Arthritis is a common disease among older people,  it is  a joint disorder that involves inflammation. It  causes pain and loss of movement of the affected joints, this disease has over 100  different forms and the most common is osteoarthritis which usually occurs in the hips, knees and hands.

If I am not mistaken my grandmother has arthritis and every time her knees in pain she is restless. She is somehow using ointment to ease the pain but I am not sure how effective it was. When I am still a kid my mother told me not to have wet feet all the time because I will suffer the consequences when I grow old, she said I could have arthritis if I keep continue washing my feet and playing in a dirty canal.  Dunno if it is true but I have learned that arthritis was cause by infection, autoimmune disease, broken bone and tear joints if you want to know more about arthritis just hop in to www.OSC-Ortho.com for better understanding of this disease.

In addition,  it was believed that consumption of foods that are acidic can cause damage to bones and cartilages.  So you better watch out on what you eat, don’t eat too much salty food as it is not just bad for our bones but also for our kidney.  Lack vital nutrients and minerals for our body consumption can also trigger this disease because when our blood is being to acidic the cartilages in the body can dissolve. Eating too much diet foods or junk foods like  canned goods,  coke, processed food and etc. is also a bad habit that we should stop because they are not helpful for our body to be healthy.

Proper diet and exercise can help to avoid arthritis to know more about this disease causes and remedies  follow this link for great resources.

My husband and I bought a new scale when our old one stop working despite of having a new battery.  Our new scale is solar power and we are hoping we can use this longer. What confuses me though when I weigh myself at home my weight is less than when I weigh myself in the gym. It has 1 kilogram difference so I don’t know which one is right, well I guess  scales has different weighing system.

Anyway for your own information there are different scales according to its uses, there are food retail scales that can be used for food, fruits and in the kitchen, weight bathroom scales for fitness and infants, industrial scale for shipping, medical and laboratory scales and special scaled that are used for wrestling and weighing jewelries.

Losing weight is about burning calories more than we eat. So if you are trying to lose weight but you are eating too much it is useless,  you should eat balance diet together with fitness exercise. Some people are using diet pills, spend money on fitness gadgets and there are also some people who are using fat burner like ignite maxx which is stimulant free and contains natural weight loss ingredients.

Fat burner increase your metabolism and burns calories but there are other brand of fat burner that gives side  effects to your stomach so you should be careful in choosing the right brand.  As what I have read ignite maxx uses stimulants that can increase energy and improve stamina and well being.
