In this video, I want to talk to you about a very important topic: arthritis. This video is for those with both rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
Some people in their 60s, 70s, or 80s all of a sudden lose their hip joint or knee joint, seemingly for no reason. Why does that joint disappear?
Here’s how it works:
Let’s say when you were a kid, and you had a small injury—maybe you tore or injured your joint. Damaged pieces of that joint can get trapped there. Your immune system then tries to attack that joint because it thinks it’s foreign material.
Your immune system can have this response decades after this injury—often right after a stressful event. In turn, this develops into an autoimmune condition. Instead of cleaning up the damaged joint pieces, it attacks the whole joint. This causes constant inflammation.
How can chicken soup help this whole problem? It actually doesn’t have to do with the vegetables. There are small amounts of cartilage and collagen in the chicken soup.
The thing is, this cartilage in chicken soup doesn’t help rebuild your joints. Instead, it acts as a decoy in the body to keep your immune system from attacking your healthy joints.
This allows your joint inflammation to go down, which gives your joints time to heal.
If you’re not a fan of chicken soup, you can also use a collagen supplement called undenatured type-II collagen, or UC-II. You can find this online or in health food stores.
This will help deplete the particular antibodies that keep attacking your joints.
