Rheumatism is caused by the inflammation in many of your joints. When you have this condition, you experience severe pain in your bones, muscles, and joints. It is commonly experienced by middle-aged and elderly people and often involves problems in the internal organs such as the heart, skin, kidneys, and lungs. Symptoms include joint and bone pain, swelling, body pain, stiffness of the affected muscles, and fever.

Rheumatism is often caused by presence of toxic products in the blood, eating food that is high in acid content, acid-alkali imbalance, and mental, emotional, and physical stress. Heredity and hormonal disorders can also cause rheumatism.

Fortunately, there are ways to avoid this condition. Experts such as Dr. Kinga Vereczkey-Porter have some tips on how you can steer clear of rheumatism:

*Do not apply too much pressure or impact on the affected area.

*Take short, periodic breaks when doing manual labor to avoid straining the joints too much.

*Avoid twisting, gripping, or clenching your hands repeatedly.

*Drink teas that are known to treat rheumatism. Alfalfa tea is great for preventing rheumatic contractions.

*Limit consumption of food that may cause rheumatism. These include meat, refined carbohydrates, nightshade vegetables (those that contain solanine), and salty snacks such as potato chips. These types of food can lead to joint swelling and pain, and may have a significant impact on your blood sugar levels, leading to increased appetite and weight gain – which in turn can strain your joints.
