   Researchers in Sweden suggest a gluten-free vegan diet provides help for rheumatoid arthritis patients’ hearts as well as joints.

   The study, published in Arthritis Research & Therapy, found the diet raised the levels of natural antibodies that fight the damaging compounds — phosphorylcholine — that cause the chronic inflammatory symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.

   The diet also protected against heart attacks and stroke by lowering cholesterol levels and lowering body weight, the study said.

   There’s no definitive evidence that any particular foods have an effect on joint pain or inflammation, some research suggests that oranges and certain fish oils may reduce joint inflammation in some people with rheumatoid arthritis. However, more research is needed to assess this possible benefit.

   If you believe a certain food increases your arthritis symptoms, there’s no harm in omitting it from your diet to see if it helps. But don’t exclude whole food groups or large numbers of foods without consulting a registered dietitian or your doctor.

   It’s important to eat a balanced diet and maintain a healthy weight if you have rheumatoid arthritis. Excess weight puts increased stress on your weight-bearing joints, increasing joint pain, stiffness and inflammation.

   I would suggest a diet that is not too taxing on the system. You want to stay away from high protein diets and consume lots of fresh fruits and veggies which are natures natural healers. Check out this site for more info:
