Guest guest Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 I think the benefits of pomegranates come partly from ellagic acid. I might be wrong, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
