Guest guest Posted May 8, 2006 Report Posted May 8, 2006 My mother is using grape juice and sure jell for her arthritis. She says it works and I have seen that she is now able to open her hands up now. She could not open them before, she is 89. I was having a bit of muscle pain from starting on a new exercise program...I tried her grape juice and sure jell and the grape juice made me ill...grape juice is not too good for my mold sensitivity. Since you posted this, I am wondering if it is something that both juices have in them that controls the pain?? > > http://health.ivillage.com/eating/ewproduce/0,,bw_938pbnwb,00.html? > dst=rss|wb > Quote

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 If I am correct, it has apple pectin in it..it is used to make jelly. One can purchase it in the canning section in the grocery store. > > > > My mother is using grape juice and sure jell for her arthritis. > > She says it works and I have seen that she is now able to open her > > > Quote
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 Jackie, What do you use apple pectin and pom juice for? One makes a jelly and then you flavor jelly with pom juice? ..or make a gel to put on arthritic joint? I must have missed a post. > > If I am correct, it has apple pectin in it..it is used to make jelly. > One can purchase it in the canning section in the grocery store. > > Quote
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 I was responding to a link that someone posted about pom juice helping arthritis. I was thinking about my 89 year old mother's excitement over how her hands can move now that she is using a table spoon of sure-gel ( an ingredent used for making jelly) to a cup of grape juice and drinks it...I was thinking out loud that it is possible both juices may have the same ingredent that helps with the pain and stiffness. > > > > If I am correct, it has apple pectin in it..it is used to make > jelly. > > One can purchase it in the canning section in the grocery store. > > > > > Quote
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 I think the benefits of pomegranates come partly from ellagic acid. I might be wrong, though. Quote
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 Here are some URLs on ellagic acid.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellagic_acid http://www.ellagic.net/index.htm Quote

" i don't know much about pom juice, etc., but i DO know my dad uses black cherry juice for his gouty arthritis.... & it works WELL. victoria [] Re: pomegranate juice, antioxidents >I was responding to a link that someone posted about pom juice helping > arthritis.
