HERBS USED IN
ARTHRITIS
In
several parts of the world, particularly in the cradles of ancient
civilization, there are herbal remedies that have been in use for
thousands of years in the treatment of Arthritis.
It should be noted that like any other medicines, some herbs may cause
adverse effects and reactions. Hence,
they should not be used without knowing their properties and side-effects.
So it is advisable to take herbs in consultation with a herbalist.
If
qualified medical herbalists prescribe herbs, the safety record of herbal
medicines is impeccable. It
is always possible to misuse any form of medication but herbal medicines
are essentially non-toxic and non-addictive, hence much safer than
conventional drugs. It is
also possible to take herbal
medicines with other drugs if the practitioners so desire by taking into
account the outcome of the combination.
