Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses rheumatoid arthritis, a painful and chronic disease of the joints which has been a focus of medical investigation for over a hundred years. Once thought to be solely caused by gout or rheumatism, this title details how this condition is actually caused by a combination of factors, including genetics, cold, damp, anxiety, and physical injuries. The author, an experienced and successful clinician, also refutes many common misconceptions about the disease, such as the idea that it can be managed by changing diet alone. In their place, they offer a detailed treatment plan that has proven effective in their own practice. This plan includes an analysis of current and past therapies, including nutrition, clothing, massage, and climate, and their differential efficacy. The author places great importance on the discovery of a central nervous system lesion as the primary cause of most instances of this condition, and a discussion of the implications of this for treatment options. The text concludes with a discussion of the use of animal extracts in rheumatoid arthritis, and the potential of this promising new treatment option.
