This was followed by Maximizing the Arthritis Cure (1998) which I’ll also report on here, treating both books as one. My early reaction was, this is either a public service or a hustle. Written by three different laureled academics and obviously place together by committee, this first book was a huge time best peddler and demanded a sequel. Most of the diet advice was like something I had read twenty years ago. The exercise program ditto. The use of glucosamine and chondroitin was the real difference. In fact, the purpose of the book could be seen as legitimizing the use of these supplements in the treatment of osteoarthritis. Public bought the book in the hope that it would help them with their pain. They also bought the book so that they would be motivated to try glucosamine and chondroitin. Many public understandably would not try the supplements lacking the seal of approval provided by an authoritative book like this. The question is-and it is the huge question-is their program any excellent, or is it just another feel excellent pep talk fronting for another bogus approach? I was a small uncertain since the book jacket was red, white and blue, and we all know the quote about patriotism life “the last refuge of a scoundrel.”
So I tried glucosamine and chondroitin and stayed positively close to their overall program. Two years have passed and although I cannot say for certain, it is my belief that the supplements are valuable. At any rate, my arthritic knee is much improved.
In the follow-up book, the authors give information on other treatments.
I have to say that I reckon they’ve done a positive service in writing these two books. The information about healing in general and about prevention and about the positive effects of exercise and attitude are worthwhile. The authors may have made megabucks (or maybe they didn’t), but I don’t feel they ripped anyone off, on the contrary. I am pleased to be positive even though I still reckon “cure” is probably too strong a word for what their program can do, although I only have my own experience to go on. Their reports of the double blind tests that have been conducted are excellent, but a long way from convincing proof that glucosamine and chrondoitin and exercises can cure osteoarthritis.

After reading this book by Dr. Theodosakis, I recommended it tomy grandmother and 35 year-ancient girlfriend, both of whom haveosteoarthritis. Not only has it lessened grandma’s pain, but also her depression has largely lifted. My friend, who is a fellow registered nurse, was thrilled that she was able to stop taking acetaminophen following her second month of taking glucosamine and chondroitin. She believes the dietary changes she made after reading the book were also helpful toward making her body more supple, like a slinky. I was indeed surprised to find some negative comments written by readers. Perhaps they were victims of the many fraudulent products our there with insufficient quantities of glucosamine and chondroitin in them. I found Dr. Theo’s website to be very helpful in learning more about specific excellent and terrible products. I will continue to recommend this book to anyone and everyone who tells me that they endure from arthritis. There is hope! END

My mother-in-law developed pain in her lower back. She was to the point of riding in the electric carts at the grocery stores. She thought she was going to end up in a wheel chair. The doctor diagnosed it as Degerative Disc Disease. She went to the library to do research and by chance learned “The Arthritis Cure”, & read it. On her next stay to her doctor, he said nothing could be done except pain tablets, and if worsened, surgery. She brought up the book and Glucosamine/Chondroitin. His comeback:”Oh yes, that works real excellent. In fact, in about a month you won’t have to take anymore pain tablets”. She and her husband were quite upset that he would not have told them of this if they had not learned it on their own.
Needless to say, she went on the full dose regimen and two months shortly, she is getting down with Richard Simmons and walking on her treadmill.
My mother-in-law & I are shouting the news from the household tops! I bought her a copy of Dr. Theo’s book as well as the Maximizing journal. She has bought several of the paperback editions and lent them to her friends. Some of them have already been helped also.
Give it a try, it can’t hurt, and may just give you a new rent on life!!!!

I found this book an exceptional presentation on glucosamine, chondroitin, the various surgical options, advice about exercise and diet (the importance of weight loss, etc). For me it seems to be working as advertised. I have osteoarthritus of the hip and knee and am seeing noticeable improvements. I have a friend that is a physical therapist and she has been by glucosamine/chondroitin and has noticed significant improvements in the use of her ankle and her ability to walk. Certainly glucosamine/chondroitin are not replacements for everthing as diet/weight loss are also exceptionally vital. I recommend this book highly.

I injured my knee around Labor Day and four months shortly I had minimal results with physical therapy and NSAIDs. My once active life had stopped, every activity I tried, even walking, aggravated my knee. I started on the Glucosomine and Chondrodin Sulphate program along with the vitamin supplements outlined in the book and had fantastic results. After just a few weeks, I am able to hike and workout again. I feel better than I have in months! I know several friends on Glucosomine, but I felt better with the book outlining the dosage and other vitamins to compliment. I have not needed any NSAIDs since I started this therapy. I like that this program has nearly no side effects and can help my injury lacking surgery. Try it for yourself, what do you have to lose but the pain?
