Other food items were then reintroduced one at a time in alternative treatments like dietary therapy. Although relatively few studies have been carried out on the to see whether any symptoms were elicited by the dietary challenge. Foods producing symptoms were then possible impact of dietary therapy on disease activity in RA, interest in this matter is growing as our understand-excluded from the diet. Both objective and subjective variables improved significantly, and a subgroup of ing of disease pathology and the effect of nutrients on immunity and inflammation increases. 33 patients were graded as good responders. However, the patients were only observed for 6 weeks, which is a Most clinical dietary therapy studies undertaken so far have focused on some form of dietary elimination. weakness in a study undertaken on patients with a chronic disease. Scandinavian health farms have long promoted fasting and vegetarian diets for patients with rheumatic diseases. In 1991, we published the results of a single-blinded controlled clinical trial testing the effect on disease In 1979 and 1983, Skö ldstam et al. [1, 2] carried out two studies to verify whether diet therapy could alleviate activity in patients with RA of dietary elimination combined with the vegetarian diet traditionally practised disease activity and symptoms in patients with RA. In one study, 16 RA patients fasted for 7–10 days and on Scandinavian health farms [5]. Fifty-seven patients took part in the study, 27 in the diet group and 26 in followed a lactovegetarian diet for the subsequent 9 weeks. There was a significant improvement in both the control group. The patients were followed for 13 months, making this by far the most comprehensive objective and subjective disease symptoms during the fasting period, followed by rapid deterioration when the study undertaken with regard to dietary therapy in RA. We found statistically significant improvement in both patients began on the lactovegetarian diet. In the second study, 20 patients with RA completed objective and subjective disease variables in the diet group compared with the control group. …
