ABSTRACT
Nutrition habits and diet may influence disease development and course. There are no specific recommendations related to rheumatic diseases for a diet that would facilitate treatment. However, some research results suggest that various nutrients may affect the health of patients, especially in the case of inflammatory rheumatic disease such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Scientists have been trying to find a relation between inflammatory rheumatic diseases and diet but have never come up with any firm conclusions that would help in determining the model of a diet for such patients. Nevertheless, there are some consistent results that refer to the influence of nutritional behaviours on symptoms of RA. The article presents a review of the research showing that certain nutrients may be beneficial for the course of disease among some RA patients.
