My dad just had a hip replacement due to arthritis,
my mom has severe arthritis.
Many old 1800's pictures of ancestors
show them in wheel shairs due to athritis.

Recently my dad visited and we talked quite a bit
about diet, grains, milk, etc.  He didn't buy any of
it.

Then again, maybe I got him thinking.

Oh, well, I'm cutting the grains out for me so I don't
end up the same.

P.S. I'm type A- and the eat-right-for-your-type diet says I should be
        able to eat grains?!?  That is why I don't subscribe to that
theory.
