To add to the responses, Ayurveda acknowledges that each person is different, having a "metabolic type" (Dosha) that can change with the seasons, and with age,to a certain degree. There are foods that nourish the dosha (improving health) and there are other foods that will interfere. Improper use of foods over time can cause disease and arthritis - even if the foods are of high quality (organic, grass-fed, etc.). This leads to the many cleansing rituals that humans have used over the millennia, such as fasting and Panchakarma. -=mark=- On 3/29/16 3:11 PM, Sandy Rzetelny wrote: > Hi > > My niece told me that she had heard that there was an ancient Human fossil found of a Paleo man who had arthritis.
