Chronic Joint Pain, Positive For RA And Sjorgens, Want To Go For Herbal Treatment. Will Instaflex Help?

I am 49 years old and have had joint pain for approx 20 years. I have had tests for RA and Sjorgens which both have indicated I have both. I am now getting worse pain and pretty much consistent and I am about to see a rhuematologist for RA. I would prefer to go the herbal route. Would Instaflex the suplement be good for RA? I am active (walking for an hour each day) and have 3 young kids and work as a district manager for a retail company.

Hello,

I have studied your case with diligence.

Yes you can take instaflex but it may not be sufficient for rheumatoid arthritis.

NSAIDs, DMARDs (disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs) are sometimes prescribed in more severe cases.

There is good role of diet and achieve correction through it,for details you can directly contact on my profile
