Researchers have attempted to do serious studies of some unusual arthritis treatments, such as the traditional raisins-in-gin remedy. The idea is to soak some raisins in gin for seven days and eat nine daily. A researcher at the University of North Texas has looked into this, and he maintains that it brings people with arthritis significant relief. He uses ninety-proof gin and has discovered that while soaking the raisins longer makes no difference, increasing the dose does. Maybe the remedy s effectiveness is due to anti-inflanunatory compounds in the juniper berries from which the gin is made. Or maybe it s the alcohol. The researcher is now prescribing thirty-six gin-soaked raisins a day, and he insists that his arthritis sufferers feel much happier. I bet they do.
