How can diet affect RA?
You may have heard claims that the right diet can provide relief from RA. Unfortunately, studies show that diet alone is not the answer. But diet is still important to your health, and it can impact the way you live with RA. The Arthritis Foundation recommends a diet low in saturated fats and calories, and rich in fruits, vegetables, and grains. Please consult your doctor before making any changes to your diet, and remember that diet is no substitute for treatment.
