Abstract

Long-term, dietotherapy is particularly important in the management of the rheumatoid diseases since so little is known of their etiology. The chronic character of these conditions, their capricious onset and exacerbations, and their unpredictable remissions can lead the patient to accept dangerous food fads.

Nutritional norms are given for treating nonarticular rheumatism, osteoarthritis, gout, arthritis due to infections, rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatic fever, systemic lupus erythematosus, progressive systemic sclerosis (scleroderma), and polyarteritis nodosa.
