Inflammation and Celedrin
by Carrie A. Corson, from the July 2005 newsletter
Recently there has been a lot of concern reported over possible dangerous side effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) drugs. As a result of these reports, many people who suffer from osteoarthritis are searching for alternatives. One such alternative is an all-natural product called Celedrin. Celedrin is a patented, complex blend of special esterified fatty acids reported to decrease inflammation and lubricate cell membranes throughout the body. This helps restore fluids that cushion bones and joints in order to promote flexibility and mobility. Because of the reduction of inflammation, surrounding tissue reportedly has the opportunity to promote healthy joints.
Celadrin can be taken in conjunction with glucosamine sulfate and other natural approaches for osteoarthritis. Celadrin may actually help glucosamine, which helps to re-build cartilage in arthritic joints, to work faster and more efficiently in building joint cartilage and promoting joint health.
Celadrin is available in both oral and topical applications. Celadrin cream can be applied to affected areas on an as-needed basis. Follow manufacturers’ recommendations for oral applications. Since Celadrin is a fatty acid complex, softgel capsules may provide advantages in absorption over tablets or hard gelatin capsules (Natural Facts, Doctor Michael Murray, March 2005).
Numerous studies have been conducted on the safety and effectiveness of Celadrin. Results of these studies have been published in both the Journal of Rheumatology and the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research. Scientific Acute Toxicity and Ames test screening have validated Celedrin’s safety. However, as with all supplements, if you have questions about whether Celadrin is right for you, check with your health care practitioner before adding Celadrin to any supplement regimen.
