Ayurveda Found Cure for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Study Finds
Overview
A new study published in the Journal of Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine has found a cure for rheumatoid arthritis in Ayurveda.
Joint pain and cracking sounds in the bones are not only common in older adults but also affect individuals as young as 20 to 35. However, there is new optimism for those dealing with joint diseases.
Ayurveda has discovered a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis. A recent scientific study has emphasized the significant benefits of the Ayurvedic Whole System (AWS) in managing rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an autoimmune condition affecting millions worldwide. The research indicates that AWS not only eases RA symptoms but also restores metabolic changes in patients, providing new optimism for traditional medicine.
The study observed a significant decrease in the Disease Activity Score-28 and erythrocyte sedimentation rate, as well as notable improvements in swollen and weakened joints. Additionally, there was a substantial reduction in the AMA Activity Measure (AAM) score, which assesses toxin levels in the body, following treatment.
The research also analyzed the metabolic profiles of RA patients in comparison to healthy individuals. Initially, levels of certain metabolites in RA patients, such as succinate, lysine, mannose, creatine, and 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-HB), were elevated. However, after undergoing Ayurvedic holistic treatment, the level of alanine decreased, and the other metabolic markers began to normalize, approaching levels seen in healthy individuals. This suggests a return to a more balanced metabolic state.
Researchers assert that this study is the first to clearly illustrate the effects of AWS in managing rheumatoid arthritis (RA). They claim that AWS treatment not only alleviates symptoms but also creates a favorable metabolic environment for maintaining balance, providing long-term benefits for RA patients.
