Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease affecting mainly women between 35 and 60. It causes joint inflammation and can impact other body parts. Treatment aims to prevent joint damage using drugs and painkillers, with dietary supplements like omega-3s and cod liver oil offering additional benefits. Scientific research supports traditional remedies like emu oil, which may reduce inflammation and pain. However, emu oil supplements lack regulation, so quality varies. The MacDougall diet may also influence arthritis symptoms.
