Diet Quality and Its Relationship with Antioxidant Status in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
A direct contribution towards destructive, proliferative synovitis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has been attributed to reactive oxygen species action. Some nutrients are considered to be capable of improving the oxidant/antioxidant status in RA; however the impact of diet composition on the antioxidant capacity of serum has not yet been studied in this disease. The aim of the study was to assess the relationship between diet quality and antioxidant status in patients with RA and healthy contro...

The Development of Novel Therapies for Rheumatoid Arthritis
Abstract
Background—Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic, inflammatory disease that affects approximately 0.5 to 1 percent of the adults worldwide and commonly results in joint destruction and significant impairment in the quality of life. RA is considered as an autoimmune disease with unknown etiology. Many pathogenic pathways of RA have been revealed recently, which led to development of various novel therapies.
Objective—The current treatments of RA include 4 categories: non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ...

Dietary Habits and Nutrition in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Can Diet Influence Disease Development and
Clinical Manifestations?
Abstract: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic, autoimmune disease characterized by joint involvement, with progressive cartilage and bone destruction. Genetic and environmental factors determine RA susceptibility. In recent years, an increasing number of studies suggested that diet has a central role in disease risk and progression. Several nutrients, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids, present anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, featuring a protective ...

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 ...
