Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease causing inflammation in joints and resulting in painful deformity and immobility. It occurs, when your immune system mistakenly starts attacking healthy tissue.
You are what you eat especially when it comes to Rheumatoid Arthritis. Living a healthy lifestyle or just making better food choices will help with the inflammation and the flare up you get when living with RA.
About 1.5 million people in the United States have Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Nearly three times as many women have the disease as men. In women, RA begins often around age 30. In men, it often occurs later in life.
