Introduction The diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis 12 years ago was devastating. After years of mainstream and alternative treatments I learned how to manage the disease and live within limitations. This is not easy for an A type personality who thrived on stress and activity! Realizing accurate knowledge would empower me I researched numerious books and scientific studies on Autoimmune diseases. One book stood out: "Extraordinary Healing" by Art Brownstein, M.D. I became proactive in my health care and found what works for me. Autoimmune diseases are especially challenging because they're chronic with no cure, while the cause remains a mystery. Remission with drug therapy is possible, but many can't endure the side effects or dangers. To deal successfully with Chronic Illness we need emotional support from family, friends, our peers and compassionate doctors to assist us with our healing systems. "We have a battle to wage and a war to win!" 'Good health to you' *Consult your Health Care Practitioner before making any changes to your diet.
