Mothers to be have to make sure not only that they remain healthy, but protect the health of their growing child. Many future mothers have to deal with joint pain during pregnancy and they need to find safe ways to control pain without medication and chemicals that might pose risks for the health of the child. Some pain medications claim to be "least likely to harm" or the "least invasive". Pain relievers taken orally have to travel through the bloodstream and they reach the fetus as well. If we take medicine over a longer period into our bodies it is accumulating the chemicals and it is more likely to have unintended consequences. For this reason many women with joint pain during pregnancy are turning to alternative and natural remedies, such as taking vitamins and supplements as well as eating certain foods that help ease the pain. Lifestyle has also a great influence on pain of the joints. If you are overweight it is important to start losing weight or at least control your weight during pregnancy. Some regular exercises can also have beneficial effects as they will help keep joints flexible and strengthen the muscles that support joints. Following an anti-inflammatory diet is also a key factor. The right natural supplements can help ease pain and provide an extra relief that drugs can't. The most recommended natural supplements to relieve joint pain during pregnancy include: - Glucosamine sulfate - Chondroitin sulfate - Omega-3 - Vitamin D3 - Vitamin E - SAMe - Calcium - MSM - Turmeric - Ginger - Devil's claw - Green tea - Bromelain - Stinging nettle Glucosamine and Chondroitin for Joint Pain These two supplements are among the best alternative approaches to joint pain during pregnancy and arthritis pain in general. Glucosamine is a compound naturally found in the body's joint cartilage that has the role to keep it lubricated and healthy. The shells of crab, lobster, and shrimp are used to extract the glucosamine for these supplements. Glucosamine is proved to relieve arthritis joint pain, help slow deterioration of cartilage, and improve joint mobility. Chondroitin is also naturally found in bone and cartilage. Chrondroitin sulfate supplements are derived from pork byproducts or cow trachea. Chondroitin is proved to block enzymes that break down cartilage, to enhance the shock-absorbing properties of collagen, to reduce inflammation and pain in the joints, to help cartilage retain water and keep joints lubricated, slow progression of osteoarthritis, and improve joint function and even reverse cartilage loss.
