[AlternativeAnswers] Re: Stiff and aching joints

I've also been a vegetarian for several years and I've been much healthier than I used to be. Perhaps you need more omega-3 oils in your diet but I'd also give turmeric (with or without bromelain) a try. It is very good for the joints. I take 2 turmeric every evening and no longer wake up with stiffness in my hands nor any other joint problems.

Hope this helps.

Now, 8 months later, they are getting worse. In the morning I feel the pain when I get up. It gets better during the day, but I feel it as long as I move the joints.

I come from New-Zealand and I use manuka hony with good results. I have also been using Vitamin C for years with excellent results.I read an interesting study of people with High blood pressure and the use of Vit C. It was dicovered that those people with high blood pressure who took Vit C daily never had a stroke.( Vit C strengthens the cell walls)
