Eighty percent of people over the age of
50 suffer from arthritis. Plus more
people are living active lifestyles and
sometimes the pain and strain from exercise
can make recovery difficult. Traditionally
people turn to a vast number of over-thecounter
(OTC) solutions such as aspirin,
ibuprofen and acetaminophen. Many people
today are looking for natural options that are
safer, offer less long-term risk and provide
solutions to common pain, inflammation
and arthritis.
One example of the emerging science in
natural medicine is Nexrutine. Nexrutine is
an exciting new dietary supplement that has
potent anti-inflammatory action. A rapidlyacting
ingredient, Nexrutine alleviates the
pain associated with arthritis as well as the
joint and muscle soreness associated with
over-exertion or physical activity.
Significantly, test subjects report that
Nexrutine not only eases general aches and
pains but also helps make everyday activity
more comfortable.
A lack of side effects is one advantage
Nexrutine has over other painkillers like
ibuprofen, naproxen and other nonsteroidal
anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS).
Nexrutines unique mechanism of action is
an even more compelling attribute. A comparison
with other anti-inflammatory drugs
serves as a good illustration. First, Nexrutine
inhibits the Cox-2 enzyme, a chemical in the
body that causes inflammation. Unlike other
Cox-2 inhibitors, Nexrutine does not act
directly on the enzyme itself. Instead,
Nexrutines true strength resides in its ability
to inhibit the actual production of the
enzyme that leads to inflammation so it
shuts off the problem at the source.
