One little known inflammatory is artificial sugars, like Splenda or Sweet-n-Low. I've known folks to stop using those and have a complete reversal of inflammation. Pears are supposed to be anti-inflammatory. Don't give up! It is just a mystery to be solved. Robbinr

Really? Artificial sugars? I have them all the time for years and I'm also having bad pain in my hip and knees. Hmmm, interesting, and I'll buy more pears also. I'll TRY to stay off splenda, etc., but I've had them for years. Now I have to ask -- what of the fake sugars may not be inflammatory? I don't eat that many sweets, but I do have sugar-free jello, also lots of coffee with splenda, etc., every day. Adding so many calories to my diet -- what shall I do?

Hello robbinr and ty for info on artificial sweeteners. What about the natural sweetner Stevia?
