Nourishment Notes

Eggs

Eggs are an excellent source of lean protein to help grow new cells. They also contain lutein that may promote eye health and choline important for memory.

Mushrooms

Mushrooms contain B vitamins which may help increase energy levels when tired. They are also rich in glutathione a substance that may help protect cells from inflammation in chronic illnesses.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes are rich in antioxidants, particularly lycopene. Lycopene has been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease, a condition common in those with RA.
