Give up the egg yolks for three weeks. Make sure the meat is lean, and don't eat any fowl. You can give up anything for 3 weeks.

Then if it works, you can decide whether you want to live in pain or eat egg yolks.

When my pain was the worst, I was working on a cruise ship. This particular line didn't treat the entertainers well, and fed us what amounted to leftover food. Not knowing about egg yolks at the time, I would load up at breakfast with a huge plate of scrambled eggs (they were at least fresh) and made it my main meal of the day. I didn't know at the time it was the problem, but my hip and hands were so sore I could hardly walk or play the instruments. I bought emu oil, swallowed supplements to the max dosage, used heating pads and ice packs, and just about anything else I could find.

When I got off the ship I started investigating, and that's when I found out about the diet. I could tell the difference in a couple of weeks, and by the end of the first month, I was 90% pain free.

I love eggs and fried chicken. But I'd rather walk and play the saxophone than eat eggs and poultry.

And without all that inflammation, I'm sure I'll live a longer, healthier life (barring a tragic accident). To me eggs aren't "To die for"

How about you?

Bob
