food that does not allowed to a person who has osteoarthritis?

Answer 1

You can eat anything. Doesn't affect osteoarthritis one way or the other.

Answer 2

If you read back on my lengthily explanation about osteo-arthritis in the severe degenerative stages, something I have, you can see I'm speaking with some authority on it. I have never heard anything like this.

I have been to the top surgeons in the state and the top neurologist, it was never mentioned to me after all the long talks we had about handling this disease.
There are natural health food people that have an idea that foods will cure anything but, I'm afraid this cannot be proven.

After the way I've live and the pain I've lived through, I need more then talk to try anything anymore.

Answer 3

I don't think there are any restrictions on food for someone who has osteoarthritis.



Self-Care at Home
Lifestyle changes may delay or limit osteoarthritis symptoms.

Weight loss: One study suggested that, for women, weight loss may reduce the risk for osteoarthritis in the knee.


Exercise: Regular exercise may help to strengthen the muscles and potentially stimulate cartilage growth. Avoid high-impact sports. The following types of exercise are recommended: range of motion, strengthening, and aerobic.


Diet: Antioxidant vitamins C and E may provide some protection. Vitamin D and calcium are recommended for strong bones. The recommended daily dose of calcium is 1000-1200 mg. The current guideline for vitamin D is 400 IU per day. Avoid more than 1200 IU of vitamin D per day.


Heat: Hot soaks and warm wax (paraffin) application may relieve pain.


Orthoses: These assistive devices are used to improve function of moveable parts of the body or to support, align, prevent, or correct deformities. Splints or braces help with joint alignment and weight redistribution. Other examples include walkers, crutches or canes, and orthopedic footwear.


Over-the-counter (OTC) medications


Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is the first drug recommended for osteoarthritis.


Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used for arthritis pain. These include aspirin, ibuprofen (Motrin or Advil), naproxen (Aleve), and ketoprofen (Orudis).


Newer OTC preparations include chondroitin and glucosamine sulfate, which are natural substances found in the joint fluid. Chondroitin is thought to promote an increase in the making of the building blocks of cartilage (collagen and proteoglycans) as well as having an anti-inflammatory effect. Glucosamine may also stimulate production of the building blocks of cartilage as well as being an anti-inflammation agent. Glucosamine was found to increase blood sugar in animal studies, so people with diabetes should consult their doctor first. A recent study showed that glucosamine slowed progression of osteoarthritis in the knee.


Arthritis self-help course: The Arthritis Foundation offers an educational program on the causes and treatment of arthritis. Exercise, nutrition, relaxation, and pain management programs are covered as well as ways to communicate with your doctor. Completion of the program reduced pain by 20% and doctor visits by 40%.

Answer 4

there is no food restrictions but allot of foods that you can eat can effect things. Try to maintain a normal diet of fruits and vegetables and healthy foods.
If you eat un-healthy then you can become overweight and then it will hurt you more. Just be health conscious and you will be OK.
Best of luck

Answer 5

You're on the right track! This problem was common in my family.

Avoid wheat and dairy. Try it for a few days; one day alone will not be long enough for you to feel a difference.

It can also be made worse by intestinal candidiasis, which is overgrowth of intestinal yeast/fungus.
