Arthritis is one of the leading causes of disability and it affects more than 350 million people in the world. This term refers to more than 150 diseases which are usually associated with pain and the inability to perform daily tasks.
As opposed to the usual belief, arthritis does not only affect the elderly as more than 3 in 5 people below the age of 65 are suffering from arthritis. The women’s population (23.5%) was found to be more prevalent compared to the men’s population (18.1%). Higher prevalence of arthritis was also found in physically inactive people (23.6%) than people who have met the recommended levels of physical activity (18.1%).
There is no definite cure for arthritis though. There are treatments to ease the pain and inflammation. Despite having medications like NSAIDS or NMARDs being available on the market, many have shifted towards joint supplements over medication. Analgesics have shown potential side effects and complications that eventually places one’s health at risk with long term use.
