I am 56 years old and have been living with RA for one year. The older it seems I get the more health problems I have. I have to say RA has been the worst. I started treatment on Plaquenil and an anti-inflammatory  drug which seem to help with the pain for about 8 months. The pain has gotten wor...

    Perry,

     

    Thanks for the support!!! A friend of mine has been on the Monte Vie Juice for 8 months. She has osteoarthritis and the inflammation and nodules in her hands have completely gone away. She swears it worked better for her than meds. I read the recipe for raisins and gin. I don't think I could handle the gin.I never could eat Christmas goodies cooked with rum or bourbon. I'm glad your back is better. Have a Happy New Year also.

    Hi Lojo ,actually when you marrinate gold raisins in gin in a shallow glass bowl ,raisins just covered with gin, leave for 2 weeks [covered with cheeze cloth] I doubt if thers any alcoholl left you cant taste the gin[i hate gin] there must be something in the gin +raison combination,bye for now ,be carefull of some antiinflamatories ,I ended up with start of osteoporosis which is caused by some antiinflamatories

    I'm glad to know the raisins don't tast like gin. I'm going to have to make a recipe and see for myself. Today's a yuk day. I think every joint in my body aches. I took my grandson's to see Waterhorse(Lochness Monster). It was really good.  I strongly suggest it if you haven't seen it. When my grandchildren visit, they keep me upbeat. Have a good day!

    Hi Lolo , The secret grab hold of something and beleive in it ,whilst I am in pain 0---------------------10 I have fortunatley got this down to 2 ,and I spend a lot of time researching RA ,and have found hope and research is the best path to travel ,whilst I am on the gin and raisons, mono .vie juice. I have been researching further ,the relationship between human cells that are perhaps causes of this painfull illness ,I found simularities to cancer cells[sick] I also found that the the Ph level normal would 7.35 ,and sick cells only survive in high acid levels . There are only a few substaces that reach these cells.  water--potassium--sugar--cesium-------rubidium . Oxygen cant get there due to the low millivolts of these cells [40or lower] normal 90 millivolts or little higher,during a lot of time, I found about these people that live over 100yrs ,there only major diff was there pure unpolution and the water ,the later being the most significant ,these people live on the lower slopes of the himalayes ,there water has over 85 ellements and amongst these ellements is cesium and rubidium ,I beleive to mayjor elliments to increase the millvolts. You can buy the minaral salt from this area said to be 250million yrs or more,before these mountains where pushed up from the sea landlocking a huge inland sea which eventually was this massive minaral and salt rock ,Go to your local health care shop ask for Himalayan Salt. I went dancing last week ,thought id pay the next morning ,i was as good as gold ,slight hangover take care and have hope

    Thanks for the information.I'll have to get some of the salt you talked about.I started methotrexate last week. So far so good,however, I was only pain free for 3 days. I hope the pain free days increase as my dosage level increases. I'm so happy to hear you're doing well. I haven't gone dancing in a long time. It sounds like your natural herbs and juice have turned back the clock for you( 40 instead of your youthful 60). Next time dance an irish jig for me!! Take care and have a great week.
