No punch line, yes my wifes name really is Cindy (Cynthia to be precise) yes the raisins really do seem to make a difference.
Yes North Dakota and -20 is heck on old joints as well as damaged ones. VonMessa you should consider moving to Nevada, Arizona. Warm, dry, stable weather.

Milo, they are raisins, ie previously grapes, so you don't feed them wine. You soak them in Gin, cover them in gin actually, then leave it out to stew, marinate, soak into the Raisins, evaporate, and do its thing. I don't know why it works. Frankly at this point I don't care. Weather system moving into the Dakota's today, yet my aching joints still are not aching this morning.
When I find something that works, I like to pass it on. When I find something that works this good, is low cost, and might help a lot of other people, well it seemed like a natural for the O-club.
On Certo, it is a fruit pectin product used in making/canning jams and jellys.
Mix with Grape juice, and keep in the fridge. 1 package Certo in 64 oz grape juice, drink 6 - 8 oz daily) Because of its overall effectiveness and low cost it got a 5 star rating because it does triple duty. Relieving inflammation, increasing the flexibility of blood vessels, and lowering cholesterol. Don't take Statin drugs at the same time, they may not be absorbed well.
The drenched raisins got no rating because it doesn't work for everyone.
Did you have your drunk raisins this morning?
