Learn about the causes of

 Arthritis

Arthritis is such a common occurrence today that it is assumed that as we get older we become prone to various arthritic conditions that are either inherited or acquired through repetitive motion or joint trauma. Arthritis means inflammation of a joint. The source of this inflammation is the key to understanding arthritis. Once we understand the cause, we can look at addresssing the cause instead of just treating symptoms. This will help you to understand the source of many other illnesses.

Try to think of arthritis as an effect of an underlying inflammatory process, not a disease. When people are diagnosed with arthritis, they are often told that it is inherited or genetic. Genetic and inherited are common terms to explain that you have a pre-disposition to a certain illness. These terms do not reveal the reason why certain illnesses run in the same family. Genetic should be called pathogenetic, meaning that what is passed on is actually a pathogen carried in the mothers womb and aquired by her offspring.

Most arthritis has an lingering infectious component. My book reveals the sources of these specific causative agents in much more detail and will give you a different perspective on how to address this disease process.
