Because you wanted a steak?

Honestly, I felt so good I didn't want one. If you make real food, and don't try to mimic meat with fake shit, it's not hard and the food is good.

I think it was just a PITA with my wife and daughter not eating that way. My wife can't eat gluten, so if I make a separate diet at home we have to pretty much make 3 different meals.

When I just eat real food and cut out all sugar and alcohol I feel awesome. I don't know if I could ever cut out all meat.

the carbs cause the inflamation

My allergist claims eliminating foods you specially get inflammation from, including food allergies/sensitivities can aggravate arthritis and/or create inflammation. Can only be found through blood work. Every body is different but carbs turn to sugar and sugar is commonly inflammatory.

Where's your arthritis?

Drink some aloe vera gel, a tiny bit in some water, turmeric help inflammation. Aloe Barbendensis Miller has the most active compounds for arthritis is naturally anti-inflammatory. Need at least 80% strength. MSM gels also are anti-inflammatory. Stay away from creams or gels with parabens used a preservatives. I don't care what NIH says about a little won't harm, they're in so many things it's not just a little anymore. Was a WSJ article about them where I think it was Walmart told J&J to remove them, as they were being found in people with breast and skin cancer. Lot of companies have been removing them.

All plants that in the nightshade family are inflammatory. Tomatoes, eggplant for two. I'd rather get tested though 'cuz it can vary from person to person.

Oh and what kind of arthritis is it? There's different kinds.

The Mrs. Sprat Diet?

Arthritis is in my hands and knees.

Never tried aloe. But I take glucosamine and chondroitin with MSM. Does topical application make any difference?

I haven’t had it formally diagnosed but I don’t have the blood markers for rheumatoid. I’m assuming just standard osteo arthritis.

What she said about doing the blood test to see what your food allergies are is really important as I mentioned earlier. There is actually another way to do it but it is most likely unavailable there. What she said about tumeric is right on the money. I use the curcumin extract powder that I buy in bulk and mix with broth. If you do that and eat red or black cherries you will notice within a few days the difference. I have it in my hands as well from years of lifting and martial arts

You might be referencing some older information that has since been proven false. Not trying to be a jerk. But the most recent meta-study on tumeric/curcumin looks at >120 different scientific studies and includes 164 references. Please take a look at the meta-study below in the link and the included references if you're curious. Here's the result:

Again, I'm not trying to be a dick. Just offering what I've found to be the most recent scientific information about the subject. If you have more recent contradictory studies/information, I'd gladly refer to that, feel free to offer it up.

Science is a cruel mistress.

Wish I could help Buehler, arthritis pain is no fun.

Have you tried Diclofenac? It's topical ibuprofen. You get topical absorption with limited systemic side effects of NSAIDs, like GI irritation and narrowing of your afferent arterioles (which drops your GFR).

I have not. Does it take a prescription?

Yeah. Trade name is Voltaren.
