Nutrition and Healing Arthritis

My mom suffered from severe arthritis in her right wrist (among other ailments) and she had several surgeries on it, which ultimately only brought temporary relief. It got to a point where they were going to fuse the joint permanently when my dad found a nutrition clinic in Florida that might be able to help. We spent 6 weeks there in 1972 while my mom was treated by a Dr. Melvin Page, who balanced her body chemistry through diet and supplements. The main thrust of his diet was nothing processed, especially no sugar or white flour. Her arthritis went away entirely, but if she even ate so much as a breath mint containing sugar, she would have a raging fever in her arm within minutes. Dr. Page wrote a book called “Your Body is Your Best Doctor” (among others) and he followed in the footsteps of health and nutrition pioneers Drs. Weston Price and Francis Pottenger.
