Orlando, FL — September 22, 2015 — Gout causes sufferers to experience pain, swelling, and extreme tenderness in the joints. This condition is believed to be caused by the consumption of certain types of food such as seafood, poultry, and meat. While food intake is a risk factor, there are other things that can potentially trigger the development of the condition.
The Arthritis Foundation has revealed the genetic component of gout. The finding that the condition could run in families was based on the large-scale study published in the journal Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases. There are also other factors such as gender and the environment.
According to Chang-Fu Kuo, a PhD candidate at the University of Nottingham, the composition of risk between men and women might be different. However, it is important to note that both genders are equally susceptible to the condition in the presence of family history of the disease.
The Arthritis Foundation describes gout as an inflammatory type of arthritis. It develops once there are high levels of uric acid in the blood or hyperuricemia. Hyperuricemia takes place when there is an accumulation of needle-like urate crystals around the joints. Symptoms include severe pain in the joint of the elbow, knee, ankle, big toe, and hand.
Dr. Kuo conducted a study in Taiwan to determine the highest estimated rates of gout worldwide. It showed that out of 22 million residents, there were 1 million cases of physician-diagnosed gout. It was further found that individuals, regardless of their gender, who had a parent or offspring suffering from gout doubled their risk of the condition than the general population.
The good news is that there are remedies available for the condition. There are medications and there are also natural remedies such as glucosamine, which are believed to help ease the symptoms of gout.
According to research, glucosamine is potentially helpful for reducing inflammation caused by arthritis, and thus, it can potentially reduce the pain linked with gout. Glucosamine supplements are even believed to be as helpful as pain relief drugs for reducing swelling and pain associated with uric acid buildup.
There are many individuals nowadays who report some significant improvements in their arthritis symptoms after using glucosamine supplements. What makes glucosamine even more beneficial is that it doesn’t cause side effects associated with the use of pain relief drugs.
Glucosamine supplements are scattered in the international market nowadays. Experts recommend that sufferers use glucosamine that also contains another natural ingredient called MSM, which is believed to have therapeutic benefits (http://www.amazon.com/Glucosamine-Sulfate-Supplement-2000mg-serving/dp/B0126ZF0B2/).
