Hope this will help, as a Nurse you tend to notice differences in your patients wellbeing, as it is part of the care plan, IE Assesment, Plan, Impliment, Re-assess. The re-assessment also including, what the patient eats and any changes physiologicaly.
I noticed that all the patients who had Arthritus/and similar conditions, when they had eaten cheese in particular, dairy products or red meats, this would increase the pain along with decreased mobility. It has since been found through research, that these food sources do affect those with Arthritus, it stimulates what we call the Histamines, which stimulate the antigens which envelope IE the bacteria, the antigens normaly function as a protector of the body from bacteria, however if you stimulate it too much, it starts to attack the body, it attacks the synovial membrains, this is the tissue that is in between the joints.
when the synovial membrain is affected, the bones then rub together and causes pain and sometimes small noduels to form, sometimes, depending on what type of auto immune disease it is, deformity will also be evident. I am not very good at explaining things, but I hope it helps a little, the Doctor could probably give you a booklet explaining the ins and outs of the disease, better than me.
What I would suggest, is, if you want to see if this makes any difference, ask your GP if he can give you some advice, and a dietry plan, so you don't become defficient in any vital vitamins etc, when ommiting these food sources out of your diet.
