Nowadays sulfur is already considered as an important nutrient because of it may help a person feel relief when they experienced arthritis pain, medical experts say.  Those  whose patients suffering from the unbearable pain on the hips usually end up getting hip replacement. Unfortunately, faulty DePuy ASR hip replacement systems have prompted implant recipients and patients to file lawsuits and wait in agony for the DePuy executives to testify.

 

Arthritis affects the musculoskeletal system, specifically the joints. It is the main cause of disability among people over 50 years old, medical news today says.

 

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and generally affects elderly patients. Some forms of arthritis may affect people at a very early age.

 

Study shows that bathing in Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate), eating garlic, or taking MSM may help ease the discomfort experienced with arthritis. These contain sulfur, the third most common mineral in our body.

 

Whether a person bathe in it, eat it in foods, or take it as a supplement, sulfur may help a person ease their arthritis pain. It can also be found in many healthy foods, such as eggs, broccoli and garlic.

 

 It has been empirically studied that bathing in mineral has a centuries-long tradition. Two studies stand out when looking at pain relief from arthritis using sulfur. One, conducted in Israel in 1990, showed that soaking in the sulfur rich waters of the Dead Sea gave some relief in arthritis symptoms. Another study, done in 1992 in Russia, showed that sulfur baths considerably lessens pain sensitivity of people stricken with arthritis.  A person may not necessarily travel to Russia to benefit from these baths. Epsom salts, which are readily available, contain both sulfur and magnesium. Both minerals help to reduce joint and muscle pain.

 

 

 Sulfur plays an important role in a person’s body. It is essential in the synthesis of collagen and is an integral part of a person’s hair, skin, nails, and, important for arthritis sufferers, cartilage. Sulfur has properties that may help in dermatitis and other skin conditions. It is also part of the molecule that forms the amino acids methionine, cysteine, and taurine. It is the third most common mineral in the body, after calcium and phosphorus. With this development, it may help reduce some DePuy hip replacement problem.
