After pain prescriptions and shots, he decided to try a more natural solution. Since he began taking OmegaRx, he has not another flare-up, and is even able to open jars again.   My husband William is 71 years old. He works out every day at the spa – sometimes twice a day. He is very fit for his age and takes no medication. However, he suffers with arthritis. He had two knee replacements in 2009. He was taking lots of Aleve to control the inflammation and pain from the arthritis. He was especially suffering with pain in his hands. He was unable to open a jar. He was also taking a cheap omega-3 he would purchase from Walmart.   On Easter Sunday of 2016, he woke up with his hands so swollen you could not make out his knuckles. He was in excruciating pain. It felt like his hands were broken. He had to have a pain prescription sent out. He slept all day. After a few days, the swelling subsided. He went to a hand specialist and had to have shots in his hands. The shots were so painful that he swore he would never do that again. He also didn't want to start arthritis medication. He wanted to try something natural before getting on medication.   Our son is a doctor and recommended he try [Dr. Sears’ omega-3s](http://www.zonediet.com/shop/omega-3-fish-oil/dr-sears-omegarx2-sport-fish-oil-120-capsules/). I placed the order immediately and he started taking 4 capsules each day. The results were amazing. He still has arthritis, but he has never had another flare-up. He only takes an occasional Aleve when he over-works. His blood work is amazing too! Dr. Sears Zone OmegaRx is the best medicine for his arthritis. He doesn't have to worry about side effects and complications from a pharmaceutical drug. He's even able to open a jar again!   [Omega-3 Fish Oil ](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/topic/omega-3-fish-oil), [Testimonial ](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/topic/testimonial) ### Popular stories [Easy Hearty And Healthy Chili Recipe](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/zone-living-newsletter-articles/easy-hearty-and-healthy-chili-recipe) Nov 01, 2013 [Milk and Milk Substitutes—What You Need to Know](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/zone-living-newsletter-articles/milk-many-types-liquid-nutrition) Apr 05, 2017 [Tasty Recipes in: The Mediterranean Zone](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/zone-living-newsletter-articles/tasty-recipes) Oct 03, 2014 ### Posts by Tags - [Zone Diet (59)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/zone-diet) - [Zone Living (48)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/zone-living) - [Recipes (45)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/recipes) - [Peak Performance (41)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/peak-performance) - [Omega-3 Fish Oil (35)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/omega-3-fish-oil) - [Healthy Eating (30)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/healthy-eating) - [Testimonial (24)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/testimonial) - [Dr. Barry Sears (20)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/dr-barry-sears) - [Healthy Aging (17)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/healthy-aging) - [Polyphenols (17)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/polyphenols) - [Weight Loss (16)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/weight-loss) - [Newsletter Article (15)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/newsletter-article) - [Holidays (14)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/holidays) - [Evidence-Based Wellness (10)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/evidence-based-wellness) - [Childhood Nutrition (9)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/childhood-nutrition) - [Restaurants (8)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/restaurants) - [Zone Cruise (5)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/zone-cruise) - [Food & Nutrition (2)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/food-nutrition) - [Pro-Resolution Nutrition (2)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/pro-resolution-nutrition) - [Exercise (1)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/exercise) - [Fittness (1)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/fittness) - [Fruits & Vegetables (1)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/fruits-vegetables) - [Inflammation (1)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/inflammation) - [Strength Training (1)](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/tag/strength-training) [See all](https://blog.zoneliving.com/zoneliving/zone-living-newsletter-articles/eliminating-arthritis-pain-with-omega-3s#) ### Let Us Know What You Thought about this Post.
