Hi,

My name is Marilyn. My very good friend and neighbor was diagnosed

with RA about 15 years ago. She went from being very mobile to being

in severe pain, it seemed like it was overnight. I saw it in her

walk and in her face.

The last time I told this story my motives were misconstrued. That's

too bad because the only money and work it takes is on the sufferer

of RA. Saves money and takes VERY hard work.

Anyway let me continue. My friend's brother is a very smart man.

He's an attorney who likes to study alternative medicine. He told

his sister that he thought, based upon their family history of

arthritis, there is a food allergy in the family. The food....dairy.

Dairy is what comes from the cow, not eggs or mayonnaise. He

suggested that she give up all dairy and cleanse her system of dairy

which is stored in the fat cells. The fat cells take a long time to

clean out so she would have to stay ~completely~ dairy free for a

long time.

My friend who respects her brother's opinion thought that she would

try it. It turned out to be one of the hardest things she ever did

because forms of dairy are in all kinds of foods.

Onward....she kept dairy from her diet for months. The pain lessened

and lessened. She was free from dairy for about 9 months and still

had some pain in her foot. She spoke to her brother about this and

he reviewed her diet. She was eating a hamburger for lunch every

day. He suggested she stop the beef every day. She did and became

pain free.

To this day she is pain free unless she starts to saturate her

system with dairy or beef again. She knows, by her pain, when she is

taking her diet for granted.

I witnessed this.

My sister had a friend who was overcome with pain from RA at an

early age. She suggested to her friend to contact my friend. She in

turn gave up dairy. She is pain free.

A man in a deli was talking about his pain from RA. My friends

brother told him about his sister. Many months later this man saw my

friends brother again and said to him " you saved my life. " He gave

up dairy.

My friends mother suffered from a different form of arthritis and

had it for many years. She found some relief by giving up dairy from

her diet but her arthritis was too far advanced for her to become

pain free.

This is not about having a little butter on your bread, it's about

giving up all dairy. Reading labels. Dairy is also in margarine so

be careful when substituting margarine for butter.

My friend can now have dairy occasionally. I don't know about the

other 2 people who were helped by this.

If giving up dairy helps one person here it's worth every word I've

written.

My friend also had psoriasis. When she gave up dairy her psoriasis

went away. My sister's friend was encouraged by the story because

she realized that when she ate cheese her psoriasis got worse. I

don't know about the man in the deli.

Not one part of giving up dairy is easy. It takes hard work and a

change of diet that is never easy.

Hope this encourages someone to look carefully at their diet to see

if dairy is a big part of their diet. Maybe this can help someone.

One more thing about the subject of dairy. We are the only species

to drink another animals milk. Not only that, we are the only

species who continue to drink milk after weaning. Just something to

think about....

Marilyn
