According to a 2007 study from Sweden, having 3 alcoholic beverages per week cuts the chances of developing rheumatoid arthritis by 50%.  Apparently alcohol inhibits the imflammatory process. 

Don't know if the same principle applies to Sjogren's.  Don't everybody volunteer to research this at once!

I've always been a little nervous to be in a clinical trial, but I'll give this a shot (no pun intended!)

Hi Janna!  So glad to be participating in this with you  ;)!

I think alcohol inhibits a lot of processes doesn't it??

Patze i think you can get done for Walking ( or maybe in your case stumbling) under the influence of alcohol. Also where is your pic gone girlfriend?

Either way i'll be in the trial. Don't know if i'll make three drinks though. I'm a cadburies drinker. A glass and a half and i'm anyones. Anymore and i'm everyones. Ohh that's naughty.
