Been researching food and how Inflammatory Arthritis can react to certain foods. It's not Paddison so don't sigh 😁. I am keeping notes on what I eat and how I feel. Apparently - Red meat contains high levels of saturated fats - can exacerbate inflammation. ( Don't eat meat except fish) Fried foods. ( Don't eat) Processed foods ( nope) Sugary snacks/refined flour (sometimes - all gluten free) Gluten (nope) Alcohol ( occasional glass of red wine) Dairy ( nope) Now the other interesting thing I have added to my diet which I haven't taken for a long time is salt. I consciously decided myself a while back not to eat it as I was under the impression it's bad for you. Black pepper I love. I bought low salt as it has much less sodium and more potassium. Now I wasn't great at Chemistry at school so I read up a little on the benefits of minerals - potassium and lesser sodium and how they work with cells. I decided to add my low salt to my food and a sprinkle to my glass of water. I have noticed I don't need the loo every 5 minutes like I did with the water I drink and I am feeling better. Less pain, less swelling. Lack of energy and tiredness is my biggest gripe just now. Rheum said that is a classic symptom of Fibro. I am seeing my Rheum soon and going to chat to her about my findings with salt. Please research and chat first to your own doctors before changing/ adding anything. I'm simply sharing how I am doing with lifestyle changes. Any feedback FEEDback haha ( pardon the pun)😂 on this would be fab Thanks Xx

Thanks for sharing this! Your regime is similar to mine. So do you take vitamin supplements?
