Thank goodness ...I finally found what I was looking for....found this in my old silver list emails.
Here is the content of an article about rebuilding bone/joints: Natural, effective, bone-joint-nerve rebuilding program 1. First, using accurate pH paper (not litmus paper from a pharmacy), determine which specific calcium your body is deficient in. Many Health Food stores carry this paper, which measures pH in .2 increments, not .5 like the pharmacy stuff. I can send it to you if need be. 2. Second, use a total trace mineral supplement such as Concentrace, available from Metabolic Solutions (check with your local Health Food store first, they may carry it). 3. MSM. Start with 1,000 mg in the morning and another 1,000 mg in the evening (with meals) for 3-4 days. After 3-4 days, increase to 2,000 mg per meal. If, after two weeks of this dosage level you are not pleased with the results, add another 2,000 mg just before bed. Shop around at the various Health Food stores for MSM, prices vary considerably. Try to find 1,000 mg capsules, not tablets, if possible. (Tablets don’t always dissolve.) 4. Glucosamine Sulfate. Take half the dosage as the MSM. If you can find Glucosamine Hydrochloride, use half of that amount (1/4 the MSM dosage). 5. Take your body weight, multiply that number by .40 (40%) and drink that many ounces of good water each day. For example, if you weighed 100 lbs, you would need to drink 40 oz of water each day (you would need to work up to it). No matter what you weigh, 60 oz per day is the most you would need to drink, unless you had a sweaty, strenuous line of work. "Good water" means steam distilled if you can get it, Reverse Osmosis is next best, filtered water is next (assuming a good filter – not the little fit-on-the-faucet-tip type), spring or well water is last. DO NOT DRINK CHLORINATED WATER. Start off drinking, say, one pint per day, slowly working up to the needed amount. 6. Unless you are too addicted, eliminate caffeine and alcohol, minimize or eliminate white sugar, and minimize sweets and sweeteners of any kind (use Stevia as a sweetener) until you have begun to experience improvement. (Absolutely avoid Aspartame whatsoever). Eat lots of vegetables, raw and steamed, the greener the better. Eat whole grains (brown rice, whole wheat, corn, rye, triticale, oat, soy, flax, amaranth, barley, buckwheat, millet, etc.). Eat steamed and raw vegetables 2-3 times more often than whole grains. Avoid white flour, white rice, white noodles (pasta), and other processed grains. Processed grains/flours leach calcium and other minerals from your bones and joints big-time. Among grains, whole wheat should be consumed the least. Today's wheat is a shadow of what it once was, and turns into sugar quickly in your body. 7. Reduce meats, especially commercial red meat. Commercial red meat strips calcium from your bones and joints significantly (full of steroids and antibiotics). Fish and/or chicken 3 – 5 times per week while rebuilding your body. Eat good eggs each day. Try to buy eggs either from a Health Food store or from someone who keeps chickens in their back yard. Pay the difference and buy organic chicken/beef (no steroids or antibiotics). Steroids (female sex hormones) leach large amounts of calcium and other minerals from your body, which aggravates bone-joint problems. 8. Curcumin: This is an extract from the herb, turmeric. It has a dramatic affect on inflammation-type issues such as arthritis, cystic fibrosis, fibromyalgia, arthritis, etc. 2,000 mg/day is the recommended dose, but some folks need more. If you cannot find it at a Health Food store, Metabolic Solutions has it. There are other effective supplement/therapies used to aid the body in countering various bone/joint/nerve issues, but these are essential to get started. This program has a very high success rate for people suffering from arthritis, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, MS, bursitis, post-polio syndrome and other bone/joint issues.
