Apples and arthritis.



Apples and arthritis



These guys have tons of unique compounds for effective management in arthritis.

             The peel is highly concentrated in something called ursolic acid, a very well documented flavonoid to be a potent anti arthritic.

             Apples also have apigenin a key fighter for inflammation.  Apigenin is so powerful a recent study found it to suppresses lupus by inhibiting autoantigen presentation.

             Lastly apples contain luteolin a bioflavonoid that acts as an antioxidant, protecting the body from free-radical damage and helping to slow down the ageing process. Luteolin also possesses impressive anti-inflammatory, and immune-modulating properties, its very good to dampen down any tissue mediated autoimmune attacks on joint tissues.
