That's interesting, but I'm getting 100% relief from MSM and now with the addition of CMO (Cetyl Myristoleate) I'm hoping for a permanent solution. Learned from the following recent post from Brooks Bradley (my apologies for the unauthorized reprinting):
After reading the original inquiry, and the list responses so far, I feel constrained to mention the superb effects of Cetyl Myristoleate (CMO) as an adjunctive support to the other......quite effective protocols mentioned. Some of the MOST intractable cases of arthritic insult (from among a rather large volunteer population) did not exhibit acceptable response.......until CMO became a member of our protocol grouping. It is difficult for me to over-emphasize the powerful role CMO performed in aiding these most-difficult-of-all among our experimental volunteers. Especially in its arresting of the progressive degrading of the articulating joint environments. Additionally, CMO was the only element (from those we utilized) that was ever successful in establishing an un-aided, long-term effect----one that in a very high percentage of cases.......did not require continued support or a repetition of the original protocol. Our own T.J. Garland is (I believe) a supplier of high-quality, economically priced, real CMO. Sincerely, Brooks Bradley. Thanks Brooks, so far so good. ----- Original Message ----- From: "someone" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, May 09, 2003 12:28 AM Subject: CS>OT: Boswellia serrata Effective in Treatment of Osteoarthritis > http://www.vrp.com/art/1004.asp?c=1052453667307&k=/index.asp&m=/vstyle.css > > "Boswellia serrata Effective in Treatment of Osteoarthritis > > Researchers have found that the anti-inflammatory herb > Boswellia serrata can relieve the pain of > osteoarthritis of the knee. > > In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled > study, researchers gave Boswellia serrata Extract (BSE) > to 30 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee.
