What are the foods that need to be avoided in rheumatoid arthritis?

Rheumatism:Any disease marked by inflammation and pain in the joints, muscles, or fibrous tissue, especially rheumatoid arthritis.

The inflammation happens due to the accumulation of toxins.

Toxin accumulation within the body happens in many ways due to lack of available CONSERVED VITALITY to throw the toxins out of the body.

Yes, food is one of the major aspects which consumes a lot of VITALITY within the body.

Simpler the food, lesser the consumption of VITALITY.

Simple food is defined as the food with maximum evolved or cohesive water.

The cohesive water is the water which is evolved in the produce of trees/plants through its roots, through osomsis process.

RAW fruits and vegetable has maximum of cohesive water.

Try and increase the consumption of RAW Fruits and Vegetables to improve the CONSERVATION OF VITALITY.

Alongside, improve your QUALITY OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES AND SLEEP.

Please do not forget to work on your STRESS FREE MENTAL STATE, too!

Thank you...

Rheumatoid Arthritis is a kind of inflammation in the body.  The cause of this inflammation could be multi-factorial.  It is like an allergy to certain kinds of food and most likely animal protein. 

Avoiding or eliminating animal protein like milk, cheese, curd, paneer, meat etc can greatly alleviate the pain related to rheumatoid arthritis. 

In order to cure it completely one needs to be on strict whole-plant-based-diet for ninety days along with regular physical activity and ample sleep.

Thanks

This condition is caused by inflammation.

Common foods which causes inflammation are animal products in particular milk protein, sugar, processed foods which have unknown chemicals and refined oil. Eating too many grains or cooked food increases pain since it is acidic.

So please focus on overall lifestyle not just foods. Instead of 'avoiding' have more of fresh fruits and salads so the opportunities to eat other kinds of food reduce.

All heavy to digest foods that leave an acidic residue on digestion. Because body has to then draw from its mineral reserves to neutralise the acid. And that leads to mineral deficiencies, calcium potassium sodium etc & related diseases such as arthritis. Recently I saw a video of Acharya Mohan Gupta. He's a renowned naturopath, Delhi based. Loved what he explained. See here - https://youtu.be/CVnOfOh2ecI

नमस्ते,

अधिकतर अम्लीय भोजन जैसेेेे -चाय, चावल, चीनी ,अचार ,मिठाइयां , नमक - नमकीन, ठंडे पेय पदार्थ ,दूध व दूध से बने उत्पाद, मांस इत्यादि के सेवन से भोजन का पाचन अवशोषण व निष्कासन सही तरीके से नहीं हो पाता जिससे वे आंत में ही सड़ने लगते हैं, रक्त दूषित हो जाता है, अम्लता की अधिकता की वजह से जोड़ में दर्द शुरू हो जाते हैं ।

• नींद- प्रतिदिन रात्रि को 7- 8 घंटे सोएं- इससे शरीर से अशुद्धियां बाहर निकलती है व कोशिकाओं का निर्माण होता है ।
• प्रतिदिन गुनगुने पानी व नींबू का सेवन करें- इससे यूरिक अम्ल का स्तर घटता है ।
• भोजन में अधिकतर क्षारीय पदार्थ जैसे - मौसमी फल व हरी पत्तेदार सब्जियों का प्रयोग करें , रक्त में क्षारीयता संतुलित रहती हैं, रोग प्रतिरोधक क्षमता बढ़ जाती है।
• प्रतिदिन प्रातः सूर्योदय के बाद और सूर्यास्त से 1 घंटे पहले धूप में व्यतीत करें ,इससे शरीर को पर्याप्त विटामीन डी व ऊर्जा प्राप्त होती है।
• सप्ताह में 1 दिन एप्सम नमक से स्नान करें ।
• पूरे शरीर की मालिश व वाष्प स्नान -(सप्ताह में 1 दिन) शरीर से अशुद्धियों को बाहर निकालता है।
• रात्रि में आलू के कुछ टुकड़े काट लें उसे एक गिलास पानी में डुबा दे प्रातः खाली पेट उस पानी को  पिएं ।
• निषेध -समस्त प्रकार के अम्लीय भोज्य पदार्थ ,अनाज ,गेहूं, मांस , नशीली वस्तुएं , अचार, मसालेदार चीजों ।

With animal products in your meals, acidity in the body increases and the body will suck all the alkaline enzymes to maintain homeostasis.  

If high acidic foods ( not coming under category of fruits veg veggies greens majorly) are injested, their ph is less than normal, the stomach does not need to make it acidic to process. The pancreas won’t produce the alkaline buffers to the blood to neutralise the acidity raised by the stomach. So this acidic food in its state reaches the next few levels like the duodenum which are not geared for this ph level and bile from liver and gallbladder is called to rescue this balance. As this bile continues to be overproduced, liver becomes tired. If liver and gallbladder are not in a good working condition, enough Bile is not made available in the duodenum, and this is how acidic food reaches the intestines. . As liver weakens, the body cleaning  is also compromised and blood continues to carry acidic  toxins that have the liver could not manage and have reached the intestines where nutrients get absorbed. I went to acidity in the blood goes up, the blood first uses of the alkaline buffers present in its blood plasma to bring the blood closer to an alkaline pH. Unfortunately because of continuous supply of acidic foods to the body, the level of alkaline buffers is often very low. If the blood pH value falls below this range, then all the bodily fluids such as urine, lymphatic fluid, semen, Cerebrospinal fluids, saliva everything starts becoming acidic. This disrupts all the cellular function in the body and disturbs the balance. To prevent such a state of decline, the blood starts reducing its acidity by neutralising it with one of the most alkaline substance in the body that is calcium from the bones. So blood starts dissolving the calcium from the bones in its self to reach an ideal pH level. This is also called leaching  of calcium. Blood is a supplier and also a retriever . It will choose parts of the bone where it can leach  very quickly such as the ends of the bones . As it continues to do so, that part of the joint weakens that’s producing a pain and inflammation. There will also be severe obstruction of blood flow, the viscosity of blood will be thicker. All these factors lead to the accumulation of toxins across the body.

Start juicing in the morning till 12 PM. Start your day with half a litre of cucumber juice followed by fruits for next hunger. Do not have any cooked breakfast. In the afternoon have vegetable Salads with greens.  Only for dinner add to wholefood plant-based cooked dinner with 30% millets and 70% vegetables cooked without any oil ( very important). Add yoga pranayama as much as possible and improve as health gets better. Remove dairy eggs meat fish absolutely from ur life on all forms. Remove sugar , fried foods , ready to eat foods from packets etc.

नमस्ते

कारण- शरीर में अम्ल (acid) बढ़ने से जो प्रदाह (inflammation) होता वो ही इसका मुख्य कारण है। inflammation अहार की अशुद्धि, तनाव, बिना भूख के भोजन, सही समय की नींद नहीं लेने से हो सकता है। 

समाधान - आकाश, वायु, अग्नि, जल, पृथ्वी ये पाँच तत्व आपके शरीर में रोज़ खुराक की तरह जाना चाहिए।
