Arthritis Alternative Medicine
 Ann Foster, an avid camper and hiker originally from Arkansas, dreamed for years of moving to the mountains of Colorado. But when that dream finally came true, Foster found herself sidelined with joint pain so severe that it was sometimes a challenge to walk across the room, let alone hike the Rockies.

Line of Arthritis Medication
Foster had taken very expensive arthritis medicine for years, but her joint pain only worsened. One thing she found in the Boulder area besides mountains was access to alternative medicine practitioners. Her physician recommended complete testing for food allergies, and they revealed that Foster was allergic to wheat, rice, eggs, milk and other common foods.
After changing her diet, Foster's joint pain disappeared and she was able to resume her normal, active lifestyle. And, she was able to stop spending $100 per month on arthritis medicine. "People probably won't believe it, but I was cured within two weeks," says Foster, who had expected to struggle with arthritis pain the rest of her life. "It was miraculous."
Arthritis Alternative Medicine Specials
| Prior to finding out she had food allergies, Foster had adopted a diet heavy in rice and bread products that actually made the problems worse. After the allergy diagnosis, she switched to a basic menu composed primarily of fresh fruit, vegetables and nuts--as well as wheat and rice alternatives such as quinoa (pronounced
keenwah), rye and kamut. These often-ancient replacements for staple grains are gaining in popularity, and their many positive nutritional qualities recommend them as health food for today. Modern chefs are developing new and creative ways of preparing these grain replacements. In the process, they're also preserving ancient plant varieties, as well as helping diversify America's mono-cropped farms. |
