ARTHRITIS AND GOUT – DIET

A diet of natural foods is of primary importance when treating rheumatoid arthritis. Follow the diet given under the heading ‘Natural Food’ (see pages 463-9). Only unadulterated, unrefined foods should be eaten, just as the Creator provided them in nature. In preparing them we should be guided by the same principle: food should be left in its natural state as far as possible. Cooked animal protein, such as meat, is detrimental according to my experience. For better results, adopt a predominantly vegetarian diet and include plenty of raw foods. Curds or cottage cheese, as animal-derived protein, are good for you. If you cannot abstain from meat altogether, it is permissible to eat a little beef or veal, but pork, sausages, and processed and canned meats should be completely out of bounds. Caution should be exercised as regards fats; they should be of vegetable origin, cold-pressed and unrefined. Keep off heated fats or fried food.
