Osteoarthritis vs. Rheumatoid Arthritis - AI Podcast

Published 6 months ago

Osteoarthritis develops slowly from cartilage breakdown in weight-bearing joints, while rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune attack that causes rapid, symmetrical joint inflammation

Rheumatoid arthritis typically strikes small joints symmetrically (both wrists, hands) while osteoarthritis affects single joints like knees, hips, and spine asymmetrically
Eliminating inflammatory vegetable oils, boosting vitamin K2 intake and sipping bone broth help rebuild cartilage and reduce joint inflammation naturally
Supporting mitochondrial health calms autoimmune inflammation by increasing your body's natural "off switch" for inflammatory responses and joint damage
