In the Winter 2013 magazine we are told that there may be a scientific paper on diet and RA in the next issue. There is no shortage of opinions about diets that "may" or "could" help to relieve symptoms of the disease. Many of these views are contradictory. However there is widespread agreement that consuming the right fats and oils that supply essential fatty acids is likely to be helpful. There is an article called Good Fats for Successful Aging about fats and inflammation in the latest newsletter from www.foodmatters.tv which is a website that I recommend.
