Is emu oil good for people with lupus? |
my mom has painful joints and has a stiff neck. Her medicine doesn't seem to help. She has joint pains and wants some natural relief since NSAIDS are bad for people. Hi RX Queen sorry to hear your mum's in pain, my daughter also has Lupus and I have been looking into the benefits of emu oil. An analysis of emu oil by a professor at Auburn University showed that emu oil contains a high level of linolenic acid, a substance known to ease the pains of muscles and joints. The study also showed that emu oil contains oleic acid, which is good for local anti-inflammatory problems. Does her Lupus come with any skin rashes, or is she just plagued with joint problems? I would try something like Prosit for the joints, do a search on Google/Yahoo for prosit +joints, it is a natural product that helps with many joint issues. Good luck and best wishes Google Prosit +Joints I have a friend with incredibly bad Fibromyalia she is using EMU Oil with wonderful results. She said that the Emu Oil at Wal-mart work as well as the more expensive Blue Emu oil. Lupus is not a natural condition. It is not natural for the immune system to attack the self, but it happens. Lupus is worse for people than NSAIDS. The joint pain associated with lupus is caused by inflammation. Anti-inflammatories (NSAID=non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) and steroids, which are anti-inflammatory, as well as immunosuppressive drugs reduce the inflammation thereby reducing pain. She can hold out for "natural" and be in pain and perhaps cause permanent joint damage or she can take the meds and risk the side effects. It's a no win situation in which each patient must make the decision for him/herself. |

Hi RX Queen sorry to hear your mum's in pain, my daughter also has Lupus and I have been looking into the benefits of emu oil. An analysis of emu oil by a professor at Auburn Univers... Yes, they can be. They could also be signs of numerous other things. Only your physician can diagnose lupus or any other joint related disease.... Oh, come on... Don't ask that question here. See your doctor.... I am waiting for my call to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minnisota for Stem Cell harvesting and in plant.. they are one of the biggest stem cell implant hospitals in the world.. Go to may... ana test will prove if 1 has lupus. personally have lupus now in end stages. Dr's know no more now then they did 20 years ago. no funding for cause or cures out there. lupus is just now... I used to make these cookies for my diabetic elderly aunt. She really loved them and they're very healthy: 3 ripe bananas- mashed 1 cup chopped dried fruit (raisins, apricots, prunes... I think that alot of doctors just don't know alot about Lupus. It's hard to diagnose, and essentially is what you are told you have when all other diseases are ruled out in some cas... It can but this is really a question for a Doctor.... |
