Alcohol as a Remedy for Back Pain

Here’s an interesting little snippet I found on wddty.com. As you may know (if you didn't you do now) as well as red wine I am partial to the odd glass of cider, not that processed stuff whose name I won’t mention, but is advertised heavily and has never seen an apple in it’s life. But the proper article, again I am fortunate in having two local establishments within walking distance, one serving Stowford Press, and the other Aspells, lovely stuff.

Right, the point is that in this short piece it mentions that research done at Leiden University in the Netherlands has proved that people who drink alcohol regularly are are far less likely to suffer from any type of arthritis, but rheumatoid arthritis in particular, where the risk was lowered from between 30% to an amazing 99%.

Alcohol as a remedy for back pain, whatever next? Click here if you want to read it, you need to join the site, but it's free and there's some good stuff there. I’m off to the pub. Until next time.
