FOR THE FIRST TIME–A REVOLUTIONARY HOME PROGRAM THAT ACTUALLY REVERSES JOINT DISEASE

The human body contains one hundred and forty-three joints–those intricately fashioned connections that enable us to sit, walk, drive, chew, type an e-mail, and perform the thousands of other activities that occupy us every day. Though joints are designed to remain strong and flexible for a lifetime, in fact, joint problems are the leading cause of disability in the world. Until recently, medicine offered the millions of Americans suffering from osteoarthritis, rheumatic arthritis, gout, and many other acutely painful rheumatic ailments only a modicum of relief. Now, at last, there’s good news!

This groundbreaking book features the landmark study in which gelatin supplements not only helped patients relieve pain but actually restored their joints to better health. Dr. James Rippe presents a highly effective eight-week home program created specifically to increase the strength and flexibility of your joints. Inside you will discover

• Easy tests that measure your current joint health
• The various causes of and risk factors for joint problems
• Foods, supplements, and herbs that help prevent joint degeneration
• Exercises that reduce pain and increase your mobility
• Everyday activities that help keep your joints strong and lubricated
• Alternative practices that support your joint-health regimen
• The pros and cons of prescription drugs

The Joint Health Prescription is based on striking new thinking about joint disease–and everything you need to know to begin this safe and balanced program is here. In as little as eight weeks, you can regain freedom of movement and freedom from pain for a fuller, healthier, more active life.
