Mediterranean ‘Flower’ SINKS Rheumatoid Arthritis Pain?!

By Jack Taylor Posted September 21, 2021

Dear Turapür Today Reader,

When most folks hear the term arthritis, they just assume it’s some aches and pains in the knees, fingers, or wrists.

And no matter what kind of arthritis it is, it means your joints are inflamed.

But if you’re one of the nearly 1.5 MILLION Americans that have been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), you know first-hand that it’s much more than some achy joints.

You see, while the majority of arthritis cases in the U.S. are caused by years of overuse and wear-and-tear on your joints, rheumatoid arthritis is MUCH different… and much more difficult to live with!

RA is an autoimmune disorder, which means your body attacks itself. If you have RA, your body interprets the soft lining around your joints as a threat, similar to a virus or bacteria, and attacks even the healthiest of joints – which can lead to pain in places you never expected.

And because it’s an autoimmune condition, RA can also attack and inflame other areas of your body like your eyes, lungs, and heart!

And with no cure for RA, mainstream solutions range from expensive medications, injections, or simply being relegated to taking over-the-counter pain killers.

But if you suffer from RA, there’s new research around a potent Mediterranean ‘flower’ that could help sink some of your worse symptoms (and pain) of RA!

According to multiple studies, borage seed oil could help you lower the inflammation caused by RA… thus decreasing the amount of pain you’re in.

Borage is an annual herb and flowering plant native to the Mediterranean that contains an omega-6 fatty acid called gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) – which is a known anti-inflammatory that helps regulate your immune system.

But what makes borage seed oil a unique treatment for RA?

According to studies, your body converts GLA into a type of hormone known as a prostaglandin. Prostaglandins are responsible for controlling inflammation. The body usually releases prostaglandins when tissue becomes damaged, such as through an injury.

But in autoimmune conditions like as RA, your body remains in a chronic state of inflammation. Luckily, researchers have found that the GLA in borage seed oil can counteract this and reduce the symptoms associated with RA.

In other words, borage seed oil could help your body better regulate inflammation and sink the nasty symptoms of RA.

Borage seed oil is available at most health food stores as a dietary supplement, often in the form of a soft gel capsule.

If you’ve been diagnosed with RA and are interested in borage seed oil, be sure to have a conversation with your doctor or rheumatologist first… especially if you’re on any prescription medications for RA.

And, with any supplement, be sure to only take the recommended dosage clearly listed on the product label.
