certo for pain?

[Guest guest]

I'm curious if anyone has used certo (pectin) for their pain? There

are no studies of it (as there is no money to be made by a

pharmaceutical corporation), but many people have said that it helped.

Here is what i got from About.com:

“Many patients who suffered severe pain from various types of

arthritis were at the end of their ropes; traditional medicine,

including prescription drugs, had been ineffective in relieving their

discomfort. Therefore, as a last resort, they tried Certo †" and it

worked.

Although some folks added a tablespoonful (or a packet) to coffee, tea

or orange juice once or twice a day (with good results), most readers

indicated that they achieved maximum benefit by mixing one to three

tablespoons of Certo in a glass of unsweetened grape juice once or

twice a day. (The amount can be varied according to the severity of

symptoms.)

Within a week, most arthritis sufferers experienced significant relief

of pain. They then either reduced the dose or discontinued Certo

altogether until they had another flare-up of pain.â€
