Natural Help for Rheumatoid Arthritis

A study of rheumatoid arthritis patients conducted at the Charite University
Medical Center in Berlin, showed patients made significant improvements in
their condition, after using capsules made of rose hip powder for six
months.
Professor Stefan Willich, who co-led the study, said "Rheumatoid arthritis
is one of the most difficult medical conditions I'm aware of. It's a tough
disease which makes it all the more remarkable to find such beneficial
effects from this natural remedy."
Half of the patients were treated with a rose hip remedy called LitoZin,
which is made from rose hips, while the other half received a placebo.
Both groups continued taking their usual medication. The group taking the
rose hip remedy saw significant improvements in pain and discomfort, but
there was no change in the group taking a placebo.
Experts hope to conduct more extensive trials to see if the results are
confirmed, and to see if there are any side effects to the rose hip powder.
