Since last year when my mother was suffered from crippling pain in her knee due to osteoarthritis, she has been taking one type of medication after another, one dietary supplement after another. I am afraid to even count the number of pills she takes daily and worry that these may do more harm to her health than good, especially to her kidneys.
My mother is educated and would look up health information on the web but I sometimes wonder if the pain last year has caused her a psychological scare. Whatever it is, I am trying to help her reduce her dietary supplements that she has bought over the counter and maybe just go on Omega 3 health supplements. Of course, this will have to be under her doctor's supervision to ensure that there's no reaction to the medication that she us currently taking.
I am also on a combination of Omega 3 and Omega 6 supplement and personally, I didn't sense anything different to my well-being. But then I read that there are some supplements that contain other oils and not just purified Omega 3 or Omega 6 oils. Now that I know, I am going to be extra alert when purchasing my dietary supplements.
In my recent research on Fish oil omega 3 fatty acids, I read that these fatty acids actually help people who suffer from arthritis and I remember a friend, Nancy, telling me that she has it. I think I'm going to let her know that she could relieve the pain with Omega 3 fatty acids.
