Ginger is a powerful antioxidant that has been shown to reduce nausea and may help relieve pain and soreness associated with rheumatoid arthritis.

Chicken

Chicken is a lean source of protein and may provide your body with the building blocks it needs to build healthy cells.

RA Cooking Tips

    Instead of chopping fresh ginger, try a refrigerated ginger paste.

  • Garlic

    Purchase jars of minced garlic instead of chopping your own.

  • Julienned Carrots

    Purchase matchstick carrots in the salad section of the grocery store.

  • Cans

    Use an electric can opener to open cans of water chestnuts and rice noodles.
