A member asked:
Is there a specific diet that would reduce the pain/inflammation from osteoarthiritis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Most with osteoarthritis will benefit from an anti-inflammatory diet. See http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/ART02012/anti-inflammatory-diet for details. Additionally, many with osteoarthritis experience relief by avoiding nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, peppers etc.). Research is needed but this helps about 1/3 who try it: http://www.tahomaclinicblog.com/degenerative-arthritis-osteoarthritis
