Montreal Chiropractic Spinal Care Treatment Plan: Nutritional Tea!
Drink your way to health? Yes, when the drink is tea! Skeletal pain arising from aging-related conditions responds well to muscle and joint boosters like those in green tea. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic has nutritional tips like drinking green tea to our Montreal chiropractic patients.
AGING-RELATED SKELETAL, CARTILAGE, AND JOINT DISEASES
Skeletal risks like disc height loss and changes like the two joint and muscle diseases called osteoarthritis and sarcopenia come with aging. A new study described the interaction of height loss and vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women. The researchers decided that age rather than the height loss was suggested to be the superior method of determining vertebral fracture risk. (1) Spinal osteoarthritis was associated with stature loss in postmenopausal women, a situation documented to reduce quality of life. (2) Cartilage is the sufferer of these diseases’ inflammatory and degenerative processes. The loss of strength and muscle mass that accompanies sarcopenia necessitates attention to quantity and quality of skeletal muscle mass which is where where green tea comes into play. Green tea contains catechins that help maintain healthy joints and skeletal muscle by reducing inflammatory mediators. (3) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic hopes you may enjoy some beneficial green tea!
NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS
Green tea comes in a variety of forms. An additional new article writes that knee osteoarthritis patients were helped by a combination of curcuminoids, collagen and green tea extract which exhibited anti-inflammatory properties. The researchers suggested that natural ingredients have a rational role in the management of osteoarthritis. (4) Another natural option: spearmint tea! A report of how spearmint teas influenced knee osteoarthritis discovered that a commercial spearmint tea improved stiffness and physical disability while a spearmint tea brewed from a high-rosmarinic acid (high-rosA) variety significantly reduced pain. (5) Rosmarinic acid is taken from the woody, perennial herb, rosemary. It is a polyphenolic compound with antioxidant properties. Polyphenols are written to be anti-cancer, anti-tumor cell proliferation, anti-apoptosis (cell death), anti-metastasis, and anti-inflammatory. Rosmarinic acid is found in plant species like the mint. (6) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is on the hunt for some high-rosA spearmint tea to add to the Montreal chiropractic treatment plan.
