a good source of nutrients needed to build healthy joints. But I strongly suggest that you find a collagen product and supplement. I prefer products that use collagen peptides from pasture-raised animals.
- Eggshell membrane: While few people know about the miracle of eggshell membranes, they have a ton of science supporting their use. They provide more of the nutrients needed for great joint health, and you can find eggshell membrane supplements easily online.
- Inflammation: This can be lowered by avoiding vegetable oils, processed foods, and by eating a low-sugar diet. Fish oil is my favorite anti-inflammatory and I like the herbal extract curcumin and herb, Boswellia, too.
Health and Happiness,
