Résumé : | Arthritis affects millions of people throughout the world and while its treatment is usually medical or surgical, there exists an increasingly large body of evidence concerning the positive effects of nutrition on the condition. There are over two hundred forms of rheumatoid disease, with cofl(litiOfls varying in prevalence. In this important titie the authors have focused on osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the most cornrnon arthritic diseases with the largest body of dietary data. Including coverage of disease incidence and prevalence, pathology, aetiology and measures of disease assessment and clietary risk factors, Nutrition and Arthritis is a clear, concise and user-friendly book gathering the Iatest research to bring the reader information on: Micronutrients (e.g. vitarnins C, D and selenium), h)od supplements and their potential to ameliorate arthritis Polyunsaturated fatty acids, with particular attention paid to n-3 fatty acids Glucosmme and chondroitin The value of exclusion, vegetarian, vegan and other dietariry approaches Nutritionists and dietitians, including those working in the health services, rheumatologists, orthopaedic surgeons, general practitioners, osteopaths and commercial organisations involved in the formulation of dietary supplements vill find this hook an important and practical reference. Libraries in me(lical schools, universities and research establishments where nutrition, dietetics and food science are studied and taught will find il a valuable addition to their shelves. |
