Okay, everyone knows that exercise is essential to help prevent disease and improve health and fitness, however in the case of rheumatoid arthritis sufferers the situation is a bit different. RA sufferers can often find it difficult and perhaps even impossible to do any kind of useful exercise due to pain, inflammation, fatigue, and restriction of movement. Also, the reasons why an RA sufferer should exercise regularly are slightly different from those of the rest of the population (although the benefits are similar, just more critical for RA sufferers). Until fairly recently, I hadn’t realised the significance of these differences and as a result of my research into exercise and rheumatoid arthritis, I’ve now given a much higher priority to this component of my recovery.

The Causes of Rheumatoid Arthritis are Known! It Can be Treated Cured and Prevented
Millions of people around the world are needlessly suffering from rheumatoid arthritis and many other chronic diseases which can be prevented, treated, and often reversed with diet and lifestyle medicine. This has been thoroughly established, researched and proven beyond doubt at this point. Why then, in almost forty years of suffering with rheumatoid arthritis have I never been made aware of this treatment option by any of my ‘health care’ practitioners?
Whether a patient has rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, heart disease, hypertension, diabetes or any other chronic disease, the first thing any physician should do is to explain the overwhelming benefits of a whole food plant-based diet and other health promoting lifestyle changes.

Rheumatoid Arthritis – Never Stop Trying to Cure It!
This post is for those rheumatoid arthritis sufferers who are trying to identify the cause(s) of their disease so that they can begin to reverse it and subsequently cure it (achieve permanent remission).

It will be easier for some people than others, but ultimately I believe any RA sufferer can achieve permanent remission. Read more . . .
Miracle Cures for Rheumatoid Arthritis – Where Are They Now?
Have you ever seen the headlines: “Scientists Discover Miracle Cure for Arthritis!” or “Great News for Arthritis Sufferers!” or “Arthritis Breakthrough – New Drug blah blah blah!” and so on? I have, and I’ve been reading their associated ‘news’ articles for over thirty-five years, yet somehow, today, the only mainstream treatments used for rheumatoid arthritis worldwide are still; NSAIDs, DMARDs, and Biologics. So where are all those ‘miracle’ cures and treatments then?
The problem with these kinds of hyped news announcements is that they falsely raise the hopes of arthritis sufferers and make it that much more difficult for us to maintain an optimistic and positive outlook. Read more . . .
Best Anti-Ageing Diet and Telomere Protective Lifestyle
I just wanted to make a quick post highlighting some relatively new studies I’ve just read supporting the anti-ageing benefits of a whole food plant-based lifestyle. The research indicates that a diet high in vegetables and fruits significantly slows down telomere shortening while inclusion of meats and refined oils accelerates telomere shortening.
Telomeres are chromosome-protective caps made up of lengths of DNA. Each time a cell divides telomere length is slightly reduced. Once the telomeres become too short to maintain proper protection (or disappear altogether i.e. cell death), chromosomes become more susceptible to genetic damage. Read more . . .
