Cartilage acts like a pad or cushion, protecting your bones at the joints during movement. In older adults and younger people who are very physically active, like athletes, cartilage may start to break down and become less cushiony over time. This can lead to friction and pain, especially in well-used joints like the knees -- a condition known as osteoarthritis. Your doctor may recommend pain relievers, supplements or surgery in extreme cases, but your diet can also help you manage your condition and even build new cartilage.

THE CURE FOR EVERY DISEASE

Modern medicine has been made into a god by a population of people who look to the doctors and pharmaceutical companies to save them. The rate of deaths from error at the hands of the medical establishment is equal to destroying six jumbo jets full of people every day! In 2000, the Journal of the American Medical Association reported that throughout the decade of the 1990's, a total of 225,000 Americans died each year as a result of medical treatments. Consider this is without even taking into account the fact that these figures are lower than actuality, since many errors go unreported or untracked. And these numbers represent deaths only. An estimated 1.3 million Americans are injured each year due to medical prescription errors. Modern medicine is nothing but cut and burn scientism, its practitioners the most brainwashed and mindless segment of the educated class. Medical school has been aptly compared to boot-camp where promising doctors are over worked, stressed, beaten-do

It has been referred to as the Whiteman’s Foot by Native Americans, as wherever they went, it seemed to spring up. and in some places, it is seen as a noxious, invasive weed. It is, however, a useful little plant. It has been used by many cultures the world over, and the Saxons considered it one of their nine sacred herbs. It was considered an early Christian symbol of the path followed by the devout and
