Rheumatism

Rheumatism

Medicine has grouped all ailments related to the musculoskeletal system under the name “rheumatism.” Specifically, it refers to various inflammatory processes affecting the joints and their components, as well as muscles and bones, which occur with pain, impairment of normal function, and even deformation of structures in one or more parts of the musculoskeletal system.

There are two types of rheumatism: articular and non-articular. Articular rheumatism affects the joint itself, involving the cartilage or synovial membrane. Non-articular rheumatism is caused by inflammation of periarticular structures such as tendons and muscles.

Symptoms

The clearest and most obvious symptom of rheumatism is pain, which can vary in intensity. It may be temporary pain associated with movement (while performing an activity) or a constant, persistent pain that prevents rest and normal life. In addition to pain, there can sometimes be stiffness and numbness in the joints. Other common symptoms include swelling in affected areas, occasional fever, and changes in other organs and systems of the body.

Nutrition for Rheumatism

It is advisable to follow a diet high in sodium. Vegetable oils rich in omega-3 fatty acids (sesame, soy, walnuts, etc.) are recommended. It is important to eat a balanced diet and maintain an ideal weight, as well as consume foods rich in fiber. Some recommended foods are: cabbage, turnip, lemon, celery, oily fish, fresh fruit, vegetables, whole grains, vegetable broths, soups, natural fruit juices, garlic, and onion. Foods to avoid include potatoes, peppers, eggplants, red meats, saturated fats, refined flour, refined sugar, sweets, and alcoholic beverages—or at least consume them in moderation.

Home Remedies

- Also chew a small amount of horseradish leaves, as it helps prevent “attacks.”
- To cleanse the body: prepare an infusion of dandelion and sarsaparilla, drink it after each meal.
- For rheumatism, it is very beneficial to take one clove of garlic daily, as well as drinking diluted lemon juice in water on an empty stomach to cleanse the body.
- To reduce inflammation: celery seed infusion, taken three times a day (before or after meals).
- To combat pain: prepare a decoction with one teaspoon of devil’s claw (harpagophytum) and take one-third of it before each meal.
