I don't know about any wrotten research. I know caffeine will make the
arthritis worse. The worst of it is that caffeine is a painkiller - it is in
almost every cold and flu OTC med. It kills your pain and the lift makes you
feel the pill is working. But the next day the pain of arthritis is worse.
I go by what my body tells me as much as I can. Got rid of GERD (caused by
years of NSAIDs for arthritis) by eating apples, celery and especially cabbage.
It really works! I used to wake up choking in my own stomach acid. Go get a
small handful of cabbage from the refrigerator, chomp it down and go back to a
sound sleep. My dr prescribed Nexium, which I refuse to take. I don't need it
anyway now. Also some herbal teas help (I like shavegrass, nettle and mint).
I have asked on the board where I found out about it. I will pass on any onfo I
get.
I know this - if I even drink 1 cup of decaf coffee, I feel like my joints are
filled with ground glass for a week or two. I found out that Barq's root beer
has caffiene in it....guess how? It HURTS! Even decaf green tea hurts - so no
kombucha either. But I am not fond of pain, so I watch what I ingest.

Gayla - Is there any research linking coffee to increased arthritis pain? I
have a friend who has horrible pain AND drinks a lot of coffee. If I tell her
to stop the coffee on faith I know she won't believe me. But having realized I
cannot tolerate nightshade plants this year I totally believe food items can
mess with you.
Thanks,
Jaxi

Well, I don't think I've ever heard anyone say they had to stop
coffee before! I know coffee drinkers that took CMO and never said they quit.

Myristin CMO is animal based, too. They say:
We're the family company of the discoverer of cetyl myristoleate
(CMO), Harry
W. Diehl. EHP Products has been marketing CMO since 1996, and is
the only
company in the world to offer a 40% CMO softgel.
