My Anti-Rheumatoid Arthritis Diet – More Good News!

Conclusions from My RA experiment. It appears that having been on my diet-cure for so long (about eighteen months), I had either developed some immunity to the effects of the foods which previously triggered my rheumatoid arthritis, or some repair/healing process had taken place which made those foods less able to affect me.

Either way, the good news is that my diet had additional benefits beyond removing all the symptoms of RA, benefits which may eventually allow me to enjoy normal foods again, permanently. For example, I have already confirmed that I can eat whatever I wish for one day out of a week, without triggering any RA symptoms, as long as I remain on my diet for the other six days.

There are so many vitamins, minerals, herbs, oils, creams, homeopathic dilutions, plant extracts, animal extracts and other food supplements for the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis. Do they work and if so what are the benefits?

In my case I found supplements and traditional treatments to be useful and beneficial in helping to manage my RA symptoms (prior to starting my RA diet development), and also in helping to repair damage and build health after removing the cause of my RA. However, it was essential for me to remove the cause of my RA, in order to obtain a life-changing outcome. Read more . . .

Rheumatoid Arthritis – Impact on Loved Ones

I just wanted to say to all those who are close to, or taking care of someone with rheumatoid arthritis; stay positive and look after yourselves too. The painful effects of RA can often be harder in many ways for loved ones (and especially carers) to cope with, than for the sufferers themselves.

As a person who has RA, I can confirm that it is possible to live with it and even hide much of the pain from loved ones (or so you imagine). However, I have seen and experienced the effects on others for myself; they worry about you, you worry about them worrying about you, and so on. Read more . . .

RA and the Pain and Inflammation Gang – A Detective Story

01-12-11 by Brian Darby2 Comments

In this post I want to explain in more detail what led me to the design of a diet which eliminated all the symptoms of my RA effectively ‘curing’ it (as long as I stuck to the diet).

I have read hundreds of books relating to RA and thousands of articles and papers over the years. This is how in my case, I separated fact from fiction, followed clues, uncovered and tested the evidence in a massive effort to find the true cause(s) of my RA.

I tried two main approaches over a 28 period; I consulted various medical specialists, had lots of tests, and studied a huge amount of research material including alternative and complementary treatments & therapies. Read more . . .
