Arthritis Causes

The exact cause of arthritis is not fully known at this point, however, we are well aware of the factors which may contribute to arthritis: poor nutrition, stress, obesity and jobs which require repetitive movements of a particular joint socket. This includes clerical workers, computer programmers, warehouse people, and sports people. For example football players tend to develop arthritis in their knees and ankles as a consequence of injuries sustained to these parts. There is evidence however, that suggests that physically active people who are not injured have a lower risk of arthritis. Some studies have suggested that gout may sometimes be a contributing factor to causing arthritis.

As we age our bodies produce more cortisol (an inflammatory stress hormone) and less growth hormone (tissue regeneration hormone).  Eating a lot of foods comprised of simple sugars and meats cause our bodies to exhibit an immune response (stress and cortisol) and our bodies begin to show inflammation and sometimes headaches.  We should be aware of this correlation between arthritis and diet.  If this is our predominant diet then we can expect to be ill a great deal of the time, with the symptoms getting worse as we get older.

If we have a large waist circumference (a lot of belly fat) then we are heading in the direction of eventual arthritis conditions.  A lack of moderate exercise, both cardio and resistance training are also contributing factors (will actively contribute to arthritis.)

We might try to observe if we are performing any unnatural feeling repetitive movements, and see if we can find a more ergonomic solution.  Sustained repetitive movements of course lead to carpal tunnel syndrome, bursitis, arthritis and a lot of other itis’es.  We will see that first by arthritic inflammation, arthritis swelling and arthritis pain.

Therefore if we are suffering from any form of arthritis, it is in our best interest to see how we may best modify our current activities (proper ergonomics, nutrition and exercise) to reduce the causes of arthritis from manifesting in our bodies.
