so far, I take:

- a glass of bourbon to lower the risk of rheumatoid arthritis
- a glass of white wine to reduce risk of other inflammatory processes, such as cardiovascular disease
- 9 gin soaked raisins for the flu
- a glass of red wine for reducing bloodclotting
- a glass of beer for help to promote blood vessel dilation, sleep, and urination
- a glass of vodka to treat certain cancers
- a glass of whiskey & a spoon of honey and lemon to soothe a sore throat.
- a glass of sherry to increase the body's production of “good” cholesterol

I am now as healthy a horse, the drawback is, I have to go to these meetings every day.

I guess my 65 year old father, nearly crippled by the disease, must be part of the other 50%.

Bummer.

Rheumatoid Arthritis (despite its name) is actually an auto-immune disorder that affects the joints.
