Have you ever tested your pH levels? I would be willing to bet you are very acidic if you are having issues with RA. I would highly suggest you read Anthony William first book. There is a whole chapter on RA in there. Even if you don't believe where his information comes from, I can tell you from experience that everything he suggests has worked wonders for me and my son who both suffered greatly from mercury poisoning. At one point I spent two years eating nothing but white rice and chicken broth because everything else caused an allergic reaction - so I totally understand how it feels to have a limited diet. His book is white with a xray chest on the cover. I don't usually recommend books but in your case I think it would help a ton! Or you can listen to some of his stuff online as well: https://www.hayhouseradio.com/#!/episode/the-truth-about-inflammation-

I will definitely check it out. I'm on pretty much the paleo/aip diet now and in several groups for that diet. The average person comes in puffy and inflamed and if they follow the diet, the puffiness and redness disappears in weeks and their gut shrinks dramatically. One group asks you to take a full body side "before" photo just for that reason. This amazing change happens for so many people. I think just getting them off the coloring and flavors makes a big difference in the beginning.
I've done the test strips in the past and I was good or only slightly acidic. I'm pretty sure I can find them here and will try again. You never know with the huge changes I've had with my food. Thanks for the ideas and I will definitely listen to the podcast, but I'm not buying books! I am trying to reduce my possessions since I travel now. Books are just too much :)
I totally understand! I actually don't buy physical books anymore either, I just buy it for a few dollars on amazon and then read it on my Kindle for Amazon app on my PC ;-)
I have tried it and I like it. Reminds me of grapefruit :)
