Health & Wellness: 5 Worst Foods For Your Joints
Trivia: Journey's Chart-Topping Song
in partnership with…
Good morning from RetireHub,
It’s Friday, and today we’re diving into a fun and relaxing way to unwind: adult coloring! As always, we have exciting deals, tips, and more to brighten your day!
Brace yourself... because you may end up throwing out a lot of the food in your fridge after you finish reading today’s email.
You see, Maryland physician Dr. Brian Paris says many so-called "health foods" are actually the cause of sore, stiff joints that make you feel miserable.
"If you’re in constant, chronic, excruciating agony and don't feel well, it has to do with what you’re eating... and just as important... what you’re not eating but should eat," says Dr. Paris.
Dr. Paris found certain foods marketed as being healthy… actually contain a toxic nutrient your immune system sees as the enemy.
So, every time you take a bite of one of these foods... your immune system unleashes its "army" to attack this nutrient.
And since this nutrient enters your bloodstream once it’s digested... your immune system starts attacking even healthy tissue and organs... causing burning in your joints and muscles.
The good news is... this problem is EASY to fix.
"You don't have to completely change your diet. Just eliminating these 5 foods from your diet - including a certain kind of vegetable - will do wonders to your life," he says.

Why Life After 60 is the Perfect Time to Start Painting
A few years ago I was looking after a gallery exhibition. Sometimes artists have to share this duty for joint exhibitions and this was my turn.
During a quiet moment on a Saturday morning I noticed a man stop outside the open gallery doors and look in. He then declared in a loud and smug voice, “You guys must really be suffering these days!” He then turned around and walked off.
Wow! I was stunned. But after a while I realized how lucky I was. Not only was I surrounded by beautiful art, but I could be an artist, too. Imagine being so cynical that you feel compelled to make snide remarks like that poor fellow?
