All of the herbs in PreArthos have long histories of use in traditional medical systems like Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine

If I don’t take medications and herbs that reduce inflammation and pain will I be allowing my arthritis to worsen?

Will PreArthos cure my arthritis?

Presently there is no cure for arthritis. The goal of treatment is to reduce symptoms like pain and stiffness and improve the function of affected joints.

Can PreArthos be used with other treatments for arthritis?

Yes. PreArthos has been designed with the recognition that patients will probably already be on other treatments. However, you should still consult your doctor before starting any new medications or herbs.

What are the side effects of PreArthos arthritis treatment?

While the combination of substances present in the whole herb versus isolation of one chemical constituent does have potential for a decrease in side effects, all drugs, even over-the-counter medications, have potential side effects.

Contact your doctor if you are experiencing problems.

Why did your doctor recommend PreArthos or PreArthos+?

Medical treatment of arthritis has been limited to the use of Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID's) such as aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil®, Motrin®), and naproxen (Aleve®) and COX-2 inhibitors such as Celebrex®. While effective, all these drugs have large and potentially dangerous cardiovascular and gastro-intestinal side-effects.

I am 48 years old and like most others my age, I was increasingly concerned about my rising cholesterol level. I was skeptical about using an herbal product as treatment but after hearing about PreLipid I gave it a try, and the results speak for themselves!

PreDisease.com

When I got tested, my high cholesterol levels were a shock and a real wake up call for me. I did not want to take a prescription drug fearing that it would interact negatively with what I was already taking. I found out about PreLipid from a friend and now my cholesterol is back in a normal range.

PreDisease.com

I dropped my cholesterol level 30 points in just three months. What more can I say - the secret is out! I strongly recommend PreLipid to anybody that is serious about their health.

Testimonials

Pre-disease or early disease is when we have a real opportunity to reduce the burden of chronic disease through evidence-based botanical therapeutic formulations. I believe that this is also the place that many botanical remedies will prove to have the most impact because of their milder, yet optimal therapeutic effects and a almost non-existent side effect profile.
