Vinegar is acidic and will not help in reducing acid waste deposits as
far as I know.
Drinking alkaline water however, will in time help dissolve these
deposits, and will also add oxygen to the system, further improving
health.

http://www.alkalife.com/  gives some explanations for these effects in
the science and health section. They also sell a water alkalising
supplement.

Brooks Bradley has posted a protocol that has been effective in
treating arthritic conditions. I take the liberty of reposting them
now.

===========================
Hello Mr. Fairchild.  My name is Brooks Bradley.  I am one of the
principals
in a non-profit, charitable, research group conducting activities in
several
areas----one being various treatment protocols involved in
experimental
procedures for relieving  the effects of arthritic conditions.
Without
elaborating upon our current studies, I will take a moment to outline
an
experimental protocol we are presently using.......which is simple,
inexpensive and ENORMOUSLY PROMISING.  Our volunteer experimental
subjects
(6) are all older human males, ranging in age from 71 to 81 years of
age;
and suffering from varying degrees of degenerative arthritis.....most
especially in the knees and shoulder joints.  The protocol used on all
six
subjects is as follows:  Glucosamine Sulphate
(500mg)/chondroitin(400mg)
combination tablet----one each 3 times daily:  One 285mg capsule of
Microhydrin (silicon hydride specially processed), twice daily----a
one-time
course of CMO (cetyl myristoleate from animal sources) comprised of 60
capsules administered at the rate of 6 every twenty-four hours.  There
are
some special dietary considerations to be employed while taking the
CMO.
This is especially applicable to consuming very little meat during the
10
day program, and to maintaining a one-hour window before any
meal---and/or a
two-hour window AFTER a meal......when taking a dose of CMO.
    Our preliminary results have been nothing short of  ASTOUNDING.  T
his is
especially true relating to pain relief and joint mobility.  In almost
every
case there has been a very substantial increase in the synovial
fluid....IN
ALL MAJOR ARTICULATING JOINTS.
We have been astonished at the degree of pain relief among the
volunteers,
especially considering the degree of cartilage loss and lack of
lubrication
present in the more severely stressed joints.  I AM THE 71 YEAR OLD
SUBJECT
IN THIS TEST PROGRAM., and the relief I  gained within the first 21
days,
from two severely compromised knees, is almost unbelieveable.  If you
are
interested in possibly invoking a similar protocol, I can refer you to
several sites on the internet that are reliable sources for CMO (we
have
used two of them and gotten very satisfactory products from them).
You can
procure Glucosamine Sulphate/Chondroitin Complex from any /Super
Walmart ,
in the pharmacy section----without a prescription (It is a naturally
occuring substance in the human body and is comlpletely non-toxic).
The CMO
protocol STOPS the degeneration process through turning off the
rampant T-4
cells in the articulating joint capsule areas---it is not a
pain-killer or
repair medium, but does a wonderful job of allowing the body's immune
system
to start rectifying the damage.  The Glucosamine/Chondroitin Complex
DOES
promote both connective tissue regeneration and synovial fluid volume
increase.  This substance is a very powerful PAIN REDUCER in
articulating
joints. Ours is a humanitarian effort.  We are very well funded;  do
not
solicit--OR ACCEPT---outside contributions for our work.  We have
discovered
that these two protocols work quite synergistically----together.  Feel
free
to email me if you are interested in possibly employing a similar
protocol----EXPERIMENTALLY, in conjunction with your VOLUNTEER
friend.  I
will be more than happy to assist you in your search .  Sincerely.
Brooks
Bradley.

  Dear List members.  Due to the overwhelming email traffic generated
by my
"accidental" on-list posting (1/5/99), I am taking this opportunity to
pass
on information on an ancillary procedure we have added to the basic
protocol utilized in our original evaluations.  While I have
previously
given this information to several people via private email, in an
effort to
convey this information to all of the rest....at one time, I will
outline
the modification now.
    This mod involved the addition of MSM (Methyl Sulphonyl
Methane)[three
#2 capsules daily), plus two proteolytic enzymes (bromelain---40mg;
and
papain---50mg), administered as one tablet each, three times daily.
Ideally, these are taken simultaneously with the
Glucosamine/Chrondroitin
complex tablets.  All volunteers in our study take their
GS/Chrondroitin
tablets at meal-time.  One interesting, serendipitous, result of this
latter addition is---the virtual elimination of digestive difficulties
in
All of the subjects adding this modification. This protocol
modification
has resulted in an approximately 30% increase in overall
effectivity---especially in response speed---as compared to the
controls.
    UPDATE P.S.  Based upon the continuing portion (long-term
analysis) of
our earlier, geriatrically-based, arthritis study, I am most pleased
to
report that evidence of regeneration of damaged CARTILAGENOUS tissue
seems
to be---dramatic---in some cases.  e.g.  One 74 year old male with
severely
compromised knee joints (with constant and severe lateral dis-location
problems) and suffering from painful...complete dislocation...of the
left
knee 4 to 6 times daily;  has enjoyed a frequency reduction down to an
average of ONCE every two or three days.  Additionally, he is  totally
pain
free in this joint----while abstaining from all pain relieving drugs.
Formerly, he was on a "pain maintenance" prescription involving the
equivalent of 8 eight aspirin daily.  A dangerous circumstance
requiring
continuous vitamin K supplements.  And this, after 35 years of
constant
immobility and discomfort.  Although this is anectdotal---and a single
case, statistically;  it is a 100% marvel to the gentleman involved.
Sincerely.  Brooks Bradley.
