\"OneA new study from Iceland and Sweden, and published in JAMA<\/em> reveals one factor that can increase the risk of arthritis by a scary 36%.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, by managing this factor, you may be able to avoid arthritis flare-ups.<\/p>\n

To get their data, they analyzed information collected by a population- and sibling-matched retrospective study performed in Sweden between 1981 and 2013.<\/p>\n

The subjects included 106,464 people with stress-related disorders, 1,064,640 people who matched them on most characteristics but who were free from stress-related conditions, and 126,652 siblings of people from both groups.<\/p>\n

They also used the National Patient Register to identify cases of stress-related conditions and autoimmune diseases.<\/p>\n

During the 10-year follow-up period, people with stress diagnoses were 36% more likely develop an autoimmune disorder when compared their peers without stress diagnoses.<\/p>\n

Those with posttraumatic stress disorder were 46% more likely to develop these conditions compared to their peers, and more than twice as likely to have three or more autoimmune conditions as compared to those without stress-related conditions.<\/p>\n

Post-traumatic stress disorder was the most damaging of all the stress-related conditions.<\/p>\n

The study is disturbing as it shows that, on top of a condition like post-traumatic stress disorder, which is already life altering, you are at an increased risk of developing another life-altering condition, like rheumatoid arthritis.<\/p>\n

The authors speculated that this could be due to a combination of increased cortisol levels and increased circulating pro-inflammatory cytokines, both of which drastically increase the risk of arthritis.<\/p>\n

Most of us who have suffered from arthritis can, however, bear witness to the fact that symptoms often worsen when we\u2019re under a lot of stress. The lowering cortisol level with the use of simple relaxation exercises can be very beneficial to arthritis, even if you don\u2019t suffer stress disorders.<\/p>\n

This is actually one part of the 3-step strategy that I used to completely reverse my arthritis in 21 days. Learn how to follow my footsteps here\u2026<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
