(7,754 posts)his joints. In addition to an import business, we used to buy very old houses and restore them after people had done horrible modernizations on them. He doesn't do too bad on carbs but he is addicted to ice cream which does make it worse. He is mostly concerned with taking things that make him feel rummy or sleepy. He's sort of type A which is of course how he got this way in the first place.
We can't get the really good CBD oils here but my sister lives in Spokane and we need to go there and get the best. She's a health nut and used to work in a medical dispensary there.
So yes, good suggestions. I also have arthritis and tried the Kraton but I could not get it down. I can't take large capsules and it's just too foul mixed with juice or whatever. He too avoids lots of aspirin and Tylenol because he was once a drinker and is very careful of his liver. His liver however is in great shape since he hasn't had a drink in 30 years but he is still paranoid.
I will talk with my sister about what might work for him. He needs sleep at his age. We both do. LOL.
