Does vitamin d help arthritis?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Probably not: As best i can tell from my reading, low vitamin d may be associated with an increased chance of developing rheumatoid arthritis. Once you have it though, i don't see any evidence that taking vitamin d will make it better.
