Natural Treatment Helps Arthritis
Study Findings:
- A topical cream consisting of a blend of natural oils called cetylated fatty acids significantly increased range of motion and physical performance in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee with no reported side effects.
- The proprietary blend of cetylated fatty acids used in both studies is now available in Celecaine(TM), an over-the-counter treatment available in both cream and capsule form from IHS Bioceuticals, LLC at http://www.celecaine.com . The cream is designed for temporary relief of minor aches and pains associated with simple backache, arthritis, strains, bruises and sprains. The capsules are designed to promote joint flexibility, mobility and overall joint health.
Topical cream study: In the case of the cetylated fatty acid topical cream, the double-blind, placebo-controlled study published this year tested 40 patients who applied either the cream or a placebo twice a day for 30 days. Researchers at the University of Connecticut found that patients who used the cream experienced significant improvements in knee range of motion, balance and strength as well as the ability to climb stairs, rise from a chair and walk. Improvements were observed within 30 minutes, with additional benefits after 30 days.
