From: "Bob Harrison"  I do not see arthritis problems

The problem with this anedotal evidence is that any commercial beekeeper who
did get bad arthritis would have had to give up and so Bob would not be
meeting him.

Both my parents had bad arthritis and I am clear, so far.  Due to taking
glucosine sulphate plus cod liver oil daily in my view, rather than the 100+
stings I must get a year .  But I could believe stings stimulate the immune
system - the venom has to be neutralised.
