A Good Read and It Worked

Dr. Irwin's approach to arthritis is just what I was looking for. He starts out recommending a natural approach, diet. This includes: identifying food allergies and adding vitamins, minerals, and supplements like fish oils or condroitin. If that doesn't work he recommends a more and more "medical" approach starting with hormones (which are already found in the body). If hormones don't work he has a new drug concept that nobody seems to have though of. What I like about this approach is that Dr. Irwin recommends the "natural" treatment first, diet. I also liked the way he wrote. I felt he was speaking directly to me and revealing much about himself in the process. This made his book very readable and helped me embrace the changes I needed to make. By following his diet recommendation, I have greatly reduced my arthritis pain. Previously, I often had sharp pain when I stepped on my clutch (good thing I have a motorcycle for those days) or used certain shoes. Now it is only mild discomfort and that is on the bad days. Yepeee! Perhaps, someday, I will have to try Dr. Irwin's more aggressive approaches, but I'm already very happy with my current results.
