“Can certain foods trigger rheumatoid arthritis flare-ups?”
Are there any specific foods which can trigger rheumatoid arthritis flare-ups? I was recently diagnosed and am trying to prevent flare-ups in any way that I can.

There’s no cure-all diet for rheumatoid arthritis. But if you suffer from RA symptoms such as joint pain and inflammation, it’s smart to stick to a nutritious diet and avoid foods that may make RA symptoms worse.

Gluten allergy can be confused with RA. Start a gluten-free diet and get an IgA anti GPT. The diet takes at least 4-6 weeks to work.
