Key clinical point: Consumption of flaxseed for 12 weeks improved disease activity and reduced pain, morning stiffness, and disease feeling in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Major finding: Disease Activity Score 28-joints-erythrocyte sedimentation rate improved significantly in patients receiving flaxseed plus regular diet (RF; P = .001), but not in patients receiving flaxseed plus anti-inflammatory diet (AIF; P = .057) and roasted wheat plus regular diet (RW; P = .110). Significant reductions in pain severity (P ≤ .001), morning stiffness (P < .05), and disease feeling (P < .01) were observed in the AIF and RF groups.
Study details: This randomized controlled trial included 120 patients with RA who were randomly assigned to 12-week intervention with AIF, RF, or RW diet groups.
Disclosures: This study was funded by the Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran. No disclosures were reported.
