| Publisher Summary 2 |
| Noting that mainstream health care providers have been skeptical about nutrition therapies often prescribed for rheumatic diseases by alternative and complementary medicine practitioners, Coleman (Epidemiology Research Center, Marshfield Clinic Research Foundation, Marshfield, WI) introduces 15 chapters that comprise a review of current thinking on this topic of much confusion and interest to patients. Following overviews of clinical aspects of these autoimmune conditions, and how dietary interventions-- along with exercise and medication--may reduce the inflammatory process and pain, subsequent chapters examine specific nutrients and supplements in the management of conditions including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, lupus, gout, and fibromyalgia. General nutrition and rheumatology- specific resources are listed. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) |
