Nutrition Interventions in Rheumatoid Arthritis: The Potential Use of Plant-Based Diets. A Review Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease, affects roughly 1% of the world’s population. RA pathogenesis remains unclear, but genetic factors account for 50–60% of the risk while the remainder might be linked to modifiable factors, such as infectious diseases, tobacco smoking, gut bacteria, and nutrition. Dietary triggers may play an inciting role in the autoimmune process, and a compromised intestinal barrier may allow food components or microorganisms to enter ...

Role of Diet in Influencing Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity Abstract: Background: Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) frequently ask their doctors about which diets to follow, and even in the absence of advice from their physicians, many patients are undertaking various dietary interventions. Discussion: However, the role of dietary modifications in RA is not well understood. Several studies have tried to address these gaps in our understanding. Intestinal microbial modifications are being studied for the prevention and management of RA. Some benefits of vegan diet may be ...

Diet and Rheumatoid Arthritis Symptoms: Survey Results From a Rheumatoid Arthritis Registry Abstract Objective—Patients with RA often ask if specific foods, popularized as “inflammatory” or “anti-inflammatory,” can improve or worsen their RA. We surveyed patients regarding diet and RA symptoms. Methods—We mailed a diet survey to 300 subjects in a single-center RA registry at a large academic center. Subjects were asked whether they consume each of 20 foods and whether these foods make their RA symptoms better, worse, or unchanged. Semi-annual registry data include demograph...

The role of diet in rheumatoid arthritis Abstract Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic connective tissue disease which develops in the course of an autoimmune inflammatory process triggered by environmental factors in a genetically predisposed person. One of the environmental factors is the diet. RA patients’ adherence to a healthy diet remains low, despite plentiful data confirming positive effects of some foods, e.g. fish rich in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), as well as the negative influence of unhealthy eating patterns, such as high consumption of fats and sugars, on ...

Anti-inflammatory Diet In Rheumatoid Arthritis (ADIRA)—a randomized, controlled crossover trial indicating dieffects on disease ABSTRACT Background: Many patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) report symptom relief from certain foods. Earlier research indicates positive effects of food and food components on clinical outcomes in RA, but insufficient evidence exists to provide specific dietary advice. Food components may interact but studies evaluating combined effects are lacking. Objectives: We aimed to investigate if an anti-inflammatory diet reduces disease activity in patients ...

Managing Rheumatoid Arthritis with Dietary Interventions Self-help by means of dietary interventions can help in management of various disorders including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a debilitating autoimmune disease. Dietary interventions necessitate a widespread appeal for both patients as well as clinicians due to factors including affordability, accessibility, and presence of scientific evidences that demonstrate substantial benefits in reducing disease symptoms such as pain, joint stiffness, swelling, tenderness and associated disability with disease progression. However, there is ...

Benefícios do uso de ácidos graxos ômega-3 em pacientes portadores de dores crônicas RESUMO A dor apresenta funções fisiológicas necessárias à sobrevivência humana, entretanto, em algumas situações, pode se prolongar, mesmo na ausência do estímulo algogênico inicial, tornando-se crônica. Sua percepção ocorre da transformação dos estímulos ambientais em potenciais de ação via nociceptores, que podem ser estimulados por citocinas que apresentam efeito inflamatório. Assim, o estado inflamatório potencializa o processo doloroso, causando sua manutenção e cronific...
