One of the chronic diseases and the most widespread pain in the world are those of the rheumatoid type, such as arthritis and osteoarthritis to which is added the wear and tear of the joints, manifesting mainly in the elderly population, you can find relief in the natural anti-inflammatory properties of red wine.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a disorder of the immune system, whereas gouty arthritis occurs in conjunction with gout and psoriasic arthritis, but when it comes to establishing a relationship between the wine and arthritis, this refers specifically to rheumatoid arthritis.
La rheumatoid arthritis manifests itself when your immune system attacks the lining of the membranes that surround the joints (the synovial membrane), over time this membrane becomes thicker, being able to destroy the cartilage and bone within the joint, a situation that is more likely in women whose ages range between 40 and 60 years.
An investigation published in the magazine «Rheumatology»Found that people with rheumatoid arthritis who drank wine were likely to have fewer illnesses and fewer symptoms, such as less pain, compared to those who didn't drink. In addition, people who did not drink were four times more likely to develop rheumatoid arthritis, and the researchers also noted that the actual amount of wine consumed appears less important than how regularly the patients drank wine.
To keep in mind; other medical conditions such as Carpal tunnel syndrome, osteoporosis, heart problems, and lung disease often occur in people with rheumatoid arthritis.
