Professor Marc Cohen Head of Complementary Medicine at RMIT University said 'Many people with Arthritis turn to complementary therapies to relieve their symptoms but navigating the myriad of natural remedies can be confusing".
'It is not often that a natural remedy can be recommended based on well conducted clinical studies with consistently positive results. Rosehip is one such remedy that has proven to be both safe and efficacy in clinical trials".
'The Arthritis Australia Complementary Therapies Information Sheet provides clear and concise information on which type of complementary therapy could be effective for your Arthritis".
'Safe and effective natural remedies such as Rosehip should be considered as first-line therapies for arthritis".
'Certainly any therapy that can reduce patients' reliance on anti-inflammatory drugs will help reduce the risk of serious side effects and improve the quality of life of arthritis sufferers '.
Rose-Hip Vital™ Director, Colin Diamond said the addition of Rosehip to the respected list added to mounting clinical and scientific evidence for Rosehip as a natural anti-inflammatory.
Mr Diamond said the addition of Rosehip to the Arthritis Australia information sheet would help sufferers find effective relief for their Arthritis.
He said Rosehip is gaining significant interest from the international medical community for the natural relief of both Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis.
'Rosehip was also recently listed as effective by Arthritis Research United Kingdom and is currently undergoing further clinical trials, to support the already extensive list of scientific research" Mr Diamond said.
'Just as importantly Rose-Hip Vital™ is offering effective relief to the thousands of Australians already using it."
Many Rosehip studies specific to Osteoarthritis (OA) have also shown promising results, including a study published in Scandinavian Journal Of Rheumatology (2005) showing that 82 per cent of OA patients reported a reduction in pain after 3 weeks of treatment with a patented Rosehip powder.
In addition to the results for Osteoarthritis (OA), a study has been published in Phytomedicine (2010) showing that Rosehip powder in a patented form may be effective for controlling some of the symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis.
