It is certainly correct that fungus causes more arthritis than it cures.
However, extracts from some fungi/yeasts have been tested for treating arthritis. At this time, there is no _cure_ for arthritis -- no treatment will end the disease's progression and effects. Instead, these compounds may slow the progression or moderate the symptoms.
-- Cryptococcus neoformans
-- Phellinus linteus
-- Grifola frondosa

Imagine for a moment your arthritis completely vanishing right now.
If, in a moment, your pain and stiffness melted away. And your joints all of a sudden functioned like a well-oiled machine.
Like a magic wand was waived, you'd be able to jump up from your chair and run around the room like a kid.
And imagine that you'd never have to suffer as much as a pinch of arthritis stiffness or pain ever again.
I know this sounds impossible right now, but bear with me, because sometimes miracles happen.
It was a gift from a woman on the other side of the world. From the kindness of her heart, she took pity on my suffering and taught me how to completely reverse my arthritis.
Today, I want to do the same for you!

Fungus may rarely cause arthritis. There is no fungus that cures arthritis.
