and several do seem to help. Fish oils, for example, have omega-3 fatty acids,
which have potent anti-inflammatory effects as well as other health benefits.
Others are glucosamine and chondroitin and <A path="/webmdhttp://www.webmd.com/drugs/drug-1092-Evening+Primrose+Oil+Oral.aspx?drugid=1092&drugname=Evening+Primrose+Oil+Oral" object_type="" keywordsetid="5149" keywordid="20054" href="http://www.webmd.com/drugs/drug-1092-Evening+Primrose+Oil+Oral.aspx?drugid=1092&drugname=Evening+Primrose+Oil+Oral" externalid="3FF27CC109544CC8" directive="friendlyurl" crosslinkid="31468" chronic_id="">evening primrose oil</A>, which is
a lipoic acid supplement that helps nerves function properly. It can be very

But
they are potent medications that really do have impact -- both positive and
negative. For example, people may not know that supplements such as fish oil or
garlic or vitamin E are blood thinners, and if you take them together or with
other blood thinners you can have problems.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/B3468BB8-A9AD-4AD8-BDFD-04108E90CEBF/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
