What is arnica found in Be gone™ Sore Muscles?
Arnica is a perennial, herbaceous plant with yellow or orange flowers that’s native to North America and most of Europe, with some species growing in India, Far East Russia and Japan. It’s been a player in traditional herbal medicine for centuries — particularly the Arnica montana species, which grows in Europe. That’s the species you’re most likely to encounter in commercial products.
Modern uses of arnica include the treatment of muscle pain (myalgia), joint pain (arthralgia), inflammation and bruising.
While generally safe and arguably effective when applied topically, arnica is no delicate flower. The herb contains a toxin called helenalin, which is deadly if consumed in large quantities. Arnica can be used to flavor food, but some countries have banned culinary use entirely, in an attempt to prevent accidental poisoning.
Chiropractor Candice Price, DC, states: “Arnica is a remedy that’s been used for centuries for a reason. There must be something to it that’s beneficial.”
There are about 150 different bio-active components in arnica,” Dr. Price adds. “So, there are a lot of chemicals in there that have varying effects.”
While researchers have examined many of these components in isolation, Dr. Price explains that we haven’t necessarily studied the way these components come together in arnica to work on a human cell.
“Most of that research has been done in laboratory settings, on cells that have been taken from humans,” she says. “They’re just starting human research in a clinical setting.
