With the recent recall of Vioxx and the current controversies swirling around the use of other COX-2 inhibitor drugs, millions of people are looking for a safer way to relieve their arthritic pain. Now, a new discovery may provide much-needed relief. Written by two cutting-edge researchers and best-selling authors - Drs. Shari Lieberman and Alan Xenakis - "Mineral Miracle" sheds light on the SierraSil mineral deposit and explains how it can relieve joint pain and inflammation naturally. For years, scientists have understood that inflammation causes pain. Laymen know it too, as soon as they experience a painfully swollen bruise or inflamed joint. Only recently, however, has the process of inflammation been linked to the deterioration of tissue, bone and cartilage - and recognised as an underlying cause of heart attack. And while the importance of minerals has been documented for years, it is only now that a naturally occurring blend of minerals has been found to act as a powerful anti-inflammatory that can actually stop or slow down the loss of cartilage. This blend, derived from the SierraSil mineral deposit, is the focus of this important book, which looks at the blend's unique composition, its healing action and its ability to stop pain. While many drugs may appear helpful in the war against pain, all of them have formidable side effects, some of which have proven deadly. For those looking for a simpler solution to a real problem, the "Mineral Miracle" may hold the answer.
