Acusil Can Compliment Your Existing Bursitis Treatment Program

Alternative therapies are very useful, especially in the management of pain and inflammation commonly experienced by bursitis sufferers. Many patients are recommended to use nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as Ibuprophen and Acetaminophen, for such symptoms. However, the regular use of these popular over-the-counter medicines has been associated with ulcers and other disturbances of the GI tract. Diet and nutritional supplementation programs rich in anti-inflammatory oils and herbs has proved far more advantageous to one's overall health than these medicines.

Acusil contains supplements proven to strengthen and tone specific body systems; namely those which encompass inflammatory, immunological, and pain response. The ingredient list includes:

Methylsulfonylmethane, or MSM, is a sulfur-containing compound that can relieve pain, decrease inflammation and increase blood flow to injured areas, including the bursae.

Curcumin (Curcuma longa) is one of the best known and heavily researched anti-inflammatory compounds, and is the main active ingredient in the herb turmeric; an herb which has been used extensively by naturopathic physicians for bursitis treatment.

Willow Bark Extract (Salix alba) contains anti-inflammatory and pain relieving compounds (like salacin) from which aspirin (ASA) is derived. Aspirin is a commonly administered nonsteroidal anti-Inflammatory used for the many negative symptoms associated with bursitis.

Boswellia serrata (Indian frankincense) is another pain relieving, anti-inflammatory herb with a safe pharmacologic profile.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale) acts as a broad based anti-inflammatory and analgesic agent, and much like boswellia, ginger inhibits 5-lipoxygenase, distinguishing these herbs form NSAIDs.

When used in conjunction with a diet abundant in vitamins A and C, calcium, magnesium, essential oils, and B-vitamin compounds, Acusil accurately addresses the nutritional concerns of this condition; providing reductions in both the discomfort of bursitis's more troublesome symptoms and duration of individual recovery.
