I do not however, believe "flavonoids" are quackery.

The company, Aeron Biotechnologies, sold me their cryo-bank of cytosol and paraffin breast cancer tissues and their diagnostic subsidiary to fund their focus on Genistien oncology applications. They've done well with it. |
You haven't read many of my posts, Craig. I'm likely going in for shoulder replacement, (they want to do both) but my right shoulder is so painful that I have to sometimes use my left arm to get my right arm off the mouse and back to the keyboard.
I use Meloxicam and Voltaren gel and sometimes a lidocaine patch. For the left shoulder and the rest of my joints I try to eat sensibly with greens and fruit part of my daily diet. Also I haven't had any meat of any kind since 1984. Any.
