NSAID alternative?

I was looking for more information about alternative medicines to treat the AS disease when I came across Dr. Michael Eades blog. He talked about experimenting for himself a very interesting combination of krill oil, curcumin and ProOmega to obtain the same anti-inflammatory effect of NSAID pills.

"I take two ProOmega caps made by Nordic Naturals along with two krill oil caps (all krill oil originates in one place–Neptune Technologies–so they are all the same. Mine comes from Thorne.) along with a 500 mg curumin capsule (curcumin is a potent anti-inflammatory derived from turmeric). This combo I take the same way as I did the Advil: before if I remember; after if I forget. If anything it works better for me than the 800 mg ibuprofen without the potential for GI problems or heart attack. And not only does it not have the potential for causing these problems, it actually prevents these and many other disorders, so healthwise it’s really a win/win."
Right now I am already taking 4g of Salmon Oil. I will try to add ProOmega caps and curcumin to the mix and see how it goes. Hopefully, this will make me stop reaching for those bad bad Ibuprofen pills.
