The Arthritis Handbook: Improve Your Health and Manage the Pain of Osteoarthritis
Mar 2nd
Product Description
According to conventional wisdom, arthritis pain is an inevitable part of aging. Not so, says Dr. Grant Cooper in this practical, accessible guide. For those who do develop osteoarthritic conditions, this book offers a blend of commonsense advice, dietary info, targeted exercise, and tips on useful supplements. According to the author, sufferers can often entirely avoid the use of medication, injection therapy, and surgery — approaches that, when necessary, can be used as an opportunity to return to exercise and nutrition to slow the disease’s progress. The book features easy, illustrated exercises, including aerobics and strength training, that can be done at home, at a gym, or under a trainer’s or physical therapist’s supervision. Nutritional and supplement strategies — including glucosamine and fish oil — are presented in detail, along with suggestions for ways to keep on track. Dr. Cooper not only explores each topic in depth but explains how it fits into an overall holistic treatment program.

“Osteoarthritis” What Is It & What You Should Know
Mar 2nd
Product Description
What Is Osteoarthritis? Osteoarthritis (AH-stee-oh-ar-THREYE-tis) is the most common type of arthritis, especially among older people. Sometimes it is called degenerative joint disease or osteoarthrosis. Osteoarthritis is a joint disease that mostly affects the cartilage (KAR-til-uj). Cartilage is the slippery tissue that covers the ends of bones in a joint. Healthy cartilage allows bones to glide over one another. It also absorbs energy from the shock of physical movement. In osteoarthritis, the surface layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows bones under the cartilage to rub together, causing pain, swelling, and loss of motion of the joint. Over time, the joint may lose its normal shape. Also, bone spurs—small growths called osteophytes— may grow on the edges of the joint. Bits of bone or cartilage can break off and float inside the joint space. This causes more pain and damage. People with osteoarthritis usually have joint pain and limited movement. Unlike some other forms of arthritis, osteoarthritis affects only joints and not internal organs. For example, rheumatoid arthritis—the second most common form of arthritis—affects other parts of the body besides the joints. It begins at a younger age than osteoarthritis, causes swelling and redness in joints, and may make people feel sick, tired, and (uncommonly) feverishBuy Now: "Osteoarthritis" What Is It & What You Should Know

The Fit Arthritic: Fighting Knee and Hip Arthritis with Exercise
Feb 6th
Product Description
In my book: "The Fit Arthritic: Fighting Knee and Hip Arthritis with Exercise" I will describe how someone with arthritis can start to take control of their pain and improve their health. I encourage collaboration with a health professional and will help my readers to learn more about osteoarthritis and self-treatment options. I detail many medications in the book and hope that my readers will be able to reduce their use of prescription and over-the-counter pain medications. I define fitness for someone with arthritis and help the reader to plan and exercise their way to less pain and improved health. My goal is that those affected with osteoarthritis can be come a "fit arthritic" with me. From the Foreword: "I am now in my mid-forties and pleasantly enjoying mostly pain-free days. I used to consume more than 2000 ibuprofen tablets yearly and now I rarely take them for knee pain. I can walk for extended distances and finished a day-long hike in Yosemite National Park this year. I am finally at a healthy weight around 175 pounds. I have discovered many principles that have helped me to become more active, suffer from less pain, and yes, consider myself fit once again."
