Snack food strains arthritis symptoms

Intestine bacteria seem to be the driving force behind inflammation that leads to pain and painful tears of the bones of overweight people.

Osteoarthritis was long assumed to be the result of unnecessary stress in knots and that weight loss can prevent the situation.

But the new study, published today by Rochester Medical Center University, suggests that balancing utero bacteria with a parabiotic addition turned symptoms into mice even if their weight stood the same.

The head of the study, Michael Zuscik, said the crack is like a pillow and lubricant, supporting the common movements of friction.

When you lose it, it's on bone, stone on stone. It's the end of the line and you have to replace the whole union. The prevention of this is us, as osteoarthrite researchers, trying to keep that click”, he said.

Researchers have fed rats on a high - fat diet in fast foods. After just 12 weeks, rats became obese and diabetes, doubling their fat in the body compared with rats who had been fed with low fat diets.

Their columns were derived from pro-inflammatory bacteria, and they almost completely lacked some useful, probiotic bacteria, such as the extra bifidobateria of yogurt.

The changes in mouse - intestine microbiomas were matched by signs of inflammation, including knees.

Otherwise, there is no treatment to reduce osteoarthritis progress, but this study is in the phase of developing therapy to treat the disease.
