Grain alternatives to wheat and it’s relatives also contain their own types of glutens. Corn contains zein, oats contains avenin, rice contains orzenin, and so it goes. I have SLE, Celiac and a slew of other autoimmune conditions. The improvement in pain levels and neuropathy has been profound since I removed all grains and pseudograins from my diet. Joint pain and neuropathy have all but disappeared without these foods. And no bloating. What a relief! My own rheumatologist is pretty impressed. He says he wouldn’t have thought of these other grains being culprits too.
Thank you so much for your channel. I have RA and fibromyalgia and a couple of other autoimmune diseases. I found that number 1 for me is good gut health! No sugar! No artificial sweeteners. Honey was ok with me. Everyone’s body is different however the gut is SOOOO IMPORTANT
Clear & easy to understand video. I come back to watch this video every few weeks to remind myself of the foods to avoid. The hardest food to avoid is fast food.
Someone needs to be very strong, love their health and have great will power in order to sacrifice all the food which is so delicious and alternate to healthy eating !
Thank you for this informative video. I am in the process of being worked up for SLE. I removed sugar, starch, and ultra-processed foods from my diet 1 year ago because of joint pain I attributed to a medication I was taking. It did reduce pain to a manageable level. I don’t drink alcohol and only thing I consume from your list on a regular basis is salt, because it doesn’t occur naturally in whole food. 😊
Thank you Doctor for this informative video, I have rheumatoid arthritis, two years ago I changed my diet and started doing 10 hours of mixed exercise (Pilates, calisthenics, running and waking) per week. Today the arthritis is still active but it is almost imperceptible.
Sugary drinks don't contain sugar any longer, instead they contain high-fructose corn syrup which is very refined that causes inflammation throughout your body. I believe this is the cause of fibromyalgia.
Great video! I know that my food choices are poor and causing me pain. It’s really difficult to not eat sugar - I feel deprived but my hands will thank me 😢
I have SLE. I’m totally sensitive to every cheese except Feta. Cheap cheeses leave me practically crippled in my joints. Absolute poison. Beer also. Scotch is my drink of choice when I imbibe. 1 or 2 at most.
Shalom, God bless and keep, guide, heal you, fellow christian. Soup are nice, smoothie, vegs stew with fish, chicken or lamb, chestnuts stew with turkey...
Foods containing oxalates, histamines & salicylates can also worsen arthritis pain. Try an elimination diet to find what works for you! We're all different; what works for one person may result in agonizing pain for another!!
I just found out earlier this week i have lupus. Seems like everything i eat absolutely destroys my stomach and makes me feel crazy bloated. Idk what to do. Makes me where i dont even want to eat.
I'm really sorry to hear that you're going through this. It can be tough to navigate dietary changes with lupus. Don't hesitate to reach out to a healthcare professional for guidance; they can help you find a plan that works for you.
When you're living in poverty like me you eat what you can afford..i was never a big meat eater,junkfood eater or fond of sweets and soda etc but still i got diagonesed with RA..with limited resources to good healthcare i just have to make due
Excessive alcohol is dehydrating too, auto immune patient should keep themselves more hydrating as i have read, n i do. Yes, stress has caused me this disease, when i was preparing my Undergraduate medical examination. And not even a single history in past 3 generations in either side of my family.(paternal and maternal)
CORN, GLUTEN AND DAIRY MAKE ME VERY SICK 🤢I SWELL AND MY JOINTS ARE INFLAMED INCLUDING MY STOMACH BLOWS UP AND HURTS. I HAVE LUPUS, FIBROMYALGIA AND HYPOTHYROIDISM.
And really doctor, i admire your work alot, i had alot of tears in my eyes, even after being a doctor, i didn't able to figure out how to control it. I got worried about my future, my marriage life, my pregnancy... as i have to go through all these in future. 99% times i feel myself, i cnt live a normal life n go for any pregnancy, as it may cause damage to foetus and my madications , somehow will have adverse effects on my growing foetus. I may sound stupid , but my pains r so so worst , i knw, side effects of every single drug, and dangers of this disease on each n every organ. But life style modification in my case is not possible, untill i m post graduate... as duties r so worst, n not even a single doctor understand my problem, when i limp , i drag my body, many times effusions in joints, on usg... i have seen many best doctors in india, but not even a single doctor i found is good. I will connect with u online some day. Thank u so much, for your words. Even a doctor can be a patient... people should understand that.

Any dairy I consume is always organic from a reputable source. Is this harmful as well? Always in small amounts like anything I bake or butter on toast
We need salt and water to regulate our blood pressure but we do not need excessive salt that is added to food to enhance its flavor and burn out our tongue.
Dr said "excessive salt". The key word is "excessive". What she said is correct. Excessive salt leads to other health issues and concerns. There is no research out there to promote the use of excessive salt.
