Hello! You should be very careful with taking products that claim to be 100% natural in relieving of pain and inflammation in arthritis. Unfortunately there are many products that could harm your health and should not be taken without consulting your doctor first. I think you can try with diet. Well balanced diet, full of Omega-3 fatty oil will help you in relieving your symptoms of arthritis. I would suggest salmon, sardines, halibut and other cold-water fish at least three times per week. You can also try with a special cream that contains capsaicin which is easily absorbed through the skin and reduces inflammation.
