Research Notes on Rheumatoid Arthritis Naturopathic Treatments
In treating rheumatoid arthritis, naturopathic medicine works to reduce medication side effects, reduce the severity and frequency of symptoms, and reduce a patients dependency on prescription medications. Many naturopathic physicians recommend rheumatoid arthritis patients change their diet and lifestyle, increase certain vitamins and minerals, and take a variety of herbs in order to assure successful treatment. Because of the all-natural nature of naturopathic medicine, it takes longer to see positive results from therapy than conventional treatment.1
Fast Facts:
- Herbs such as burdock, juniper, and alfalfa may be recommended.2
- A vegan, gluten free diet may be suggested by your naturopath.1
- Quitting smoking, incorporating gentle exercise, and enjoying plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables are the most commonly recommended naturopathic remedies by both naturopaths and conventional medicine practitioners.1
