Inflammation is the enemy (NOT RA drugs!).

• Inflammation is the enemy because it creates more inflammation via a vicious cycle.
• It's not about having a mindset of avoiding medications at all costs but we must keep our inflammation low.
• Disease-modifying drugs and the biologic drugs when administered correctly, carefully, thoughtfully for the right symptoms normally provide far more benefits to a long-term healing plant then they do negative side effects.
• Medications, diet, exercise, stress reduction and supplements are 5 major tools in reversing RA.
