Supplements & Osteoporosis

Herbs & supplements that are helpful for inflammation include Boswellia, feverfew, and white willow. SAMe (S-adenosyl methionine) has been shown to increase the formation of healthy tissue and reduce pain, stiffness, and swelling - better than ibuprophen & naproxen. This was by using 400 mg taken 3 times a day.
Naicinamide (250 mg 4 times a day) has also been shown to help joint mobility, improved muscle strength and decreased fatigue. Also, D-phenylalanine, (250 mg 3 or 4 times a day) helps inhibit the enzyme that breaks down some of the body´s natural pain killers.
Many people also find some relief by using cayenne creams as a muscle-type rub. This helps relieve pain by stimulating the release of sensory nerve neurotransmitters, which then interfere with pain messages being sent. This is a temporary remedy, but can help reduce pain a bit.
