Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of high fiber multigrain supplementation on the level of clinical disease severity measures, blood inflammatory molecules, and nutritional status changes in RA patients.

Detailed description

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory, autoimmune rheumatic disease, resulting in progressive joint inflammation and destruction. At present, there is no known cure for this disease. As a consequence of the potential side effects, many RA patients turn to other alternative remedies such as specialised diets and/or dietary supplements in a bid to relieve their symptoms. Therefore, the current study aims to examine the effectiveness of high fiber multigrain supplementation on the level of clinical disease severity measures, blood inflammatory molecules, together with the nutritional status changes in RA patients, as compare with conventional drug treatments.
