It reduces decapeptide substance p (stuff in sinovial fluid that has a strong relationship to pain and also corrodes cartilage). It has been shown to be effective in about 60% of arthritis cases as a pain reliever and anti-inflammatory agent.<BR/><BR/>There is also a substance called DMSO (Dimethyl sulfoxide) - unfortunately not growable - that is pretty much a universal solvent and is particularly good at getting stuff through the skin (think ~needleless injection). In your position it might be worth investigating a mixture of DMSO and capsaicin (dried and powdered chillis/cayenne pepper/chopped fresh chillis in dmso should all work) as an emergency linament.<BR/><BR/>If you go DIY you want the hottest chillis you can find. Comes in handy for curries too...<BR/><BR/>I will try to find some more growable medicinals for your condition/climate.subgeniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06734870137496182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129333358952251907.post-6023907272117002782008-10-17T22:29:00.000-07:002008-10-17T22:29:00.000-07:00Poor guy- all he wants is to simply live simply. ...Poor guy- all he wants is to simply live simply.
