Orlando, FL— March 14, 2016 — Turmeric is one of the oldest and most popular medicinal spices nowadays. It comes in a powder, root, or supplement form, and its use is associated with a range of health benefits. Individuals who are suffering from cartilage problems may also benefit from the use of the spice.
Turmeric’s anti-inflammatories may potentially benefit chondromalacia patella sufferers. This condition develops when the cartilage in the kneecap gets damaged. The kneecap cartilage is considered a natural shock absorber, and it works by protecting the bones from friction during movements.
Unfortunately, the cartilage is susceptible to wear and tear due to overuse or injury. When cartilage damage takes place, it results in the development of the condition. Chondromalacia patella is also known as the patellofemoral pain syndrome.
This condition can affect any gender, but is more prevalent in women and younger adults. Individuals who suffer from the condition may experience stiffness and pain due to excessive use or prolonged sitting. Another symptom is an aching, dull pain in the front of the knee.
What makes the patellofemoral pain syndrome even more debilitating is that the pain can worsen when walking up or down the stairs. It can also be aggravated when kneeling, squatting, and sitting with the knees bent for a prolonged period.
“According to experts, if there is no improvement in the knee pain, sufferers should see their healthcare provider,” said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O’Sullivan.
There are pain management measures that involve the avoidance of movements that can potentially irritate the kneecap. Sufferers should avoid doing full squat exercises with weights. Medications and surgeries are also among the treatment options. Procedures include ones that surgically corrects or aligns the knee.
Rehabilitation may also include doing some strengthening and stretching exercises. There are also inflammatory medications used to help sufferers improve their overall condition. While these medications are useful, sufferers should not forget to satisfy their nutritional needs.
Satisfying nutritional needs as a chondromalacia patella sufferer may include reducing and managing the inflammation levels inside the body. Using turmeric is thought to be one of the best natural ways to reduce inflammation.
Turmeric contains a phytochemical called curcumin, which contains anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties. This spice has been used for thousands of years in fighting a range of conditions.
Today, curcumin supplements are widely available in the market. Many people use this natural alternative to fight a range of conditions. The best ones contain a black pepper extract, which helps increase curcumin absorption inside the body (www.amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-Complex-BioPerine-Bio-availability/dp/B00JA4TLTI/).
