Is Arthritis Preventable?
You can’t always prevent arthritis, but there are a few healthy habits you can practice to reduce your risk. One thing you can do is consume more fish. Fish are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, a healthy polyunsaturated fat. Omega-3s have several health benefits, and they can reduce inflammation in the body, lowering your arthritis risk. You should also focus on exercise, which not only takes the stress of excess weight off your joints, but also strengthens the muscles around the joints. Try your best to avoid injury. When you injure your joints, you can damage the cartilage and cause it to wear out more quickly.
Understanding Histamine Intolerance
Frequent headaches, flushing, digestive upset, or allergy-like symptoms without a clear cause may point to histamine intolerance. Histamine is a natural compound involved in immunity, digestion, and nerve signaling. It’s found in certain foods and produced by the body, then broken down by enzymes like DAO and HNMT. When histamine builds up faster than it’s cleared, symptoms occur. Common signs include headaches, rashes, nasal congestion, bloating, diarrhea, and anxiety. Causes may include low DAO activity, gut imbalances (like SIBO), mold exposure, or high-histamine foods such as aged cheeses, fermented products, alcohol, and processed meats. Identifying triggers and supporting healthy histamine metabolism—often with diet and gut support—can bring significant relief.
Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures offer a secure, comfortable alternative to traditional dentures. Anchored to dental implants placed in the jawbone, they provide improved stability, allowing for easier chewing, clearer speech, and greater confidence when smiling or laughing. Unlike removable dentures, implant-supported options won’t shift or slip, eliminating the need for adhesives. They also help preserve jawbone density by stimulating bone tissue, which can prevent the sunken facial appearance associated with tooth loss. Over time, patients often experience better oral health and comfort. With proper care, these dentures are long-lasting and enhance quality of life by combining function, durability, and a natural look.

Suffering from Arthritis?
Physiotherapy is highly effective in managing arthritis by improving joint mobility, reducing pain, and strengthening muscles to better support affected joints. It employs techniques such as manual therapy, heat/cold application, and targeted exercises to alleviate discomfort and manage inflammation. Physiotherapy also enhances posture, balance, and body mechanics, helping individuals perform daily activities with less strain. A tailored plan addresses the specific type and severity of arthritis, promoting long-term joint health and preventing further damage. Consulting a qualified physiotherapist ensures a safe, personalized approach to improve overall function and quality of life.
