Not yummy, but useful:

Cod Liver Oil really can slow the onset of osteoarthritis

86% of pre-operative patients with arthritis, who took Cod Liver Oil capsules daily, had absent or significantly reduced levels of the enzymes that cause cartilage damage compared to 26% of those given a placebo oil capsule. In addition, the result showed a marked reduction in some of the enzymes that cause joint pain, in those patients taking the Cod Liver Oil.

“To put this into perspective, it is highly likely that if the Queen Mother had taken Cod Liver Oil as a young adult, she may have needed her first hip replacement much later on in life.”

Still, I think I’ll continue to hope that by the time my joints deteriorate that much, they’ll have come up with a better solution.

…
People are also more likely to lie in real time- in an instant message or phone call, say- than if they have time to think of a response.

Now I have justification for not wanting to talk on the phone!
