Glucosamine is not new to the market. It occurs naturally in our bodies in and around the joints and connective tissue. Glucosamine sulphate is the preferred choice for relief of joint pain and arthritis. The body readily uses it, 95% is absorbed through the Intestines. After absorption it travels to joint tissues, where it is incorporated into the connective tissue matrix of cartilage, ligaments and tendons. Many athletes and sports people take glucosamine; this can help prevent muscle injuries. Taken long term Glucosamine appears to be very safe. It may not bring quick relief, but generally starts working between two and four weeks. Best taken with meals. M.S.M. is a rich source of organic sulphur, used to build amino acids, which are critical to healthy connective tissue and cartilage.
Some rheumatoid arthritis sufferers may find taking extra selenium helpful.

Nettle has a diuretic action, attributed to its flavonoid content. These increase the excretion of a number of waste substances from the body, particularly acidic metabolites, eg. uric acid. This action is of particular benefit in gout and arthritic conditions. This cleansing action is of value in chronic skin conditions, especially the itchy complaints such as eczema and nettle rash, where it also appears to possess an antiallergenic action.
