I'm seeking a professional opinion on
possible links between dietary supplements
and inflammation or other underlying
aggravants of spinal / radicular pain.
The specific supplements I refer to are
those intended to modulate the body's
production of certain hormones (growth
hormone, testosterone) such as l-arginine,
l-glutamine, etc., antioxidants, or
anti-inflammatories like fish oil.
I have taken a bunch of supplements of one
kind or another over the past year and
want to ensure that they aren't
contributing to (or have caused ) the spinal
stenosis that I have recently been
diagnosed with.
