(I kicked things off a few weeks back with my tales of Hailey-Hailey Disease, a chronic — and very irritating — skin condition.) Each week, in a Q&A or a personal essay, we’ll feature someone who’s living and struggling with a different chronic disease, and how they manage their life navigating such an enormous built-in obstacle. If there’s a specific chronic disease you’d like us to cover, tell us about it in our comments section, below (anonymously, if you like). In this week’s post, we talk with Simone Edwards, a 35-year-old wife, mother, career woman, and New York City resident who has suffered from Crohn’s Disea...

You do not need large amounts of vitamins.  You just need a balanced diet and good anti aging natural supplements to help you along.   It’s very difficult , if not impossible, to get every nutrient that you require every day from the foods that you eat.  Studies (conducted in the US and Canada) have proven that vegetables contain less nutrients than they had in the past, due mainly to soil depletion. Some of the most helpful antioxidants cannot be found in common every day foods.  For example, curcumin is one of the most potent antioxidants and na...

In fact, it can be caused by any repetitive activity in which the elbow is bent at a greater than 90 degree angle. This could include holding any kind of phone to the ear for long periods of time. It just happens that because cell phone use has increased exponentially and because people can now use their phones while walking, while driving, literally anywhere, some people are spending much more time on the phone than they did previously. And some of them are paying the price with painful hands and arms. Cubit...

Here is stated objective of the study: “To overcome obstacles to healthy eating by a community-based intervention promoting a Mediterranean-type diet in patients with rheumatoid arthritis or RA living in socially deprived areas of Glasgow.” What was this modest paper doing amongst all the high-powered papers on the molecular mechanisms of rheumatic diseases and the latest potent therapies based on insights into those mechanisms?The studyMethods: 130 female patients with RA aged 30–70 years (median 55), disease duration 8 years were rec...
