Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that causes the immune system to begin attacking tissues, especially cartilage in the joints. Various joints become red, hot, and swollen. Other symptoms may include inflammation of the eyes, nodules or lumps under the skin, and a general feeling of malaise. Several medications are available. Natural support options include SAM-e, chondroitin, glucosamine and others.

In addition, animal evidence suggests that SAMe may help protect cartilage from damage. " Read More
