3/7/2008: Hi Water and Salt: There are so many reasons for some diseases and conditions developing. Your explanations are the basic clinical descriptions of what physiological causes might contribute to the rheumatoid arthritis and what natural or medical treatments may or may not support a healing. I am interested more in finding out whether anyone knows of a connection between copper mining and any type of arthritis or working with metals, building
or use of electrical metal tools possibly being a cause. Also, whether genetic damage can happen. Everyone has heard about "Black Lung" being a result of coal mining, but I haven't heard about anything being connected to any type of metal mining. Thanks for the input. I have studied alot in the past about cleansing, etc., I appreciate your review of that. 21stCentury.
