Foods to Eat and Avoid With Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in the joints. This inflammation can lead to pain, stiffness, and swelling. There is no cure for RA, but there are things you can do to manage your symptoms. One of the most important things you can do is eat a healthy diet.

There are some foods that can help to reduce inflammation and improve your joint health. These foods include:

Fruits and vegetables: Fruits and vegetables are rich in antioxidants and other nutrients that can help to reduce inflammation. Some good choices include berries, leafy greens, and cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and Brussels sprouts.

Whole grains: Whole grains are a good source of fiber, which can help to regulate digestion and reduce joint pain. Some good choices include brown rice, quinoa, and oats.

Lean protein: Lean protein is an important part of any healthy diet, and it can also be helpful for people with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Some good choices include fish, chicken, and beans.

Healthy fats: Healthy fats, such as omega-3 fatty acids, can help to reduce inflammation and improve joint health. Some good sources of omega-3 fatty acids include fatty fish, such as salmon, tuna, and sardines, as well as walnuts and flaxseeds.

There are also some foods that you should avoid if you have RA. These foods include:

Processed foods: Processed foods are often high in unhealthy fats, sugar, and salt, which can all contribute to inflammation. Some good examples of processed foods to avoid include chips, cookies, and sugary drinks.

Red meat: Red meat is high in saturated fat, which can contribute to inflammation. If you do eat red meat, choose lean cuts and cook them in healthy ways, such as grilling or baking.

Dairy products: Dairy products such as eggs, curd or milk can be inflammatory for some people. If you find that dairy products trigger your arthritis symptoms, it's best to avoid them.

Nightshade vegetables: Nightshade vegetables, such as tomatoes, potatoes, and eggplant, contain a compound called solanine, which can be inflammatory for some people. If you find that nightshade vegetables trigger your arthritis symptoms, it's best to avoid them.

Here are some Ayurvedic Ingredients and Food that may be helpful for people with RA:

Ginger: Ginger has anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. It can be taken as a supplement or added to food.

Turmeric: Turmeric is another spice with anti-inflammatory properties. It can be taken as a joint pain supplement or added to food.

Amla: Amla is a type of berry that is rich in vitamin C and other antioxidants. It is believed to help boost the immune system and reduce inflammation.

Khichdi: Khichdi is a type of rice dish that is made with lentils and vegetables. It is a light and easy-to-digest meal that is considered to be beneficial for people with RA.

Dal: Dal is a type of lentil that is a good source of protein and fiber. It is also a good source of iron, which is important for people with RA.

Some additional tips for eating a healthy diet for RA:

Cook at home more often: This will give you more control over the ingredients in your food.

Read food labels carefully: Pay attention to the amount of saturated fat, sugar, and salt in the foods you eat.

Make small changes: If you make too many changes at once, you are more likely to give up. Start by making small changes to your diet and gradually add more healthy foods as you go.

Find a support system: Having people to support you can make it easier to stick to a healthy diet. Talk to your friends and family about your goals, and find someone who can help you stay on track.

In Conclusion, It is important to note that everyone is different, and what works for one person may not work for another. If you are not sure what foods are best for you, it is a good idea to talk to your doctor or a registered dietitian.

‼️ content warning for talking about (necessary, healthy) food restrictions ‼️

Please don’t be rude about somebody’s dietary restrictions.

Sometimes people don’t even notice it in the little comments about how gross vegan food is, how bad for you dairy-free milks are, how everything gluten-free tastes like cardboard…people don’t choose their food intolerances!!!!

I have to use a lot of substitutes for MEDICAL REASONS, and I’ve had people tell me to my face how gross that is. Vegan cheese tastes like glue. Oh, you have to try a gluten free diet? That’s so trendy now, but really you don’t have to. The food is so bland.

I do have to, actually. It’s discouraging to hear how inferior your food is when there’s no other option!!!!! Please try to be considerate of people’s non-negotiable needs.

Also don’t be mean to people who do choose their own dietary specifications, that should go without saying. Be considerate and respectful of what people have to eat!!!

With love, if nobody is practicing unsafe or dangerous eating habits, mind your business ❤️

Anyone else got that thing where they HATE cooking so much they will avoid it at all costs, and the only way to make yourself not avoid it is be so FUCKING GOOD at making the few things that you like that you're FORCED to cook them just because the allure of them is strong enough to make your executives function?

Yeah.

Annoyingly I am a good cook. And I must suffer in order to enjoy the dishes I excel at. If I was bad at cooking I think there would be no hope for me in that regard tbh. Health hanging on by the thread of my ability to use spices intuitively.

[gramarobin]

So true! My rheumatologist had the nerve to tell me to cut out sugar😱 during the holidays! But if it would help alleviate the RA achiness I would do it...I think🤔

My Big Fat Weight Loss Campaign: Part 1—How It Began

I gave up on losing weight a long time ago. I have all my life found the subject of my weight a huge embarrassment. I was not fat as a child, but I was plump, and bullies discovered early on that they could make me miserable by singing “Fatty Fatty Two-By-Four” on every occasion. My father harped on my weight all the time. He was thin as a blade without making any effort, and couldn’t understand…

awww photos app keeps showing me pics of dothcat from a year ago and like. he actually looks so much healthier now :')

Hey so this isn't correct. If you don't have enough to run on, your body uses the fats it stored for later. That's why you have the processes to store them. Starving yourself is bad for your health, and overeating is also bad for your health. These things are both true, you don't have to pick one or the other because our bodies don't work in a black and white way; they're a lot smarter than we are. Your body will not sacrifice an essential process if you don't get enough food one day, it will simply use some of that stored energy. Your body uses glucose in your blood followed by glycogen in your liver, then fat tissue. We are extremely well adapted for that sort of thing.

Don't starve yourself, eat when you're hungry yes, but also if you decide for whatever reason that you want to eat less than you have been, you're not going to immediately damage your health or put yourself at risk unless you're underweight or you have a serious health condition already. It's your body and you should do what feels right for you.

Diet companies won’t tell you this but starving yourself is a lot worse for your health than overeating

[gentlethorns]

sigh. i love being chronically ill and not really knowing the root cause. like yeah i have pcos, inflammatory arthritis, degenerative disc disease, but i personally have an opinion that these things are all linked by something that is not diagnosed yet. there are other symptoms and shit i experience that don't have diagnoses yet that i also feel are connected. but even if i had a diagnosis it wouldn't change that i always feel like shit anyway. literally it's always something whether it's that i feel nauseous or have a debilitating headache or my neck is so tense i can't turn my head or my back is stiff and painful or the nerves in my spine are compressed and causing pain or my hormones are fucked up and making me miserable or etc etc etc. i think back to three or four years ago when i was able to be active and social and engage in hobbies bc i was healthy and not in constant moderate to severe pain and that person from back then is someone i don't even recognize anymore. i don't know if she's who i am and current me is the stranger or if the person i am now is who i'll be for the rest of my life.

The Connection Between Oral Health and Systemic Diseases: How Your Mouth Reflects Your Body's Health

When it comes to understanding our health, we often overlook a crucial indicator: our mouth. Oral health is more than just a beautiful smile; it serves as a window to the body’s overall health. Research consistently shows that conditions like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and even respiratory issues can manifest first in the mouth, offering critical early warning signs (Sanz et al., 2020).…

I hate how people act like cravings are so fucking bad like god forbid I crave a cheese pizza and some random “doctor” on the internet is like “no that actually means you have a severe vitamin deficiency that can be solved by eating this super fruit 5x a day! Oh and it can cure autism”
