People with chronic health problems quickly learn one thing about the medical industry --- nobody has all the answers or all the solutions. You could spend millions of dollars visiting specialists and experts trying to find out how to get relief from your pain and discomfort.
Another thing people with chronic health problems realize is that medical science doesnt have all the answers. People end up doing a lot of research and investigation themselves and what happens is they are often overwhelmed. With the advent of the internet, there is more information than you could possibly hope for on any medical condition. It is too much. It becomes confusing and it is difficult to know whom to trust.
The best advice in this area is to first seek an opinion from medical experts and then when experimenting with treatments outside the medical realm, make them as close to natural as possible. Be wary o anything that contains chemicals or manufactured ingredients made in a lab. Then ask your doctor if the product is harmful. If not, then go for it.
Nopalea juice is one of those products that is all natural. Using the nopal cactus and its flesh and juice for both food and medical properties can be traced back to the Aztecs. It is comforting to try to find relief for medical conditions by something that is actually safe enough to be ingested as food. The flesh of the Nopal (also called the Prickly Pear) Cactus is even sold in grocery stores.
Nopalea is renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties. It is said that inflammation is the root cause of many diseases and chronic discomforts. It is also believed that Nopalea juice is chock full of antioxidants and a property called betalains which contains many of the B vitamins and minerals.
Many people who suffer from inflammatory based diseases such as fibromyalgia, arthritis and asthma have found relief from something as simple as the juice.
Other inflammatory-based diseases include rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, atherosclerosis, diabetes, obstructive pulmonary lung disease, osteoarthritis and psoriasis.
Only recently, as attested to in a Time magazine article, doctors have discovered the link between inflammation and disease. You see inflammation is the bodys response to germs. According to the Time article, inflammation is the bodys first line of defense. When you get a cut, inflammation is the bodys response to the bacteria trying to get in your body. The area is swarmed with white blood cells fighting infection. Apparently, when plaque in arteries builds up, the body responds in the exact same way, but the plaque can burst, which can lead to a heart attack.
Therefore, inflammation is the silent killer we are just discovering. The body responds to allergies and asthma with inflammation as well. Inflammation is the response to so many different medical issues. By ingesting a substance to reduce inflammation, we can prevent some of the symptoms of allergies, without taking away the bodys natural response and fight against them. Therefore, we get the benefits without the symptoms.
