Hemp Seed Oil in the Treatment of Arthritis
The increasing number of patients with arthritis has caused much alarm to medical experts. To this date, there has been no success in finding a specific cure for the disease. In other words, the phenomenon of joint destruction is causing more and more people much pain.
Why is arthritis painful?
When the body’s immune response causes the joints to inflame, this causes much destruction in the area. Once the joint has been destroyed by the body’s own immune response, cartilage and bone is left to rub on each other and this rubbing is what makes arthritis very painful. Since there is still no treatment for this specific phenomenon, only pain relief is given.
As a result, this situation goes on and on, without resolution. Conventional medicines are numerous and readily available. However, with the many side effects of prescription medicines, their use has become very unpopular.
Thankfully, there have been a number of natural remedies that have proven to be good relief to inflammation and one of the many products is hemp seed oil. It comes in capsule or liquid form and it works very well as long as it is taken. It has a nutty taste and can therefore be mixed in salad dressings and dips. It can be taken mixed or on its own, and is suitable for use of vegetarians and vegans.
How Hemp Seed Oil Works
Imagine how the oil functions for an automobile. Oil in the engine of a car is used to lubricate the system. Similarly, hemp oil is used to lubricate the joint systems that have been destructed by the disease.
1. It contains a perfect balance of Omega 3, 6, and 9 that the body needs and comes with Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA) that can enhance body healing and boost the function of the immune system.
2. Its essential fatty acids can also improve cell growth and organ function as well as mental state and vitality.
3. It contains essential amino acids and essential fatty acids that help maintain health.
With the discovery of more natural remedies like hemp seeds, patients suffering from arthritis are able to improve the quality of life that they have without having to depend on other people. They can carry on with their lives and do the things they enjoy most and if you, too, are suffering from arthritis, know that your life does not end there. You can make your life better.

They also present an article about marijuana being an alternative cure for Arthritis. Upon seeing the article link I was delighted, that was until I got into the article and took notice of this statement:
Unfortunately, because of its many recreational benefits, the use of marijuana as a treatment for certain illness and disease still pose a very big issue to the public. In the first place, marijuana is still illegal in most parts of the world and you simply cannot turn a blind eye to the many harmful effects of taking it.
For this reason, it is still very difficult to prescribe marijuana as treatment because of the risk it involves, not to mention the fact that possession of the drug can still send the bearer to prison.
Many stories of dependency and addiction have been heard about marijuana. In fact, not only teenagers are found to be at risk with using it. Often times it has become a choice between being dependent on the drug to be able to continue with their lives or being dependent on family and friends to be able to get by. It is, therefore, a very tough decision to make and often times pride gets in the way.
I’m surprised that they would make such an unfounded claim, especially with no supporting evidence. Many harmful effects such as? The only harmful effects of marijuana, especially when consumed in any way besides smoking, is a decrease in sperm and dreaming. Throw in some weight gain if the munchies get to you, but other than that there are no harmful effects. As for it being addictive, caffeine, alcohol, and the nicotine in tobacco products are all more addictive than marijuana.

I also had arthritis and when I learned about the healthy hemp, I started adding it into my diet. I use the hemp oil in cooking and adding it over my porridge. I like the hemp shake too. Since then, I started to be relieved of the pain. Unbelievable but really true.
