I found a great free arthritis newsletter. Each month it has over a
dozen articles on arthritis and health. Here is a link to the site.

Rusty, Rusty, Rusty...I believe you didn't just find this newsletter...it appears you probably write the newsletter because your email address is listed as the contact for questions. You're hyping a product called cetyl myristoleate (also called CMO) as a treatment for arthritis. You've done this in other message threads. The FDA has sent warning letters to others who hype this product and others (see http://www.fda.gov/cder/warn/cyber/2003/CFSANbacktoNature.htm) warning that they are making unfounded claims about this product and other products that may be illegal. Please do not post to this listserv again.

Anyone who has arthritis might want to look at the Arthritis Foundation web site instead. This non-profit organization posts information on conditions and treatments, advocacy, research, plus message boards, support groups, and resources to help you learn about exercises for arthritis, surgery, etc. See http://www.arthritis.org. According to the Better Business Bureau's web site (http://www.give.org) that collects and shares information about how charities spend their money, the Arthritis Foundation spends 81% of the money it raises on programming.
