Agreed. I have been studying fish oil and coconut oil at great length recently due to affects it had when I was trying to repair gut issues. Many websites give the positive effects of the omega-3's and the MCT's from Cocnut oil, but leave out important facts such as fish oil being a blood thinner and anticoagulant. This can prevent wounds from healing and even causing significantly greater damage. In my opinion, people should start with topical treatments for arthritis first, such as blue-emu or penetrex cream, as it is safer (not entirely safe, but much safer) than ingesting anything that is a COX-1 or COX-2 inhibitor, or that acts as a blood thinner. I mention Cox-1/2 because many other supplements are in that category (Curcummin, Aloe and many others) but people may not understand what that can mean for them. A lot of folks take Aloe for Arthritis, but not everyone should. It depends heavily on your gut lining and health. I am reaching a point where I can probably debunk most of the health websites and I might make some youtube videos on the topic, since many of these sites are harming people by not giving them all the facts. NIH being the number one offender. For some time, I thought those articles were vetted and peer reviewed. A few of them are, but most are not. Anyone can publish write-ups on PubMed it turns out.
