It’s important to realise that none of these substances offers a cure for arthritis, since no cure exists. But substances such as Cetyl Myristoleate can help with managing the condition, by improving quality or life and slowing down the progression of the disease. It acts at the site of the damaged joint, and as well as reducing inflammation it appears to help lubricate the joint’s surface.
Many people find this substance helpful in managing their symptoms and it’s extremely unlikely to do you any harm even if it doesn’t work for you. Many studies have been carried out on Cetyl myristoleate and no harmful effects have ever been found, even in very high doses. Though, as with any medicine, if you have any doubts or questions you should consult your doctor before taking these supplements. Health practitioners often recommend trying the supplement for a period of three months to see if it works for you.
