At any rate the following is my paper. I am not a doctor or in the
medical field. I have been struggling with pain for a long time prior to the knowledge I heard of last October. One comment is that we stopped eating organ meats a while back and maybe that contributed to the state of affairs and the large amount of pain killers that are filling the Drug Store shelves. Here goes:

Hi,
The amino acids in the gelatin will stop most of the pain we contribute to arthirtis, cleaning the lymph system, reduceing calcification, and flushing the body of toxins will also help. If one needs help after all that, obtain New Chapter's Zyflamend, which is an herbal Cox 2 inhibitor (obtain at Vitamin Shoppe) that is actually good for you. Read about the Columbia University study on the product at www.newchapter.com. There is little need for damaging NAIDs, if one follows these steps. Of course some of these things will take time, if they have not been taken care of for a long time. One example of the magic of gelatin is the lady who handled my escrow in Santa Clara; two week after I told her about it I received a paragraph of thank you jane, her hands were finally working again. Love and light, jane

I have had bone to bone knee joints for at least 10 years brought about by misalignment of my spine. When this was corrected by a NUCCA Chiropractor the joint damage remained. Well by pure luck about 4 months ago, I heard the end of a lecture on Coasttocoastam.com and the last statement was we can grow organs with gelatin. The next day I started on the two tablespoons of gelatin and to my utter amazement the scraping in my knees and the pain in the rest of my body joints started to disappear.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gelatin:
www.greatlakesgelatin.com
After about two months of using 2 tablespoons/day of unflavored
gelatin, the pain in my body is nearly completely gone and the bone to bone scraping in my knees is markedly reduced.
I also found a purer form of the unflavored gelatin. It is produced by Great Lakes Gelatin. I found it here in Albuquerque in the Vitamin Cottage. Go to www.greatlakesgelatin.com, read the product analysis. If you decide to use the product and can not find it in your local health food store, either have them order it, or contact Great Lakes Gelatin 1-800-232-0328. If you have a large family, you may wish to order it from Great lakes Gelatin in a six pack, there is order information on their web site. Order the A type (Porcine), it comes in 1 lb. containers. The gelatin does not spoil, just store the unopened containers in a cool place. The opened container will do fine on your kitchen counter.
I would guess that anyone having pain in their joints or their muscles or any other part of their bodies would benefit from two tablespoons of gelatin daily. I can not believe the good results I have had in such a short time. My knees were rubbing bone to bone and this condition is almost healed in six month's time. If I was younger and my spine had not been missaligned, I believe I would have had quicker results, but believe me I am delighted with the results I have had. Even my skin and muscle tone has changed, and a collection of wrinkles are
dissolving. but what is happening to my knees is wonderful. A lady
tried it and two weeks later I received a paragraph of thank you Janes because her hands were working again. The Amino Acids in this porcine gelatin are apparently easily absorbed by the body and are in the right amount to support the collagen without the contamination of sugar or sugar substitutes which are more likely to reduce absorption.
When you stop to think about it, all the connective tissue in the body is collagen based. If it dries up and loses its natural elasticity it will certainly contribute to discomfort in every area in your body. Not just your nails and your hair, but your skin, intestines, nerves, ligaments, muscles, joints, eyes, etc., all of which are dependent on collagen. It seems we can drink all the water we want, but if we lack the amino acids provided in gelatin, we are still out of luck. If you are finding wrinkles in your skin, you might well consider yourcollagen is drying up. Even children's growing pains and victims of Fibromyalgia may well be relieved with gelatin.
You can eat Jell-O everyday and that would help, but Jell-O is loaded with sugar or a substitute, which most of us are trying to avoid. You can make unflavored gelatin with a can of pineapple crushed pineapple, it is delicious and fresh tasting. Or dissolved it in cold water and then add fruit juice either hot or cold, also it can be dissolved in cold water and added to soups or stews. It has no flavor so it can be used in a cup of hot tea after it is dissolved in cold water or add it to your morning oatmeal or even sprinkled on a salad or dips.
Another asset is that the cutaneous material from which the gelatin is derived does not bond with the chemicals and pesticides found in the tissues of meat. Any how if you are interested in getting rid of pain ingesting 2 Tablespoons of unflavored gelatin each day is a step in the right direction, you will start to feel the results very quickly.
Silica, Carlson Labs Norwegian lemon flavored Cod Liver Oil, Flax Seed Oil, Borage Oil, Evening Primrose Oil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Vitamin C, lots of greens with EVOO and lemon juice and/or Braggs vinegar are
additional assets. Remember, chlorophyl (contains the minerals) is not soluble in water only oil and one of the best oils is Extra Virgin Olive Oil (cold pressed if possible and contained in metal cans). Remember to put the vinegar or lemon juice on the salad before the oil. Stay away from high fructose corn syrup, Splenda, Aspartame and soda pop and avoid processed foods. Eat natural, organic meats and dairy and lots of raw or slightly steamed vegetables. If possible get your 15 - 20 minutes of sunlight each day.
If your drink needs sweetening use Stevia or Agave Nectar, avoid other sugar substitutes unless you check them at www.mercola.com. While you are at Dr. Mercola's web site, check out EFT (Emotional Freedom Therapy) it is easy and it works. He offers the manual for this therapy on the internet, just type in EFT in his search rectangle or go to =Click&Advanced=True&TargetURL=http://www.emofree.
com/downloadeftmanual.htm>, including a free download of the 79-page EFT Manual (it includes all the basics). Those wishing to save time and dive right in can get our very affordable training videos . Something we can all use these high energy
days.
Gelatin is not the ends all that bees all, if your spine is out of
alignment you may need a NUCCA Chiropractor (mine was Dr. Wendy Lanser in Sunnyvale in the Wright Medical Center). Massage is an added ingredient. Exercise, a good diet, and meditation help, also the intent for good health and healing. Meir Schneider claims we should move every body joint a minimum of 20 times a day, check his web site
http://www.self-healing.org/ for more information..If you are having digestive problems, I suggest you go to www.healthmedicineinstitute.com and search the audio section for Dr. Len Saputo's advice. Then locate his book on Ultimate Digestion. Also, read his article on the Photon Stimulator.
If you have acid reflux, start making a drink with a tablespoon of
Braggs vinegar a couple times a day and use it in your salads, until the discomfort is gone. Stay away from caffeine, it contributes to acid reflux. Avoid microwave cooked food. The intense heat changes the molecular structure of the food and turns it into an aggravation for the digestive system..

Himalayan mined salt:
Normal table salt is toxic due to the bleaching, processing and added chemicals, these toxins contribute to swelling just like any poison.. Himalayan pink fine salt is mined in the Himalayan mountains and unlike sea salt it is not exposed to sea contaminants, yet it is rich in the 87 minerals the body needs. Using this instead of normal or sea salt you will feel a wonderful state of being immediately. I found a source to obtain food grade Himalayan fine pink salt at a reasonable price. It is www.saltworks.us. A five pound bag is $27.45 plus $8.00 for shipping. I suggest everyone uses this nutrient source instead of regular salt. I could tell the difference immediately plus it reduces ones craving for
salt. This change of salts is important, because we need a cleansupply of minerals.

Whatever happens I send you all my love and my prayers for peace and your well being. :-)
I believe it is best to use the energy wasted on pain on something more productive. Here is to a pain free 2006 and on.

Additional Information:
Just for kicks, make note of the fact, the article you sent me and most every suggestion in the medical field is take calcium supplementation. The people who follow this advice are taking more and more calcium and are still in pain, never realizing the pain is due to their stressed collagen. Osteoporosis does not create pain, it creates weaken bones that break easily.
For the life of me, I can not understand why the medical profession
studies and teaches about ever system in the body and neverbroach the subject of collagen support. They know that collagen is in every part of the body yet they do not look at it as a system and they apparently do not know how to support it.
Another thing is the noise about glucosamine, now they are finding out it doesn't do that much good. I can not take it anyway because my body does not like it causes bleeding ulcers on my skin. Glucosamine is a large molecule and it is difficult for the body to absorb, so the body tries to get rid of it.
It comes in two other forms Glucosamine HCL and N-acetal Glucosamine. These forms have smaller molecules, I have tried the both, but my body still rejects them.
Don't let your friends take Fosamax, until they read the article on this pharmaceutical at www.mercola.com. The lawsuits are now lining up against this bone damaging product. It stops the body producing enzymes that carry away dead bone cells so overtime the skeletal structure weakens. I consider it cosmetics for thedoctor's X-ray machine.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This article contains some very valuable information. It is extremely difficult to get the bone back into the skeletal system along with sustaining it with absorbable nutrients, there must be greater effort placed on not getting rid of it in the first place.
Phosphoric acid in cola's and used to tenderize meats is a major cause of calcium removal. The blood demands 1% of all the calcium in the body at all times, phosphoric acid combines with the calcium in the blood and removes it through the urine. Then the blood in turn removes it from the skeletal system. Alcohol, large amounts of sugar, diuretics, and acidic diets also contribute to this problem. Also remember starches turn in to sugar in the body.
Organic raw greens with extra virgin olive oil are a good way to get magnesium, but hardly ever a part of the American diet. Greens must be taken with a good oil because to obtain the nutrients from the greens the chlorophyl must have oil, since it is not soluble in water,if it were the plants would not be green. Organic food is recommended because it has a better chance of providing the nutrients the body so desperately needs. Look up the raising and juicing of wheat grass at the www.wheatgrassman.com web site also a juicer that juice's wheat grass is the Samson.
We must be very careful of the type of calcium we take in, the amount, rate of absorption and the required minerals, other wise many of us are calcifying our bodies. Inadequate amounts of magnesium, and poorly absorbed calcium, will turn the calcium to stone blocking the blood vessels. While many may think their body pain is from osteoporosis, it may really be due to calcification or unsupported collagen. There is a five minute test being given now to find out if the calcium is piling up in the system, and it is uncovering the fact that people are so scared of osteoporosis they are causing aging and heart problems due to calcification.
Obtaining calcium out of green vegetables in the safest source and
exercise plays an important part of metabolizing the calcium into the body. This is why I think gelatin is so important, when collagen
ligaments dry up or are not growing and expanding with the changes in the body, the body begins to hurt all over, as the pain increases movement slows down and this lack of movement contributes to osteoporosis. The amino acids in the unflavored gelatin sustain the collagen, so the body pain diminishes and movement can proceed conformably.I bought a Samson Juicer, and a wheat grass grower and am looking forward to having fresh wheat grass juice daily. . I looked it up on the internet and found it juices wheat grass and is easy to clean. Thanks for that recommendation too.

Stengler Speaks on Bone Health
As readers of Daily Health News know well, I often callnaturopathic physicians (NDs) to discuss health issues because they know so much about both body function and its interaction with our environment. While medical doctors (MDs) focus on and treat a specific problem and body system, NDs look at the entire system to determine the best ways to create optimal health.
Starting in this issue, I will be talking each month with Mark Stengler, ND, about a variety of health news. Dr. Stengler treats a wide variety of patients at his clinic in La Jolla, California, in addition to being the author of more than 15 books (including two best-sellers) and of Bottom Line's newest print newsletter Bottom Line Natural Healing . This month, Dr. Stengler and I discuss the latest news and best practices for maintaining strong bones that will protect you from crippling fractures later in life.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OUR AGING BONES
With the rapidly increasing number of Americans who are age 50 and older, maintaining strong bones has become an especially critical issue. Already 8 million women and 2 million men in this country suffer from osteoporosis, the bone-wasting disease that makes them vulnerable to bone fractures, especially in the hips, wrists and spine. But even more frightening, Dr. Stengler is concerned about the approximately 34 million more Americans who have low bone mass -- the precursor to osteoporosis -- and it's not just people over 50. Studies have shown that preliminary stages of osteoporosis can start in people as young as age 30, especially women. That means that everyone, not just those who
are graying, should pay close attention to the health of their bones.
Fortunately, research on ways to improve bone health is ongoing and as a child to drink your milk because calcium helps make bones strong. And that is true -- calcium is indeed important for bone health. But a new American study of 2,000 participants ages 70 to 79 surprised many people because it showed a direct correlation between magnesium and increased bone density. The researchers found that for every 100 mg of magnesium intake per day study participants ingested up to a point, there was a 2% increase in bone mineral density (BMD). This is a significant increase when it comes to bone density.
Dr. Stengler points out that the importance of magnesium to bone health shouldn't really be surprising, for a number of reasons. The body holds 60% of its magnesium in the bones.Magnesiumin fluences how calcium is transported out of the gastrointestinal tract and formed into bone. It also helps to control hundreds of enzymatic reactions in cells that influence bone density. In addition, this busy mineral is required for the formation of proteins that help form bone.
MISSING MAGNESIUM
Most people are familiar with magnesium and assume that they are
already getting it in the foods they eat. But Dr. Stengler firmly
disagrees with the belief that people are getting enough magnesium. While the mineral exists in whole grains, nuts, legumes, green leafy vegetables, fish and meat (beef, poultry and other animals), the sad fact is these are not the foods that fill the plates of many, perhaps even most, Americans. Furthermore, a number of common medications drain magnesium stores. The list of drugs is lengthy and includes some diuretics and antibiotics, antifungal medications, asthma medications, immune suppressing corticosteroids and cyclosporine, among others. Drinking alcohol, especially in excess, also depletes the body's magnesium.
In fact, Dr. Stengler says that when he tests patients for the level of magnesium in their blood, he finds the vast majority have far from optimal levels.
SUPPLEMENTING MAGNESIUM
That means most of us need magnesium supplements. There are a number of different types on the market and it can be confusing when selecting which to take. Dr. Stengler says to avoid magnesium oxide
because it is the least well absorbed, but the others -- magnesium chelate, magnesium glycinate and magnesium citrate -- are all well tolerated and absorbed.
Dr. Stengler says most people should have a total intake of between 500 mg to 750 mg a day of magnesium from all sources, but it must also be combined with 1 gram to1.5 g of calcium (approximately a 2:1 ratio of calcium to magnesium). It is best to work with an ND to outline what is best for you.
For optimal bone health Dr. Stengler generally assesses his patient's diet and recommends additional supplementation as needed. Nutrients he recommends include the following (figures are average recommended levels)...
* Calcium -- 500 mg to 600 mg twice a day (total 1 g to 1.5 g a day)
* Magnesium -- 500 mg to 750 mg a day
* Boron -- 3 mg a day
* Zinc -- 30 mg a day
* Manganese -- 15 mg a day
* Vitamins: C -- 500 mg, K -- 500 mcg, B-6 -- 25 mg, B-12 -- 50 mcg,
D -- 800 IU (for people who already have bone loss, prescribed
dosage of vitamin D may be increased to 1,000 to 2,000 IU daily
for a limited period of time)
* Strontium salts -- 680 mg daily
* Folic acid -- 400 mcg daily
* Omega-3 essential fatty acids -- 1,000 mg total of EPA and DHA daily
Building and maintaining bone health calls for more than just magnesium and other vitamin/mineral supplements. Other important factors that Dr. Stengler stresses include having an overall healthful diet and regular participation in weight-bearing exercises such as walking, running, weight training and the like.
