Overview:
Arthritis can be healed. But the healing will not
arise from adopting a single miracle treatment or taking a
magical herb or pill. Living successfully with arthritis can be
achieved by the simple, committed lifestyle changes and
combination of healthful natural and traditional treatments
explored in easy-to-understand detail in Robert S. Ivker's
Arthritis Survival. The twenty-one million Americans who suffer
from osteoarthritis are often also suffering from unhealthy
nutritional, physical, and even emotional lifestyles. Yet too
frequently they are told simply to reach into their medicine
cabinet for a cure. While conventional medicine plays an
invaluable role in alleviating the symptoms of this disease, the
Arthritis Survival program will help readers truly relieve their
pain and replace it with a feeling of wellness and hope. In
meticulous and easily understood detail, Arthritis Survival
begins with a "quick fix" guide that outlines the herbs,
vitamins, and other substances that can begin to relieve pain
right away. Dr. Ivker then lays out a program of lifestyle
changes - from exercise, to eating choices, to emotional factors
- that will help readers to gain mastery over arthritis. He
provides specific recipes for healthful eating, a wellness
self-test, and an extensive guide to resources that will allow
readers to further shape their own arthritis survival program.
