Author Phyllis Eisenstein, a long-time sufferer of inflammatory arthritis, had been an exemplary patient who carefully followed all of the drug therapies prescribed for her. Unfortunately, as soon as her body built up a tolerance to any medication, the pain would return. Potential drug toxicity and severe side effects simply became a part of her existence. The author decided that if there was a better way to stop the pain, she would find it. And to her credit - and amazement - she found a safe, reliable, and natural way to stop the agony of this inflammatory disease.Here, then, is the compelling story of this revolutionary breakthrough in natural pain management - from Ms. Eisenstein's first encounter with inflammatory arthritis to her work with Dr. Scheiner; from the first discovery of pantothenic acid to the reasons why it was so long ignored. Also included are suggested dosage regimens, and adjunctive usage, as well as advice on working with your doctor.
