This disease of course has limited me physically and I’ll be damned if I’m going to let it change what I love to eat. So I depend on medication.

This is different for each of us. I have found that dairy products negatively affect me as well as sugars. Healthy eating seems to be individual. I have really noticed that since I have been on this site. I did 90 days with no dairy including whey. At 45 days the swelling in my hands was gone and they looked normal. Three years later I tried to add dairy back. After two weeks my fingers were swollen. I avoid dairy. Good luck finding what works best for you.

I follow an anti-inflammatory eating plan. Gluten-free, dairy free and only natural sugars. It doesn’t cure me but I do believe it helps.

Everyone is different! They say the anti-inflammation diet, but then that conflicts with my gastroparesis diet. Note foods you eat and see what causes more of a flare. Any RA Medication may work for someone but not for someone else. Best wishes. xo

All in moderation works for me.
