7.Cook Up Some Beans
They’re another tasty way for you to get fiber and protein. Fiber can ease inflammation caused by your RA, and protein can help keep the muscles that support your joints strong. Beans are an excellent meat-free source of protein. Enjoy them in chili, as a side dish, or whipped into a healthy dip like hummus.
8.Don’t Forget Calcium and Vitamin D
They may help prevent the bone loss that can come with taking corticosteroids for your RA.
You can also eat beef liver and egg yolks for vitamin D, leafy greens for calcium, and fatty fish and fortified items like cereal and orange juice for both. Supplements may be an easier way to get the recommended amounts, though.
