Arthritis, Gout, Fibromyalgia, Tendonitits, Carpal Tunnel and Bursitis
Boss Lady offers a high potency content of saponins, which have significant
medicinal benefits.
In effect, when the body becomes infected with toxins, these toxins can
accumulate and produce inflammations (increased nitric oxide) that develop
into arthritis, gout, bursitis, Fibromyalgia, joint and muscle inflammation,
and a myriad of other conditions.
The following is a direct and partial excerpt taken as a quote from a
free article available online, written by Dr. Larry Milam who is deserving
of all the acclaims of his work (none greater than his involvement in
the University of Natural Medicine with true experts the likes of Dr.
Zhou). This document is important because it shows the “real”
effects of traditional western medicine with the many other side effects
that result and the “real” reason we should be looking to
Boss Lady and Mother Nature for actual permanent cures to problems, not
symptoms to find temporary relief!
This is exactly what we are attempting to help people with and here is
the evidence to give you the confidence to use Boss Lady’s formulation
as a part of your daily health regime. Click here to purchase.
Enjoy the follow for a greater understanding and peace of mind about
Boss Lady’s “miraculous” benefits as they pertain to
joint and muscle inflammatory conditions (like arthritis, gout, bursitis,
carpal tunnel, fibromyalgia, etc..)
There is strong evidence that some forms of arthritis may be caused or
worsened by toxic substances in the intestines and these toxins may be
absorbed by the body.
Saponins are not absorbed in the blood, but works within the small and
large intestines.
Saponins act favorably on flora organisms of the intestines, encouraging
growth of friendly bacteria and decreasing harmful bacteria.

AM/PM Osteo-Flex Alternative in the treatment of
Arthritis, Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis
and Bones, Joints and Cartilage Disorders
A Technical Bulletin by Dr. Larry Milam, H.MD
A Study of Traditional Arthritic Drugs and Promising Natural
Alternatives in the Treatment of Arthritis, Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid
Arthritis, Bones, Joints and Cartilage Disorders
According to the Arthritis Foundation, roughly one-sixth of the total
U.S. population, nearly forty million Americans, have arthritis. Approximately
80% of people over the age of 50 will experience arthritis in one of its
many forms. Arthritis, however, is not exclusively a problem of the elderly.
It can strike at any time and at any age. Under the age of 45, osteoarthritis
is much more common in men. At age 55, it makes a dramatic shift, becoming
much more common in women.
"Arthritis" has become the catchall term for over one hundred
various diseases generally referred to as "rheumatic diseases".
The American College of Rheumatologists list ten categories of rheumatic
disease, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, ankylosing
spondylitis, Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), tendinitis, bursitis,
fibromyalgia and a number of bone and cartilage disorders. "Arthritis"
is, in fact, a major symptoms of this larger group.
The term arthritis is said to be derived from Greek and means "inflammation
of a joint." Symptoms include swelling, stiffness, tenderness, redness,
loss of joint function, degradation, deformity and pain that have become
the hallmark of the "rheumatic family of diseases." While not
all forms of rheumatic diseases are referred to as "inflammatory",
each, in its own way, involves inflammation to some extent and affects
not only the joints and secondary tissues, but the body as a whole. Movement
can be severely impaired and the associated pain can be episodic, unpredictable
in duration and can even fade away for an undetermined period of time,
only to "flare-up" when least expected.
Over time these continuing "flare-ups" can leave a myriad of
problems. The affected joints may become deformed or bent into unnatural
positions. Loss of mobility can range from limited to severe, with some
joints literally frozen in place. Fleshy nodules can appear under the
skin and calcification is common. The whole body can experience fatigue.
Eyes may become dry and inflamed, lymph nodes swell, the appetite is reduced,
and sores refuse to heal. Compression of nerves and blood vessels can
cause pain and vascular insufficiency. Cartilage loses its integrity,
causing uneven joints and bone rubbing.
In short, the cumulative effects of arthritis wear on us to the point
that we reach for a "quick fix' readily offered by hundreds of
commercials and advertisements that claim symptoms and pain can be
eliminated by reaching for an ever stronger dose of the most recent
arthritis medication.

Standard Treatments (NSAIDS)
The primary drugs used in the treatment of arthritis, particularly rheumatoid
and osteoarthritis are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDS) which include
aspirin. In most cases, these drugs have proven to be of only limited
value. They often suppress the symptoms, but accelerate factors that promote
the disease itself NSAIDS have been shown to greatly in crease the already
hyperpermeable gastrointestinal tract of those who suffer from rheumatoid
arthritis. Best selling author, Dr. Michael Murray, in his book Arthritis,
says, "The use of NSAIDS are a significant cause of serious gastrointestinal
tract reactions, including ulcer hemorrhage and perforation, and lead
to as many as 20,000 hospitalizations and 2,600 deaths each year"
Aspirin is often effective in relieving both the pain and inflammation
of arthritis, how ever, since the therapeutic dose required is relatively
high (2 to 4 grams per day), toxicity is quite common. Tinnitis (ringing
in the ears) and gastric irritation are early manifestations of toxicity
Other NSAIDS include: Fenoprofen (Nalfon), Ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil,
Nuprin), Indomethacin (Indocin, Indometh), Meclofenamate (Meclofen, Meclomen),
Naproxen (Naprosyn), Piroxicam (Feldene), Sulindac (Clinoril) and Tolmetin
(Tolectin).
Although these drugs have not been proven to be more effective than aspirin,
they appear, in some cases, to be better tolerated. Generally, they are
recommended for only short periods of time since prolonged use carries
the risk of significant side effects.
Most side effects are the result of high doses that must be given in
order to suppress the symptoms. The most common side effects of NSAIDS
is damage to the intestinal tract and NSAID-induced peptic ulcer.' NSAIDS
often cause allergic reactions, easy bleeding and bruising, ringing in
the ears, fluid retention, heartburn, indigestion, abdominal cramps, gas,
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, urinary tract infection, rashes,
headaches, depression, dizziness or fatigue, weight gain or loss.
When given in high doses over long peri ods of time, NSAIDS may cause
kidney or liver damage
One serious side effect of aspirin and other NSAIDS that is often overlooked
is the inhibition of cartilage repair and acceleration of cartilage destruction.3
Some clinical studies have shown that NSAIDS are associated with acceleration
of osteoarthritis and increased joint destruction. The higher the dose
and the longer the use of NSAIDS, the greater the joint destruction.
There is increasing evidence that aspirin and other NSAIDS appear to
suppress the symptoms, but accelerate the progression of osteoarthritis.
If possible, the use of these drugs should be avoided or severely reduced.
Discontinuing any drug should be done gradually over a period of
time and under the direction of your health care professional

Corticosteroids
A second class of commonly used drugs for arthritis are the corticosteroids.
These include cortisone hormones and synthetic corticosteroids like prednisone
and methylprednisone. While the synthetics have less extreme side effects,
the long term use of synthetic corticosteroids, even at low doses, can
cause serious, sometimes life- threatening problems. The lease serious
of these side effects include the growth of facial hair, acne, fluid retention,
weight gain, easy bruising, sleeplessness, muscle wasting and headaches.
More serious side effects are stomach ulcers, inflammation of the pancreas,
and the leaching of calcium from the bones (osteoporosis), which makes
fracturing easier. These drugs suppress the immune response and, as a
result, increase the risk of bacterial infections. They can promote narrowing
of the blood vessels by fatty deposits and calcification (atherosclerosis).
They can cause cataracts and glaucoma. Some studies indicate that they
can suppress the normal functioning of the adrenal glands, suppressing
the production of their natural hormones.
High doses of corticosteroids can spread previously limited infections
to all parts of the body and can actually kill the living parts of
bone, ultimately causing bone collapse.

SAARDS & DMARDS
A third class of drugs are known by two names: Slow Acting Anti-Rheumatic
Drugs or SAARDS, and Disease Modifying Anti- Rheumatic drugs or DMARDS.
As the first name implies, these drugs take a long time to begin working,
but eventually have an effect. They are used primarily in the treatment
of inflammatory kinds of arthritis, especially rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing
spondylitis and arthritis associated with systemic lupus erythematosus.
The first group are antimalarials such as chloroquine (Aralen) and hydroxy-chloroquine
(Plaquenil). Side effects include in digestion, nausea, vomiting,
headaches, nervousness, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, psoriasis, ringing
in the ear and blurred vision. Because the risk of eye damage is great,
most doctors recommend an eye examination every six months.

D-penicillamine
More than twenty-five percent of people taking D-penicillamine (Cuprimine)
quit within the first year due to its unwanted side effects. These
include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, rashes, kidney damage, blood abnormalities,
drug-induced lupus and myasthenia gravis (where muscles gradually
be come weaker and weaker). Anyone taking this drug is advised to
have regular blood and urine tests to determine whether they should
continue its use.

Summary of Arthritic Drugs
The prognosis is not bright for the long term use of most of these drugs.
In most cases, their benefit is greatly outweighed by significant toxicity.
Their use often produces significant side effects that can only be suppressed
with additional drugs. Dr. Michael Murray…states that "It is
not uncommon for individuals with rheumatoid arthritis to be on 12 or
more prescription drugs at one time."
Anyone who is considering using these or other arthritic drugs should
ask their health care professional about their side effects. Your health
care professional can also provide assistance in exploring natural alternatives
without the side effects.
Standard treatment recommended for those who suffer from arthritis is
estimated to be a $10 billion-a-year industry in the United States.
"How successful have these traditional treatments been?"
A group of English Rheumatologists conducted a study from 1964 to
1986 (22 years) of 112 rheumatoid arthritis patients who had received
aggressive treatment at a center for rheumatoid diseases in Great
Britain. At the end of the study, "over one-third of the patients
were dead and more than half were either dead or severely disabled"
At the ten year mark, participating physicians had been optimistic
The patient's condition and function seemed to improve initially.
After ten years of treatment, however, their condition declined considerably
and joint destruction progressed. At the twenty year mark, nineteen
percent of the patients were severely disabled. (Apparently none of
the remaining patients showed any improvement.) The authors concluded
that the concept that drugs induce a remission in patients is fallacious.
