Wondering if it's worth the effort to clean up your diet? 

Does it impact how you feel living with Rheumatoid arthritis? 

I can tell you with 100% certainty that YES it does!

I learned early on how focusing on quality, healthy food nourished my body at the cellular level. But even more than that, I've learned how it's a gift that keeps on giving.

You see, when you eat foods that support your body, you're empowering the cells deep within to do what they do best, take care of you. 

In return, they release anti-inflammatory compounds that not only give you more energy but also help drive down inflammatory levels...

What this does, in the long run, is better equip YOU to handle an RA flare if and when it rears its ugly head.

You have more strength, energy, and stamina to help move through the flare quickly, so you can get back to life.

Today I'm sharing more on this as well as 3 SIMPLE steps you can take to get started in making healthier food choices.

Here's a glance at what I'm sharing in today's episode...

  • My thoughts on how diet is not being discussed as part of an initial RA diagnosis
  • How the standard American/western diet is failing us and which ingredients are the worst offenders
  • Mindset tips to help you move past the thought of 'its too hard', 'I'm too much of a foodie', 'I'm the only one making changes in the family...it'll never work'.
  • The benefits of cleaning up your diet
  • Three SIMPLE actionable steps you can take to start moving toward a healthier way of eating.

Happy Listening!
