>What about powerful curcumin/turmeric supplements? High dose fish oil? Boswellia? Pycnogenol? You could combine some of these or use them alone and possibly get just as good a response from them as you would with NSAIDs, without the unwanted side effects. High dose fish oil, curcumin/turmeric, and Pycnogenol all can have powerful effects on brain function, making you feel and function much better than you would on NSAIDs.
Maybe, it's all rather theoretical due to a general lack of clinical evidence. NSAIDs are clearly effective treatments for painful arthritis which have been studied in many trials. You can't say that about alternative medicine.
