Williamson Chiropractic Spinal Care Treatment Plan: Nutritional Tea!
Drink your way to health? Yes, when the drink is tea! Skeletal pain arising from aging-related conditions responds well to muscle and joint boosters like those in green tea. Apple Country Chiropractic presents nutritional tips like drinking green tea to our Williamson chiropractic patients.
AGING-RELATED SKELETAL, CARTILAGE, AND JOINT DISEASES
With aging come skeletal risks like disc height loss and changes like the two joint and muscle diseases called osteoarthritis and sarcopenia. A recent study looked at how height loss and vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women were linked. The researchers concluded that age rather than the height loss was suggested to be the better way to determine vertebral fracture risk. (1) Spinal osteoarthritis was linked with stature loss in postmenopausal women, a situation documented to decrease quality of life. (2) Cartilage is the sufferer of the inflammatory and degenerative aspects of these diseases. The loss of strength and muscle mass that accompanies sarcopenia necessitates attention to quantity and quality of skeletal muscle mass which is where where green tea comes into play. Green tea contains catechins that help maintain healthy joints and skeletal muscle by reducing inflammatory mediators. (3) Apple Country Chiropractic believes you may enjoy some beneficial green tea!
NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS
Green tea comes in many forms. An additional new article writes that knee osteoarthritis patients benefitted from a mixture of curcuminoids, collagen and green tea extract which exhibited anti-inflammatory properties. The researchers suggested that natural ingredients provide a rational role in the management of osteoarthritis. (4) Another natural option: spearmint tea! A report of how spearmint teas affected knee osteoarthritis discovered that a commercial spearmint tea bettered stiffness and physical disability while a spearmint tea brewed from a high-rosmarinic acid (high-rosA) variety significantly decreased pain. (5) Rosmarinic acid is taken from the woody, perennial herb, rosemary. it’s a polyphenolic compound with antioxidant properties. Polyphenols are written to be anti-cancer, anti-tumor cell proliferation, anti-apoptosis (cell death), anti-metastasis, and anti-inflammatory. Rosmarinic acid is found in plant species like the mint. (6) Apple Country Chiropractic is on the hunt for some high-rosA spearmint tea to enhance the Williamson chiropractic treatment plan.
